Serfing the net…
Coupla links found on BoingBoing while sickabed today…
I blame those three sneezing kids in the row in front of us between Hong Kong and Auckland – coupled with the contrast between the 33 degrees in HK (and the 28 degrees in Paris 13 hours earlier) and…

...and now for some things completely different:

Wellington Gypsy Swing maestros, Black Spider Stomp, have released a damn fine album of Gypsy waltzes – available through Bandcamp

...or if your tastes run to the other end of the musical spectrum, Meth Drinker's kiwi take on Doom Sludge has been well…

Since there’s not much action at the moment in this thread, and I am contemplating sleep before waking to run the subs at my daughters football tomorrow morning, I am going to post a Grime diss track.

In summary this guy called Chipmunk who was in the grime scene left…

I’m really enjoying the new Beck song – he’s gone pop and it’s gone well. It’s frivolous, but a little bit wonderful.

That's pretty frisky all right.

This is cool: Flying Out has a basement underneath the shop in Pitt Street and they have a string of great shows (most of them koha entry) through July.

Jamie xx is fantastic – it’s great to hear him pump it up a bit when the last xx album was so restrained. He’s got something special, for sure.

good to see Bic has been able to hand Kody the production duties – I heard his rough mix of her last album and it kicked the arse of the eventual release.
I'd say that new track is more reflective of her/ their love of Ye Ye though, she's even…

A saturation of saturation? I'm glad that repetition is a key element of electronic music.

I love what Bic & Kody mean. They seem to float warmly above the surface of the earth, occasionally making contact. All the leaves are green, and the sky is blue...

Jamie xx proves himself rather talented recreating Loud Places live along with a choir – http://www.nbc.com/late-night-with-seth-meyers/video/jamie-xx-performance-loud-places/2874307

In other news, Disclosure have decided that their new album is also a film. I’d watch it.

In other other news, looks like Disclosure is producing a track or two on the forthcoming Lorde album. I like that.

Gosh, what a saturation of electronically-saturated goodness.

In other news, Disclosure have decided that their new album is also a film. I'd watch it.
