Releases
JOKER – Tron E.P
April 10, 2010
Joker is pretty hyped after a host of releases over the last couple of years and some very high profile remixes. I’ve never got into him as much as the likes of Zomby, Rustie or Darkstar but ‘Tron’, his latest release on Kapsize, is just ridiculous. A slower, more considered track than his previous efforts, it’s an incredible slice of p-funk inspired instrumental hip-hop and perhaps his first tune that I really think lives up to the hype.

FANTASTIC MR FOX – Sketches E.P
February 23, 2010
Amazing new E.P from someone I’d only previously been aware of from his remixes, and someone who, apparently and oddly, was given his big break by Steve Lamacq.

TORO Y MOI – Causers Of This
February 19, 2010
I listen to lot’s of music that’s known as ‘chillwave’. It’s basically this kinda hazy, acid-soaked synthpop that really started to get noticed last summer. Think: Memory Tapes, Washed Out, Neon Indian, Universal Studios Florida etc.

MARINA vs LONELADY
February 17, 2010
So, Monday (22nd Feb) sees the release of perhaps the must hyped artist of the year so far – Marina And The Diamonds. You can see why she is getting so much attention- her name, her ‘quirky’ style, she is hot.
