Darwin Deez's album was on ...Glad you approve!<br /><br />Darwin Deez's album was on the Rough Trade best of the year list. I'm afraid I struggled with it a bit. There's pretty much only him, a guitar and a drum machine all the way through which makes it really samey. This track is great though I agree.Hoops Hooleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05619434657999228024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19530059.post-25085141210304351202011-01-17T16:33:06.790+00:002011-01-17T16:33:06.790+00:00Well, I'm kind of back.

The songs by Warpaint, David Byrne and Hexicon are particularly good, and so is Corrine Bailey Rae (suprisingly!). I am very pleased though that you have finally identified for me a song that I keep hearing on 6Music but never hear the name of - Darwin Deez. It's great!Cocktailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06091341579556869010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19530059.post-3150382215709578942011-01-13T22:22:32.283+00:002011-01-13T22:22:32.283+00:00Hello Cocktails.

(Does this qualify as "circulation"?).<br /><br />I confess that quite a few of these are albums I only became aware of through the Rough Trade list. As you say the Fannies definitely came up with the goods this year (maybe their best since Songs from Northern Britain??)<br /><br />I'd be interested to hear what you think of any you get a chance to hear. Assuming they're not among the three you already know, you might find the Folds/Hornby to your taste and the Corinne B/Rae is surprisingly good, in my humble etc etc...<br /><br />...Or if you've any recommendations of your own?<br /><br />Hope you have a happier 2011!Hoops Hooleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05619434657999228024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19530059.post-46093301586865797722011-01-12T21:53:00.500+00:002011-01-12T21:53:00.500+00:00Happy New Year Hoops (ok, bit late I know).
I am...Happy New Year Hoops (ok, bit late I know). <br /><br />I am embarrassed to say that I am so not in touch with current music that I am only familiar with around three of your top 20 - and you could probably guess which ones! But since your no.1 is something I've got in permanent position by the kitchen CD player I feel that this is vaguely acceptable. <br /><br />Now I'm back and settling into non-holiday mode I'll endeavour to have a listen to your Spotify playlist. I'm sure it will cheer me up.Cocktailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06091341579556869010noreply@blogger.com
