A Little Halloween Playlist

A few tunes to scare the shit out of you

Released Today & Yesteryear

Today *The Charlatans - Talking In Tones ( We are sooo looking forward to the album )

Yesteryear 2005 - The Rakes - Capture Release

Had The Rakes on shuffle for most of the day today

Best Of September ?

Death From Above - The Physical World  -  

We don't do massive reviews n' shit

Ten years ago we were spinning the odd tune from their first album ... this their latest probably suits 'best of September'. No easy task, considering Aphex and the multitude of re-releases that have been out lately ( Black Twang for one ), which are also worth checking out if you haven't done so. 

Anyway, unless you've been living on the moon for the last 8 weeks, you'l have given this a listen anyway by now.  Full album is down there @ the Spotify link.

Spotify

Spotify has always bugged me ... However theres nothing worse than listening to a playlist on your phone and suddenly the music stops because you are not allowed to listen to it on a 'mobile device' .... so in good old 'keeping up with the Jones's fashion' ... we'l be putting tunes in playlists for you on Spotify whenever possible. As well as youtube etc.

(give us a follow ... not even sure that's what ye meant to do but at least we'l know you ain't far away) 

Expect quite a few random playlists erm .... going off, when I've had too many beers. 

Mucho Love xxx

Don't Touch That Dial

32 Tunes from the radio playlists at the mo & all in one place ... so you don't have to.

& one that isn't. 

I'm hopefully going to be popping onto the radio this Sunday night to spin a few tunes if your doing nothing tune in ... If you've got The Radio Times I don't reckon it's in there.

One That Isn't 

Spotify Playlist # 1 here

unZined - The Juveniles

For my second outing to the local music scene, I looked towards band currently gigging around the north west and looking to record some songs at a studio later this month. The Juveniles, Mike Paul Davies on Guitar and Vocals, Liam Devall playing Lead Guitar, Laurel Lau on the Keyboard, Marc Allan Gibbs playing Bass and Fab on Drums produce great music and are well worth looking into more.

From closer inspection of their social sites, their music seems well produced, melodic and full of interesting, well written lyrics. Their sound is hard to describe, as it is so unique, but at a push I can hear some influence from Stone Roses with their songs psychedelic sound, great guitar riffs and steady tempo and Joy Division with their synth and well versed lyrics. Very enjoyable to listen to overall. Links to their music can be found at the bottom of this blog.   

Liam and Mike took the time recently to answer an interview I posted to them to find out more about the band. Check the interview after the jump:

The Business & Four From The Shelves

"The geezer was so hard even his nightmares were scared of him"

Heard OMD last night as part of 'The Business' soundtrack .. Half decent dated dealer flick if you ain't seen it ( wouldn't go out of your way to tho ) ... feat. Danny Dyer, It passed the time anyhow. Soundtrack could've been much better tbh. 

& 4 plucked from The shelves at random

In No Order Whatsoever

7 in no order whatsoever and may never play them

Free is a magic number and free others

One, Two, Three, Three, Three

The Kids Love - Marmozets

...... & apparently they're dead dead good like ... link for you to add their debut album to your spotify account on their website.  < HERE >

Ive never been a big fan of Spotify but I'm on it somewhere under 'crilly' if you're ever about ... wouldn't expect much from me tho, might maybe share a playlist or 2 one day ?

Not even heard this yet ner mind the album, this is what Im going to listen to this afternoon anyway. I like Weird & I like Wonderful but will I like the weird and wonderful marmozets ?
