  • The Sound of Belgium

    The Sound of Belgium

    Here’s a brilliant documentary on the music of Belgium, which might sound as flat, long and boring as those infamous roads, but those who love electronic music know better. From automatic playing organs with their 3kg cardboard programmes to New Beat and Rave, it runs the whole gamut from Boccaccio (a club that I wish…

  • Anthologised by Cherry Red

    Anthologised by Cherry Red

    Some songs are too good to be ‘blipverted‘ and this is one. Heard via the frankly odd confines of Dandelion Radio. As the host said, probably too pop for Dandelion, which is a great place to be, but it’s probably too different for 6Music or Radio 1 as well though. Which means although this should…

Would be nice to see if he increased that next week through sales 😉 Always preferred the Twitter version…

  • Return of Big Boi

    Return of Big Boi

    One of the many tracks we also didn’t play at CAP but wanted to was one of the few decent track in the charts (yes I checked, UK top 100 bitches – all shit apart from Kelis, this, Professor Green and the ever-present Gaga singles – and what’s with Guetta taking over the WHOLE of…
