louisiana - if the mixtape is the one I'm thinking of, you should listen to the herbaliser one from the series (ninja tune?)


for mixtape podcast types, I'm liking a 'Cover me Badd' mixtape from stone's throw records. 45 minutes of some quality / hilarious cover versions.

I read all the hyperbolic reviews of LCD and bought the album, and really had to wonder why the hype.

It was just a self-indulgent, substandard Daft Punk as far as I could work out.

If anyone wants a free copy I'm happy to give it away at the next meet as it's just gathering dust.


I'm listening to Bill Callahan's (smog) new one at the mo. Strangely upbeat for him, but lovely stuff nonetheless.


I noticed last night that Dead Man's Shoes kicks off with a smog track that fitted absolutely perfectly.

Agree with you there Mockney. They are so overrated. I really liked the first LCD Soundsystem album, but even that was a bit patchy but the second one starts off OK even though it totally rips off Krafwerk and Bowie, especially on the first track. I only like about three or four tracks on the new one after that it really is insipid, uninspired, ordinary and dare I it say rather boring.

Actually in all fairness capt' I'm forever badgering people to listen to it and I'm going to have to admit to myself one day that about 2 in every three give me a 'yes piers, whatever' look. Aah well, not to everyone's taste I guess.


Enjoying this andrew bird so far, nithing stand out as yet.


Metacritic clearly like it too.

Amazingly I went in to Fopp and managed NOT to spend money. However the Camden branch is giving away the double Camden Crawl CD for free, so if you're nearby I'd grab it. 38 tracks of future stars for nowt.


Mind you I'm unconvinced of Akala's claim that..

"I'm Shakespeare reincarnated, except I spit flows and strip hos naked"


Hmm, worthy of the bard himself, I'm sure.

I'm not sure where it comes from, but it seems to like parking across the street from my house and playing that tune over and over again.


I liked it a lot better when I lived on the corner of Fellbrigg and Shawbury Road. Then it would just sound as if it were passing in the distance, reminding me of the heady days of school summer holidays.


*sigh*

    • This is a remarkable interpretation of history. Wikipedia (with more footnotes and citations than you could shake a shitty stick at sez: The austerity programme was initiated in 2010 by the Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government. In his June 2010 budget speech, Osborne identified two goals. The first was that the structural current budget deficit would be eliminated to "achieve [a] cyclically-adjusted current balance by the end of the rolling, five-year forecast period". The second was that national debt as a percentage of GDP would fall. The government intended to achieve both of its goals through substantial reductions in public expenditure.[21] This was to be achieved by a combination of public spending cuts and tax increases amounting to £110 billion.[26] Between 2010 and 2013, the Coalition government said that it had reduced public spending by £14.3 billion compared with 2009–10.[27] Growth remained low, while unemployment rose. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_government_austerity_programme From memory, last time around they were against the LTNs and competing with the Tories to pick up backlash votes - both failed. They had no counterproposals or ideas about how to manage congestion or pollution. This time around they're simply silent on the matter: https://www.southwark-libdems.org.uk/your-local-lib-dem-team/goosegreen Also, as we have seen from Mr Barber's comments on the new development on the old Jewsons yard, "leading campaigns to protect the character of East Dulwich and Goose Green" is code for "blocking new housing".
    • @Insuflo NO, please no, please don't encourage him to post more often! 😒
    • Revealing of what, exactly? I resurrected this thread, after a year, to highlight the foolishness of the OP’s op. And how posturing would be sagacity is quickly undermined by events, dear boy, events. The thread is about Mandelson. I knew he was a wrong ‘un all along, we all did; the Epstein shit just proves it. In reality, Kinnock, Blair, Brown, Starmer et all knew as well but accepted it, because they found him useful. As did a large proportion of the 2024 intake of Labour MPs who were personally vetted and approved by Mandelson.
