Lazy day

 

Always appreciate those times where you end up sitting on your backside doing sweet fuck'all; skipping through music channels to find something worth listening to. Avoiding Cliff Richard and Dolly Parton on Magic I came across  Born Ruffians latest video of 'What to say', not just an amazing track, but also epic video directed by Jared Raab. Born Ruffians released their fourth album 'Say It' on Warp Records on 31st of May last month. A real fresh sound from a band I'd totally forgotten about since their past classic 'Hummingbird'. 

Born Ruffians - Say it

Couldn't argue that Warp haven't released some unheard of talent and The Hundred in the Hands are a prime psychedelic example with their ep 'This Desert' including their latest release of 'Tom Tom'. With her angelic' sounding voice over some intense acidic toms there is more than enough to pull you into a state of tranquility.

 

Réactualiser

Not had a lot of time on our hands recently due to exams and work, and we've noticed there's been a distinct lack of music posted of late; so to make up for a few barren weeks, here are a few tracks that we like at the moment...

First up is a club classic remixed by tribal pioneer Mowgli. The original 'It Just Won't Do' was big back in 2002, and we all remember the video; Mowgli just made it that bit better.

Just Won't Do (Mowgli remix) - APDW vs Tim Deluxe ft. Sam Obernik

Been meaning to post something about xxxy for a while now, but haven't got round it. xxxy released a split EP (along with Ike Release) earlier this month on his label Infrasonics. Contrasting Ike Release's austere and serious sound, xxxy moves in a slightly different, more playful direction with 'Know You', whilst maintaining a similar enough sound to cohere with the rest of the tracks on the EP. Sort of beat you just can't help but nod to. 

Know You - xxxy

This ain't half bad either:

  Xxxy - Fela!! by xxxy

  

James Blake's latest release 'CMYK' was one we were anticipating ever since we wrapped our ears around 'The Bells Sketch EP' back in February. Blake returns with an atypically upbeat track, yet with the characteristically unpredictable melody we now come to expect from him. No download as of yet, so you'll have to make do with this:

Barry Scarlet

If you don't know about Bigger Than Barry, you need to get down to The Custard Factory tonight!

All aboard the Roller Express

Roller Express (Toddla T x Redlight) has shot out of nowhere, looking to tear shit to pieces! BIG interview with T willy himself, and a glimpse of their remix of Wiley's track 'Electric Boogaloo'

Exile on Main St.

Understandably one of the most inspirational bands of all time, The Rolling Stones have brought forth their modern re-mastered version of 'Exile on Main St.' (originally introduced in 1972). The album, a result of four solid years of production, has revolutionised and inspired many artists of our current generation, including: Kings of Leon, The Strokes and The Libertines. Jagger and Richards were said to be in fully flared experimental rhythm whilst in the production of the album following their renown known album 'Sticky Fingers'. Also for those who aren't so keen, we've got a Stones' remix from the likes of Hot Chip.
