There isn't a new fuck buttons album........is there?

No, it's Ben Power, one half of Fuck Buttons, doing his own thing under the name Blanck Mass. Similarly driving to Fuck Buttons' stuff, but on first listen less beats.

[Voley]

That's a nice cheery one for a sunny day like today, b!

I've got Sly & Robbie 'A Dub Experience' on right now.

 

[Part 2]

Blanck Mass...Blanck Mass, first listen, a bit lightweight maybe

Title Fight...The last thing you forget, heard this a few times, it's growing on me. Think I'll go see em.

It's got a rep for darkness, but I've always found it pretty funky. If he hadn't made that rope swing everyone would be dancing to it...

 

[Voley]

Heh. Yeah, the last two really get me grooving. 'Decades' is guaranteed to fill any dancefloor.

 

[Voley]

Dub Spencer & Trance Hill - Clashification Of Dub. Listened to this a fair bit lately - am currently getting some of their other (non-Clash) stuff to see if it compares favourably.

^ ARRGH you & NVP have given me a Wombats earworm

just played: Hot Chip - The Warning

 

[killer b]

Heh. Yeah, the last two really get me grooving. 'Decades' is guaranteed to fill any dancefloor.

A perfect slow number for the lovers at the end of the night.

recent listening:

Moby - 18

The Carpenters - classic airwaves
^ live in Japan in '72 - complete with corny 'oldies medley' including a version of Leader Of The Pack that verges from hilarious to heartbreaking & segues into Johnny Angel via the 2nd motorcycle death crash sound effect (pos more ott than on the original version).
Fuck, Karen had a gorgeous voice.

The Elms - The Big Surprise
^ Christian music disguised as retro indie & bought by mistake
real men cry and this makes them just like Jesus apparently, and Jesus was a real man because he didn't back down out of getting himself killed in front of other people
Probably the only album to reference Dylan's Slow Train Coming.

Notion Music presents rogue indie featuring The Datsuns
^ plus some other band's who (still) nobody's ever heard of.

The Bandits - And They Walked Away

Ocean Colour Scene - North Atlantic Drift
(& I still can't type their name without fucking up Oceon. )
eta: deliberate non-spellcheckery there.

is your cd listening regime some kind of penance rollinder? what could you possibly have done that deserves such a harsh punishment?
