42/14 - You Don't Want To Get Out Of Bed

Fuck it. Fuck it Fuckit


Kent - Beskyddaren

Det är då själve fan att man aldrig ska växa ifrån den här biten.


The Fantasy - Summer Night In Harlem

I wanna dance to this at a party. On a summer night. In harlem.


The Decemberists - 16 Military Wives

Fifteen celebrity minds
Leading their fifteen sordid wretched checkered lives
Will they find the solution in time
Using their fifteen pristine moderate liberal minds?


Panda Bear - Mr Noah

Best new release for some time.



Mogwai - Death Rays

Send me death rays.

41/14 - Blow Steam In The Face Of The Beast

Palindromic week. A list that gives no quarter.


Rage Against The Machine - Wake Up

I should have this as my alarm clock. Soooo tired all the time.




Patti Smith - Revenge

This is how you use a guitar solo in service of a song and its message.


Duffy - Live And Let Die

When you've got a job to do
You gotta do it well
You gotta give the other fellow hell


Moloko - Pure Pleasure Seeker

It takes genius to base a whole six-and-a-half minute track on a brass-riff.


Kendrick Lamar - i





The second Run The Jewels is shaping up to be a match to the first. I.e. pretty goddamn awesome.




Oh and this is still, the best. It does not get worse by a little sprinkle of those classic tracks Spottieottiedopaliscious and Monster:

40/14 - Redefine Happiness

Here is a list from the pits of despair. Bad case of creative block is making me wake up with anxiety.


Blue Öyster Cult - Don't Fear The Reaper

Tried to hold out and make it last longer, but I've now watched the final episode of the second season of OITNB. Now starts the wait for next season. But what an amazing outro to the season this was. And what an amazing outro this has.



Caribou - Our Love


As if I wasn't already holding back tears...




Kode9 & The Spaceape - Autumn Has Come

R.I.P. Spaceape.



Jay Electronica - Exhibit C

Love it so much.
That FOI, Marcus Garvey, Niki Tesla
I shock you like an eel, electric feel, Jay Electra


Radiohead - How To Disappear Completely

My morning song, before I've gathered strength to put my head down and soldier on. I've been through this before. An idea will come.

39/14 - Through The City With Criminal Stealth

School has started. I'm posting this from my new studio, on a balcony overlooking the Laurie Grove Baths. But soon I'll go home, hopping the trains of the London underground. And for that, this week I'm listing five songs I've found extraordinarily suited for evening travels on the tube.


Future Islands - Seasons (Waiting On You)

You know when people change
They gain a peace but they lose one too


James Blake - CMYK

Samples and rhythms; the core of this city and the core of this list.


Kendrick Lamar - Backseat Freestyle

It's go time!


Burial - Near Dark

THE obvious album-choice for nights in the London suburbs.


Earl Sweatshirt - Chum

Much love for that outro. I hope I don't meet a giant frog tonight...
