24/16 - Some Do Magic and Some Do Harm

The cold is seeping through the window. I walk outside of it. Inside the dark kitchen ghostly voices rattle like dead leaves. It is the season for feeling and filling voids.


Viktor Vaughn ft. M. Sayyid - Never Dead

M. Sayyid from Anti Pop Consortium sharing a track with Doom? Two of my favourite flows ever converging in a flood. Yes please!


OutKast - Knowing

Every action has a positive and equal reaction
Therefore everything that goes around comes around in that fashion


Alton Ellis - Black Man's World

Those who've been to 'The Infinite Mix' exhibition in London know how infectious that chorus is. "Ooooo-uuuuh-ooooooh! I was born a loser!" is repeated over and over again in Cyprien Gallard's mesmerising video work, and afterwards you just have to find the source, and keep listening to that perfect ghostly falsetto lift forever-ever.


Kate Tempest - Europe Is Lost

BBC6 has ground down my resistance and finally sold me on Kate Tempest. This beat sounds like it could have been on Pusha T's latest release, and the lyrics sum up all of the zeitgeist you don't want to think about, but can't help picking, like a scab.


Fever Ray - I'm Not Done

October has arrived and it's time to take out the true autumn albums. Now that The Knife is over, can we hope for a new Fever Ray album at some future point? She says she's not done...
Do you laugh while screaming:'Is it cold outside?'
