Dreaming of crumpet
I’ve just made a mess in our kitchen. Rummaging for a snack. And I came back with a carrot. A bloody carrot. It’s nul points you see and that’s all that matters this week. And for the next 19 weeks come to that. Because after much thought, dodgy Xmas pics and jean shopping frustration (big waist + long legs + lesbian = grrr!), I’ve the … Continue reading Dreaming of crumpet
Department of Records – Wolf + Lamb vs. Soul Clap
Since Erlend Øye dropped his DJ Kicks in 2004 I’ve always consumed the comp with a passion. Hot Chip, Booka Shade, Annie, The Glimmers, Tiga, Carl Craig. Each to their own and each dear to me. This consumption is set to continue as I can’t get enough – no just can’t get enough – of the kook kool of DJ Kicks latest Wolf + Lamb … Continue reading Department of Records – Wolf + Lamb vs. Soul Clap
Perfect distraction 16.01.11
I’ve been writing of things of beauty. And so the soundtracks been simple. Inspired by DJ Affy’s Desert Island Disco I raided the bush. And all was sweet on my Sunday afternoon. ‘On a balcony in New York. It’s just started to snow. He meets us at the lift like Douglas Fairbanks, waving his walking stick but he isn’t well at all. The buildings of … Continue reading Perfect distraction 16.01.11

My life in pyjamas
Hot. Cold. Hot. Cold. Hot. Cold. Hot. Cold. Hot. Cold. Hot. Cold. Bored. Finally after weeks of nearly properly poorly my immune system has broken down. And I’m oink ridden. H1N1 is here and I’m exhausted; coughing and spluttering, sneezing and freezing, infectious and demanding, sweating and aching. I’m now Lucozade fuelled, ODing on Vicks, craving Soothers, praising the kind soul who invented balsam tissues … Continue reading My life in pyjamas
Most played?
I just did the most played thing on iTunes. Hopeful that the house soul in me would win. It didn’t. This did. Says it all. Kinda. Continue reading Most played?
A New Year Resolution per minute
A certain list based post made me think. Cheers Linzi. See we have to many lists, me and my Queen. On the fridge, in my study, in our diaries. Sync, print and…….left. Longingly looked at as we distract ourself with Dr Who and disco naps. Oh to complete. Still if lists be the food of life, I’ll write on. Lusting for completion with a cheeky … Continue reading A New Year Resolution per minute

Crash, bang, whallop what a year!
So here we go – skidding, sliding and sleighing our way out of another sound year. A year full of surprises, wonders, the odd disappointment and plenty of Radio Jo. Every Xmas I’ve hit in the past 17 years I’ve faced the same wonderful dilemma – what to get the missus this time? Should the gift reflect the love, the laughs or the lust? Just … Continue reading Crash, bang, whallop what a year!

We’re calling it queer funky tech, we’re calling it the best of 2010. Cos it is. End of. Here is our favourite soundwaves of the year. They’ve knocked off our feet and ensured a groove.
