APOLOGIES IF A VIDEO ISN’T AVAILABLE IN YOUR COUNTRY

1  Tijuana Panther – I Took Her Phone Away (38 )

We hadn’t come across these guys before, glad we have now. Have you noticed how conversation in songs is the thing these days.

2 The Irony Board: Bus Stop Bravado (46)

Watford (UK) outfit rather wonderful 60’s indie styled tune. Think High llamas, The Strands etc.

3   Mick St. Clair – Acid Bhangra  (113)

Acid & Bhangra – what more could you ask for !

4  Hammered Satin – Velvet Vortex  (130)

The best pastiche all year. New LA outfit drawing from  The Sweet, Marc & David. It’s 1973 all over again!

5  Belpaese – Eoeo  (171)

New Italian 12″ and we love it

6. MR TC & Lo Kindre – The Storm (188)

Another great 12″. This is from last year and pulls a bass line that sounds the like the sugarhill gang going early century electro and then the dub palettes are heaped on. It’s Jah Wobble gone to the other side…… Mad for this one

7  Sandoz – Digital Lifestorms (417)

One of the great joys of the last 18 months have been re-discovering and learning anew Richard H Kirk’s ( Cabaret Voltaire) catalogue as Sandoz.

8.  Debby Friday – Fatal (491)

MIA meets Massive Attack anyone?

9  Roxy Girls – Spanners For Hands (739)

Already mentioned above by our friend at the beach. If you haven’t listened already we’re not going to waste your time and try and persuade you to do so again.

10  Flame 1  – Shrine (842)

Burial & The Bug – Need we say more
  

PLANETARY (LOS ANGELES)

We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know.
