I've got a few undergoing heavy rotation at the moment -
Osmosis - a sampler for the leaf label. Cost a fiver for 14 brilliant tracks by almost complete unknows. I like that.
Moving Shadow 99.1 and 99.2 - classic drum'n'bass mixes. Sounding damn good in the sun.
Cosmic Junglabandi by Suns if Arqa - a brilliant combination of Indian-esque/world music and more modern electronica. Really, really brilliant.
Roots Manuvah - Run Come Save Me. Brilliant rap/hip hop with a total Brit flavour and brilliant sense of humour. I mean, how else can a hip hop song contain references to "drowning ten pints of bitter" and "contending with cheese on toast"?! Also sounding damn fine in the sun.
Hey - it's now unofficially summer in London, and that means breaking out Yoshiesque by Deep Dish too.
And I know it's over 6 years old now, but I still can't get enough of Dead Cities by FSOL...
Haven't got any new music for ages, as I'm penniless at the moment. But then judging by most of the stuff on XFM at the moment, it's all indie/nu-metal by numbers. Sigh.
