Tricky Meets South Rakkas Crew - C'mon Baby (single)
Still no progress on the blog layout but this one seems ok for now. The Rougher Sounds MySpace is looking nice though.

Touareg chic blows Brighton apart
Check out my latest review on DMG.
Tinariwen live @ Concorde2, Brighton (28/10/2009)
They were such amazing live performers in a beautifully intimate space that really did them justice! Check out the review for more details.
You might have noticed that the blog looks a little different to usual. This is because I'm hating the blogger templates but don't have the knowledge to create a better one myself. So whilst I get my design mates on the case I've swapped it about for a bit of variety. Hope you all approve.
Let me kn0w what you think of the review and keep warm whilst the cold comes in.

Fix up look sharp!
Spent way too much money on Dizzee Rascal's back catalogue, a Roll Deep album and Anti-pop Consortium's new album last week which meant that I had no money for food. Oops! Music feeds me more than food but try telling my tummy that...
Interviewed the charming Aussies from teenagersintokyo last Wednesday and now it's up on DMG so check it out now!

Finally I bring you what I promised!
The new DMG reviews are now up for your viewing pleasures.
Lethal Bizzle - Going Out Tonight (single)
Q-Tip - Kamaal The Abstract (album)
Should be going to see Tinariwen soon and the BBC Electric Proms after-party so will let you know when those live reviews are on their way. I also have an interview with Teenagersintokyo to get ready for this Wednesday.
I hope they turn out to be a nice bunch and in the meantime I can work on my laptop's keyboard not totally falling to pieces. I'm currently missing the number zero and the letter 'i'. Just thnk of the words I might be denying myself already!

The return of Skin!
You know it's a good day when Skunk Anansie are back in business. Check out my review of their new single on DMG.
Skunk Anansie - Because Of You (single)
That takes me back to the mid to late 90s in a far better way than that Trail song did. Speaking of which...I have returned to an old addiction lately, yes ladies and gents I speak of that old and forbidden opiate, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (specifically Series 3 & 4). Watching the love between Willow and Oz unfold all over again has been magical but Angel's heavy breathing tendencies are starting to bug me. Can vampires be asthmatic? Anyway, I digress. Despite my mild Buffy obsession, I've just managed to submit a review of Q-Tip's new album and Lethal Bizzle's new single so expect them to be up for your viewing pleasure in a few days.
I've also been busy buying a bit of music over the last few days so you'll be hearing lots about Lowkey and Immortal Technique's collaboration and the new Jay-Z album The Blueprint 3. I'm sure you can't wait!
As usual please leave and questions or comments about the review and let me know what you think.

Misspent youth
Another busy week, another review for your perusal. As promised, my latest effort is up now on DMG.
Trail - Prism (single)
See if Trail take you back to the bad old days of hormonal rampage, cheap booze and horrendous clothing...last Tuesday in my case then.
Let me know what you think (of the review, not last Tuesday)
Cheers!

Red Haired Country Vixens will seduce you every time...
My review of Piney Gir's new album is up on DMG now!
Piney Gir - The Yearling (album)
She's an odd little lady (so obviously I relate to her a great deal!).
If you're into bizarrely sugary tenderness I suggest you check out the review and then the album itself.
My review of Trail's new single 'Prism' should be up soon and I'm just starting to work on reviews of Q Tip's new album and singles by Skunk Anansie and Lethal Bizzle so stay tuned for that. It's going to be a very busy week!
As usual, let me know what you think of the Piney Gir review and enjoy conkers and hot water bottles in the meantime (oh the joys of autumn).
