Squeeze just one more mince pie in before NYE.

Ok so maybe it's not a mince pie, but my review of Radioclit's new EP is now up on DMG and hopefully it'll be almost as satisfying (with guaranteed less calories).

Radioclit - Secousse All Stars (EP)


However you finish off the year, I hope it's a good one and I'll see you all again in 2010!

Strangeness can be a good thing...

So Christmas has come and gone for another year and I hope you're all enjoying your prezzies. My review of The Count & Sinden's new single is now up on DMG.

The Count & Sinden - Strange Things/Elephant 1234 (single)

That'll probably be my last review of 2009 unless my review of Radioclit's new EP gets published over the next few days. I can't wait to get stuck into some of the gems promised for 2010, including new albums from Massive Attack, Eels, Goldfrapp and the legendary Gil Scott Heron. Let me know what you think of the single and keep your eyes peeled for new material in the new year! Have a good one.

Cristmas Present idea...

Hope no one's got frostbite yet and you're all enjoying mulled wine and mince pies instead!
If you're still looking for a cheeky last minute present for someone, then you could do a lot worse than going onto iTunes and gifting them Foreign Beggars' album The United Colours of Beggattron. My review of their single 'Seven Figure Swagger' off the aforementioned album is now up on the DMG website so check it out for a sneak peek at what the rest of the album has in store.

Foreign Beggars - Seven Figure Swagger (single)

This has been a year of really amazing albums, from Mos Def to Seasick Steve via Tinariwen and countless others in between, there's no shortage of awesome stocking fillers out there for your loved ones so don't be stingy! If you're still looking for other ideas then have a look back over some of the reviews from the past year and see if anything takes your fancy either here or on the

Whatever you get up to over the rest of the festive season, have a very merry xmas and a happy new year!
