Plastikman Arkives 1993-2010

Bloody expensive boxset, but worth every penny so far - he is a true musical hero of mine and this set gives many insights into how he works etc. Hearing some of the recording sessions for Spastik are fascinating - seeing how much he then chopped things down from his original session - no wonder he says his fingers are covered in scalpel scars!

The book in the box set is fascinating, especially about the impact of being banned from the US had on his music and mental state etc.

Great stuff!

I've been really getting into Small Town Eyes by Justin Sandercoe (of justin guitar website). Some great tracks including this . . .

New Laura Marling album. Bit of a curate's egg. I mostly like it but there's at least one song I've really taken against - Salinas.

Of her three albums so far, it's probably her third best.

Oh well.

Edgar Broughton Band - Sing Brother Sing

Mainly because I had "Aphrodite" running through my head when I woke up this morning and it reminded me me I hadn't heard the album for ages.

Miming to Cocteaus; more enjoyable than the official videos:

All sorts of stuff - decided to live dangerously and put the iPod into 'shuffle' mode.

Makes for some interesting juxtapositions: the last four tracks I've had have been by The Beatles, Brian Eno, Slayer and Talk Talk, respectively. The seque from "Music for Airports" into "Angel Of Death" was quite interesting

EDIT: now we have Booker T. & the MG's with the awesome 'Green Onions' ...

Bush

Reminded of them from the US station I listen to during the day playing their new single "The Sound of Winter", so plunging, head long, through their back catalogue.

Currently listening to "Glycerine" then going to listen to their remix album "Deconstructed"

It's the late '90's all over again

Now listening to my Last.FM station, started with Bloc Party, then the Foo Fighters and now it's playing "Folding Stars" by Biffy Clyro.

Pure Class!

Now it's on Audioslave - "One and the Same"

I've got it - but not got into it yet. Struggling to find a track that hooks me in.

Nah, you're just showing off that you can do fancy accents and diphthongs and stuff.

I was listening to ~~wank music~~ classic rock gods Pink Floyd on the iPod on tonight's pseudo commute. I was shocked and appalled to discover I don't have Dark Side of the Moon on there.

That will have to be rectified.

You think time flies, I was also listening to Nirvana today, Rainbow Chaser, 7" single released in 1968 by the original British Nirvana not those transaltantic youngsters.

Tri Yann, inspired in part by the dulcimer in the Korg Kaossilator thread.
