currently listening

1. Bibio - Ambivalence Avenue LP
2. Delorean - Ayrton Senna EP
3. The Antlers - Hospice LP
4. Yacht - See Mystery Lights LP
5. Dirty Projectors - Bitte Orca LP

Ah, not really. The above are all hip albums I've read about on the web in the last week or two. Out of a vague sense of duty, I downloaded 'em. But I can't really be bothered to listen to any of them. Here's what I'm really listening to.

1. Blur
2. Old mp3s of the Adam & Joe show.
3. The new Noah and the Whale LP
4. Music from John Hughes films
5. ...er. Radio 4?

I realise that this feature works better when I'm motivated to listen to music. Having a dry patch at the moment, clearly.

    Hmm, you're grumpy. It's your job to listen to all
    those albums now, and tell us what you think. Like, soon.

  3. Ellie. I am still grumpy today. But OK, I shall listen to those records and report back.

    Laura - exactly. What exactly more do I need than Damon and Graham, the soundtrack to Pretty In Pink and the Today programme?

  4. Hey Pete!

    No, I've not heard it yet - but I did see them at Field Day a few weeks ago; they were very impressive - made me think of a kind of cross between the Young Marble Giants and US r'nb. They were good. Will post a review of that at some point...

    They're doing an instore at Resident at 6pm tomorrow (Thurs 19th) I think...
