I like to keep up-to-date with new music releases/news/current goings on, so instead of trawling through every. single. fucking. website. I employ an RSS Reader – basically a program that updates you when you’re favourite blog has a new post. I used to use FeedDemon but it fucked up and wouldn’t display images so I now use Google Reader and fuck me its awesome. Even better, apparently I already have 26 subscribers on Google Reader! Yeaaah Boyeeee!!! The moral of the story is – get Google Reader. NOW!

OK enough of my pish. I heard The Proxy remix on James Mountain’s Escape Plan and cheekily ripped it. Saw the Larry Tee and Alexander Technique remix over at Stoney Roads. I ♥ Ubbs like a blogfather. Both of these remixes are top notch, and as much as I would give a kidney to see The Proxy in the live environment, I’d say the Blogula remix just pips it.

Some amaaaazing dubstep is coming from 22-year-old South Londoner Peter O’Grady a.k.a. Joy Orbison. Great name. One to watch.

Finally getting round to mentioning this absolutely STUNNING remix by The xx. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – Florence And The Machine is/are(?) overhyped to the max. I won’t even link to the fucker. The xx, however, have released one of my favourite albums this year. They have a song called ‘Basic Space‘ and I’d say it’s a good description of their sound more than anything else. Single guitar/bass notes, basic drumbeats, sparse production. They have their own ‘sound’ after only 1 album it’s crazy. Goes totally against the grain of what kind of music has been coming out in recent years. Brilliant.
