Perfect Distractions: Destiny’s Child ‘Say My Name’ (Cyril Hahn Remix)
Late summer sunshine and a remix like this. Saturday mornings don’t get much better. A slice of Sweden that hits the sweet spot quicker than meatballs and loganberry. Adored. Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Destiny’s Child ‘Say My Name’ (Cyril Hahn Remix)

Flyer of the year?
As I face the prospect of analysing flyer after flyer after flyer for my dissertation I can’t help but think few will top this beauty from Disco Deviant. Its just so on the button, or if you prefer, the beard. I love it. The night wont be bad either. So good Veet sales in Brighton may drop (its a girl thing!). It made me grin on … Continue reading Flyer of the year?

Perfect Distractions: The xx and the BBC Philharmonic, live in Bridlington
Strings and The xx? That’s me smitten, done for, lost for hours. Can’t think of anything else to say other than leave me alone, I’m having a moment. With The xx and BBC Philharmonic Orchestra. Like you do. Continue reading Perfect Distractions: The xx and the BBC Philharmonic, live in Bridlington
Perfect Distractions: Up Yours ‘Tonight’ Southern Fried Records
Lets rewind to fast forward. Its the only way to go. Especially when Hifi Sean and Severino are in charge. As this slice of acidic house proves its always best to trust a man with beard. And when there are two of them, well the result is a foregone conclusion. Trust the DJ – especially when they produce productions as fine as this. Hifi … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Up Yours ‘Tonight’ Southern Fried Records

Jesus wept, this is GOOD! Sod the end of summer, I’m keeping warm with this filth. Oh I can’t wait till some 6am dancefloor, a DJ with balls and getting a sweat on to this monster.

Acid is back but this time its got balls. … Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Noir ‘Satisfied’ NM2
Perfect Distractions: Waifs & Strays ‘Love On Another’ Leftroom Records
Sometimes only piano will do. No matter how fused, how fucked, only piano will do. Having had one of those weeks I needed a lift and Waifs & Strays delivered. Adorable, attention seeking and addictive. Check the Huxley & Matt Tolfrey remix for a darker tone. Or just return to the piano of title track Love On Another. It makes life shiny again. Buy it on Beatport Continue reading Perfect Distractions: Waifs & Strays ‘Love On Another’ Leftroom Records

Brighton and Hove Pride 2012: More please!!
Every year I promise I’ll take more pictures next time. I never do. I get caught up in the moment, okay the 72 hour long moment, and forget. Too busy playing tunes, hugging the longtime no see dolls and running from venue to venue, party to party trying to remember to eat something. Yes Brighton Pride. The one weekend that seems to last longer than … Continue reading Brighton and Hove Pride 2012: More please!!
