As for the music, Charlie Darker sneaked his new chillwave-y track over to my inbox. I stumbled across this ultra lo-fi gem from Young Minds. And finally, RAC have put out their 2nd remix album on soundcloud. You should go listen to it…..I’ll wait…..

Not given it a proper listen through yet but I do like ‘Lotus Flower’ and the accompanying video. Also in my news, long-time friend of the blog Hostage sent over his new track and it kicks and bumps in all the right places…. then decides to slap you in the face with its huge clubby balls. Dope! Finally, just finished watching Spaced again and this Lemon Jelly song rounds off what is probably one of my favourite TV programs ever. DANCE COLIN! DANCE FOR ME!

Case in point is ‘Sweet Sweet Riddim’ a Prodigy-style rave-a-thon. Impossible not to do the laptop headbop while this is on! APPROVED!

Simple yet effective.

Optimus Prime = “Pulsating mechanical club-ready synth strutter for the cosmic dancefloors.”

Breakfast Of Champions have made the first Neon Indian remix that’s actually worth a damn. Their original stuff is similarly great.

Lastly, but by no means leastly, friend of the blog number two, LS Mitchell, has created a fantasticly professional wee 40-min mix that he sent this way. Seriously, this mix sounds like an ace night out at the Cabaret Voltaire for me! I’d be winding down to bed usually by now but this mix has me doing the feet-tap, head-bob skank!

I’d say it took about 10 seconds of ‘Back And Forth’, by Aussie young-guns Operator Please, for me to be smitten. How long did it take you? Head over to their website where you can listen to the album in full for free!
