And so concludes The Great Escape Festival , which always turns into the biggest weekend of our calendar year. It's been four days since the event finished, yet our hangovers have barely receded. On one of the nights we finally reached our bed at 8am! A marathon indeed. Below is our review of a handful of experiences and exploits, but in truth it's pretty impossible to extol the real experience in words. Sure we had an amazing time, with lots of live music and venue hopping, but as a Brighton resident every other week of the year, we noticed [...]
by Stephanie Stevens-Wade Photos by Joshua Lawrence For a majority of music lovers the start of summer is the start of festival season: overpriced tickets, boxes of wine, headache-inducing lights shows and portaloos that burn your nostrils. Whilst you're packed like a sardine in the crowd dodging the flying cup of 'cider' spinning above, a day festival, set in a secret serene Kentish woodland sounds like heaven. Curated by The Laurel Collective , [...]
Johnny Langer & Peter Duffy aka Man Like Me are back with a brand new single, video and flurry of remixes and I've enjoyed all of them! Cue the PR... Man Like Me are the Camden Town duo Johnny Langer and Peter Duffy. Sharing a penchant for North London boozers and old skool garage, the 'carnivalesque kings' (Dazed Digital) have dominated discerning dancefloors from Dalston to LA over the past two years, proving again and again why they're the 'best damn live act in the UK' (Loud & Quiet). The release of "Peculiar" on October 3rd [...]
HIYA // Peter and Johnny Man Like Me are at it again. What we once assumed to be yet another bit of quirky pyrite in the ever flashing pan of London's music scene, Man Like Me have once more delivered an utterly infectious and distinctly MLM tune in 'Peculiar'. We've been waiting since this time last year for Camden Town codgers Johnny Langer and Peter Duffy to step out in their trademark Reebok classics with a follow up to 2010's excellent 'Lovestruck' (which was out almost [...]

A dica desse post é do Hick Duarte lá do Fiesta Intruders que fez uma apresentação bacana desse duo no Move That Jukebox . Formado por Johnny Langer e Peter Duffy , o Man Like Me surgiu de uma amizade de infância em Londres e das inspirações nas músicas do Tricky . Foram para Los Angeles, berço de grandes artistas, para viver as experiências mais preciosas do mundo da música. O resultado disso é o que você verá abaixo. [...]
Here's this week's video round-up: Male Bonding - Tame The Sun (Live) To (lazily) quote from SEXBEAT : "Male Bonding's follow up to their debut LP is out on 29 August via Sub Pop . To celebrate, they will be releasing a video each of the remaining days taken from their recent album playback show at the Buffalo Bar, filmed by Conan Roberts. The first installment is Tame The Sun." [There is a video that cannot be displayed in this feed. Visit the blog entry to see the [...]
Man Like Me have named their new single "Peculiar". So what exactly is peculiar about it? Well, pretty much everything. Imagine if you were walking down a North London street, you spy a pair of sharp-suited, Reebok Classic wearing, young chaps reminiscing about their school days and how times have changed since then - but, out of nowhere, you find yourself in the middle of a carnival scene. Trumpets, whistles, dancing, catering by Lidl, Elephant rides, performing monkeys and one of them has just walked through a fridge. All on a street near Camden Town! That's a [...]
Happy Valentines Day! Fist + chest = love power move.
Because if I had stayed any longer I may have just moved there. Now I have returned, with renewed vigor, committed to delivering bangers. 1) Raven (Laidback Luke Edit) -Proxy ***FUEGO*** Fitting to start with this guy because the table for Laidback Luke at Pacha has just gotten booked. I dropped this track at The Colony in Hollywood on Wednesday Night and that place literally exploded. 2) Flashback (Soulmate Extended Remix) -Calvin Harris [...]
Ah... las fiestas. Siempre llenas de gente interesante, aunque, a veces, no tanto, pero nunca falta al menos un suceso que te robe una carcajada o te haga escupir tu cerveza sobre la ropa de alguien con quien osabas quedar bien. No sé ustedes, pero al menos en mi caso, por alguna razón extraña me tocó ser del clan que siempre termina en la cocina neceando... Afortunadamente, no soy el único, desde tiempo atrás que este fenómeno ocurre en las fiestas alrededor del mundo, si no me creen pregúntenle a Jona Lewies , el autor original de "You'll Always [...]

Hiya London-towners Man Like Me are back with their thoroughly London style and sound on their latest track, 'Lovestruck', a totally hit worthy (like RADIO hit worthy) track, off their latest EP, Lovestruck . With help from design duo Jiggery Pokery , the trio get all cardboard cut-outy with a rather brilliant (and mathematically precise) set to werk themselves around. According to props and accessories designer Fred Butler (remember that telephone hat that Gags wore in 'Telephone'? That was Fred Butler), 'Lovestruck' [...]

Skanky Panky Vol 1 is due out sometime in April on Skanky Panky Records (William Breakspear, Six Am) so to celebrate the forthcoming release we have a host of tracks for you. From William Breakspears chopped up, high pitched wailing of a track, to the party vibes of Man Like Me remixed by the people of Skanky Panky the tunes here have the ingredients (wobbly bass, chopped sounds) with an emphasis on American style vocals and rap that shouldn't detract too much from the UK sounds achieved here! The tracks should give you the impetus to want more [...]
