Heard this new Four Tet gem on Gilles Peterson hidden right at the end of his show.

Listen ♫: Bob Holroyd – African Drug (Four Tet Remix) ←♥♥♥♥

New single from Wolf Parade is also pretty great. This is the B-side i think.

Listen ♫: Wolf Parade – Agents Of Love ←♥♥♥

Finally, a (possible) taster of what’s to come from Iron & Wine‘s new album – unexpectedly electronic but all the better for it.

So we’re just entering the last week of the Edinburgh Festival and I’ve had a delightful time – whether it’s soaking up sunbeams in the Spiegel Garden (see my pic below) or seeing hilarious comedy acts (Seann Walsh, Obama Mia!, Eleanor the Tour Whore) at various venues including the now-infamous Udderbelly Pasture (a massive upside-down purple cow). I’m also writing up my 1st-year PhD report and it’s hellish – I’m off to work on it now actually – but I’ll leave you with these thrillingly effortless tracks by Andras Fox & Sui Zhen, Pitchfork-featured Tropics, Gilles Peterson-featured Ogris Debris and George Fitzgerald. Go outside.
