What Choons Yi Listening To?

Mogwai are great

Yes they are. Any of you Mogwai fans watch The Returned? New series started on Friday on More4.

Glad you liked the PSB track. The album The Race For Space is really rather good. It's a concept album (but in a good way!) covering the main events of the space race between the USA and the USSR. I particularly like The Other Side, which samples the dialogue between mission control and the crew of Apollo 8 as they briefly lose contact while the craft passes behind the back side of the moon. It's strangely tense and ultimately uplifting. Looking back on that era I think there's something very heroic about the men and women who were prepared to be hurled into low-earth orbit in a tin can.

Like that Magnificents track btw. Echoes of Kraftwerk and the samples from the PSB stuff.

Here's something else you might like in an electronica / ambient techno stylee:

Been spinning an early 60's to mid 60's LP from the O'Jays and this track is such a standout...

I've been giving "Different Class" by Pulp a spin.

The album was released 20 years ago today (30/10/1995) and still sounds great. On a personal note, this was an important album for me as it was one of the first I really obsessed about as teenager and I found Jarvis Cocker's tales of working class weirdos incredibly relatable. It's definitely the reason I started learning to play instruments, trying to write songs and ended up pissing about in bands well into my 20's.

For me it now stands tall as the best album of the Britpop era bar none. They've been incredible live each time I've seen them too.

Take it away Jarvis and co...

A wee shout for a friends band, I think Dan ( the singer) is really very talented with a lovely tone.

Chris Difford & Glenn Tilbrook - One of the most talented writing duos to come out of the UK in that past 35 years.

Vive La France

French vocals will have to do for my selection



:smilie_flagge7: :smilie_flagge7: :smilie_flagge7:

- - - Updated - - -

And we'll have this utter feckin house classic while we're at it; happier, more innocent days




In fact we'll have this completely different and equally epic techno version also

Thought i`d add this as well. Wonderful. Vive Le France.

Adele, on the telly, she is like Dusty Springfield, a white lady with the voice a black soul singer.
