Mercury Rev + Porcelain Raft

‘Deserter Songs’ out now on V2

‘Strange Weekend’ out now on Secretly Canadian (Shop)

Stan says: #Monday. Is today the most depressing day of the year or was that last week? The reports seem to be conflicting as far as we can tell. One thing we do know is that ‘Opus 40’ continues to generate a lump in the throat for us even after an uncountable number of listens and today it seems especially perfect – regardless of occasion.  Decided to throw in a bit of Charlie Chaplin (as soundtracked by Porcelain Raft) for good measure.

Omma Cobba – Wasted On A Bench

January 20, 2012 § Leave a comment

Stan says: #Friday. Wasted on a beach? Possibly. Wasted on a bench? Not so sure. Unless it’s some sort of super deluxe cushioned three seater affair located somewhere in the tropics with a gentle warm breeze and an unlimited supply of umbongo to hand. This is still good though. (Bandcamp)

Perfume Genius – All Waters

Stan says: #Wednesday. Nothing like a bit of heavy synth padding to smooth out those mid week glitches.

Minor Sounds – The Humming

Stan says: #Monday. Stumbled across this on the Fat Cat demo player last week. Slight but beautiful and free to download.

The Roots – Make My

January 13, 2012 § Leave a comment

Taken from the album ‘Undun’
Out now on Mercury (iTunes)

Stan says: #Friday. Still one of our favourite cuts from the last few months and still a free download available from RCRDLBL (here). Happy weekending.

Mint Julep – Days Gone By (Helios Remix)

January 11, 2012 § Leave a comment

Original version taken from the album ‘Save your Season’
Out now on Village Green

Stan says: #Wednesday. We’re hoping that Helios cut Mint Julep a good deal when it came to reworking this track. We still think it’s better than the original though, so either way … he should think about hiring himself for remix work more often.

Sandro Perri – Changes

January 9, 2012 § Leave a comment

Taken from the album ‘Impossible Spaces’
Out now on Constellation (Shop)

Stan says: #Monday. A track that somehow passed us by in 2011 but may be even more fitting for consumption at the outset of a brave new year (or that’s what we are telling ourselves). Thanks to TC for the belated heads up. We will not let this happen again in 2012. Honest.

Band Of Skulls – Bruises

January 6, 2012 § Leave a comment

Taken from the album ‘Sweet Sour’
Released on Vagrant/Electric Blues/PIAS 20/2/2012

Stan says: #Friday. Is it strange that we are almost continually surprised by the fact that Band Of Skulls are from Southampton? Either way ‘Bruises’ is an ideal cobweb unsettler and our favourite Band Of Skulls tune so far by an urban mile.
