Dhafer Youseff ?

Nope - new one on me, but thanks for the tip!  Long been a fan of Anouar Brahem.  Who wouldn't be, with album titles (and content) like The Astounding Eyes of Rita?

Kompakt Total 1 through 12 on random play on the study system - 212 great tracks!

Got a stack of code to write tonight and this will go down a treat to help with it.

Itunes has decided I want all of "The Salsa Funck Experience" when I asked for Scott Walker. I haven't worked out the new iTunes yet ...
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

This afternoon is a Bad Religion marathon.   I'm hoping some of their energy will miraculously transfer over to me.

Just a few random tracks from Bad Religion, having learned they have a new CD coming out in January!

Since I pulled an all nighter last night to finish a report I need something lively  to keep me awake. So its:

The Supersuckers - The Evil Power of Rock and Roll

New Burial EP - a real cracker.

Aha, this is out now.  Thanks for the heads up.  I really like the Kindred / Street Halo recent EPs.

I'm mostly listening to Chromatics - Kill for Love, which I missed when it came out in April, but it is right up my street.

The Kill Bill soundtrack.

The film is OK I suppose, as it goes; the usual Tarantino splatterfest - but set against the soundtrack, it's not arf bad. Music is a powerful thing.

This time last year I think I would have heard of two of them lot, LG.  Now I've heard of more than half of 'em, and have seen 4 of them (all ones that I hadn't heard of before) performing live this year!
