a.k.a. Cockenzie Power Station if this picture is to be believed.

I’m actually feeling really rough today; was out last night for the opening night of the festival and I got very merry. Took the Holga too – so hopefully after I get the photos processed they’ll be good enough for the blog. Lots of famous comedians were spotted – Jack Whitehall, Jim Jeffries, Noel Fielding and…Caroline Rhea a.k.a. Aunt Hilda from Sabrina The Teenage Witch who we all proceeded to call Aunt Zelda until she corrected us hahahaha. Watch this space for that photo.

Been meaning to post about Big Boi for a while because the more I hear Shutterbug the more I think it’s a fecking groundbreaking sound! He also pops up on Janelle Monáe‘s sassy ‘Tightrope’. Grum‘s album has also been getting a lot of plays on my iPod recently and I’ve attached the splendidly-soporific standout ‘Want U’ so check it oot! I’ve sandwhiched these 3 gems with 2 tracks I heard on TV (well…I say TV…I really mean what I’ve torrented) one of which was the M.I.A. track ‘Space’ which was featured at the end of the latest Entourage right when Vince jumps out the plane; the second of which (is actually the first track here) is the best song I’ve heard used on a TV show and was featured on True Blood when Bill goes to the strip club and Massive Attack‘s ‘Paradise Circus’ is playing while he’s watching a Miley Cyrus-look-a-like work the pole. The hand-claps are key. Absolute prize of a track.

p.s. I took this photo of my brother playing his first gig (on my Holga of course!)

[UPDATE] I’ve just been informed the Massive Attack song is also the theme tune for Luther.

“I thought my life would get easier,
instead its getting harder, instead it’s getting harder

I thought my life would get easier,
instead it’s darker, instead it’s getting colder…
Without you”

What Kind Of Breeze Do You Blow? = “Idiosyncratic electronic jungle-disco re-orchestration, a robotic re-interpretation of a mirage.”

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