So the Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti album has leaked and it sounds like music post-1979 didn't happen. If you gave this album and said to me this album is an 'old classic' I wouldn't even bat an eyelid. 'Bright Lit Blue Skies' sounds like LOVE circa '67 while 'Can't Hear My Eyes' is vintage Fleetwood Mac (think Rumours-era) - all it needs is a crazy Stevie Nicks wail. I'm predicting this one won't leave my iPod for a while - it has S U M M E R [...]

Fingers crossed, if all goes to plan tomorrow I should have a new flat waiting for me to move into (in a month or so). I will say one thing, mash-ups aren't usually my thing but the Hood Internet have done it again with this blinding melding of Caribou with Slug & Murs .

What's that? Two outstanding mixtapes in 1 week, you say? Well it just happened thanks to Rubix and his Vruchtvlees Couture Mixtape No. 7 with its mix of Disco, Gypsy, Midget, Fidget and Dubstep. It's the 'Gypsy' that Rubix does better than so many others - kind of a signature of his. Tracklist in the comments.

I carelessly threw my iPod in with the rest of the washing yesterday and it has drowned a horrible soapy/spinny death. Think I'll have to get a new one as the 1-year warranty doesn't cover being a TOTAL DOUCHE !! Ah well, in other news Siriusmo recorded a Radio Show but we can just call it a mixtape (33 tracks in 49mins!). It's the best mix I've heard since Congorock 's ' More Fire Tour ' mix. Tracklist is in the comments section. Siriusmo [...]

Saw Kick-Ass yesterday and it blew me away. Highly recommended. There's a scene is it where Hit-Girl blasts her way down a hallway full of guys with bazookas, and then Joan Jett booms in amidst the utter chaos. Genius.

This is Hostage . He's a fan of the sausage...ahahha I totally meant the food. Saw him blitz Cabaret Voltaire on Friday and, being an absolute gentleman, he's only gone and emailed me 3 of his newest tracks (all in glorious 3 2 0 k b p s !!). He must've saw me in the crowd - I was wearing the " Hi Hostage, Please Email Me 3 Bangers, KTHXBAI " t-shirt... and what do you know, it worked. [...]
