I had the new Vampire Weekend, The XX, the last Ulrich Schnauss and the new Four Tet arrive today.

Nice to have a splurge on music now and then. Got another three or four still on the way from Amazon.

Nocando - "Jimmy the Lock". Fab.
edIT - "Certified Air Raid Material" (from 2007 but just discovered it on iTunes)

Four Tet's Essential Mix was good last week- worth catching on the iPlayer.

Miles Davis "Bitches Brew". Can not get to grips with it, reckon it will take some perseverance.

It happens, can't always expect to be blown away by music on initial acquaintance. ๐Ÿ˜

Don't try too hard.

Jimmy - Four Tet is very good. More, erm, rounded than Rounds - bit more dancey too, but not in an obvious way. Excellent production.

Pop Will Eat Itself - Best of

Now you're talking! Give me big mac, fries to go...

On my long-and-growing list for first pay packet.

GLWT ๐Ÿ˜€ For me, the list has forever grown faster than the frequency or volume of the pay packets, and so I have had many times to discard any idea of lists and get what I can at the time.

I'm still old school and buy on CD, but many of them are priced so competitively that I'm more than happy to own the physical item AND load it into iTunes.

+1 for the Cure's Greatest Hits! Bought it ages ago, but love the acoustic side - especially Lullaby. Just got Nick Drake's albums in the post from Amazon, never heard his stuff before the culture show the other night and kinda loving it....
