Well that’s it for another year. Tonight (I think) is officially the last night of the Edinburgh Festival. It’s been a fucking blast I tell ye! Not least for the total randomness of what you see walking down the street that, as an Edinburgh native, just seems normal.

Washed Out is Ernest Greene from Columbia, South Carolina. Really lo-fi, end-of-summer goodness that I’ve been liking lately. I hear he has an album out soon too.

This is the last post I’ll be doing now for a couple of weeks while I get my final MSc project handed in. I’ve been really busy as of late so I’ve accrued quite the collection of decent tunes. So without further ado…

A mate sent me the link to this song last week. REALLY great remix. Blitz!Blitz!Blitz!Blitz!Blitz!Blitz!Blitz!Blitz!

Did I get this from Pigeons & Planes? I can’t remember. Either way, this is the kind of hip-hop that gets my head bopping.

If you haven’t seen Miles Fisher by now then WTFF (thats fucking fuck) have you been?! He not only pulled off a fucker of a Tom Cruise impression, but then went and topped it with this hilarious Christian Bale/Talking Heads tribute. Can you tell I love a good impressionist? Aaanyway, the good looking fucker that he is also sings and writes music. The song I’ve posted is actually great and I got a shock. Reminds me of Brendan Benson‘s solo work actually – which is a very very good thing. I hope he gets the recognition he deserves – apparently he’s gonna be appearing in the new season of Mad Men. Let’s see if he tops Don Draper in the cool stakes.

Don’t like Noah & The Whale. At all. But I like this Twelves remix. They’ve cut the funk up and sprinkled their disco-jizz all over this bitch!

Another Simian Mobile Disco track has hit the WWW and the verdict is good. Just the right amount of Ditto. Too much and what have you got? Dot Cotton rottenness.

This is the oldest (and last, you’ll be glad to hear) track on this post. Teenage Bad Girl were introduced to me through the medium of a facebook status. It went something like “rediscovered the Teenage Bad Girl album. BEEF JUNKY“, whatever that means! Anyway, cheers Mikey!

So I watched the cool new trailer for the new Wes Anderson-directed Fantastic Mr. Fox film and what stuck out for me most (other than the mental stop motion animation) was the songs attached to it. Don’t think anybody’s really mentioned them so far so here you go.

Listen: The Bobby Fuller Four – Let Her Dance
Listen: Clarence Carter – Looking For A Fox

p.s. I also found out that one of my favourite Clash songs wasn’t even written by them! I. Was. Gobsmacked.

I’ve fallen in love. I won’t lie to you. Opened my inbox the other day. There sits Javelin promo. It’s been 3 days now. I’ve had it basically on repeat for that entire time. If you don’t believe me, check my effing Last.fm page!!!

Someone (I think I know who) took this photo of a one-toothed maniac girl I know. I really like it.

I’m really busy at the moment (hence the lackage de postage), but when a remix just makes you hit the deck you NEED to tell someone what just happened. I’m serious. I went foetal there for a second.
