New Music | Body Rock

Coming up: DJ Body Rock himself gives us some insight into his influences, maybe past, maybe present, we'll have to wait and see. Lovely stuff. In the meantime, you know the drill, right click and save as, Body Rock's latest mixtape Inspiration Exploitation below including some NMB favourites like Sub Focus & Yeah Yeah Yeah's below.

New Music | Best Coast

Rhythm guitar reminds me a bit of Carla by The Very Sexuals. Super lo-fi but love the reverb, sneaky backing vocals and chilled out guitar work. And if someone would like to pay for me to visit the east and west coasts of the USA, then I shall subsequently confirm or deny their aspersions.

Best Coast - Boyfriend.mp3

New Music | Radiohead | Zed's Dead

The most interesting thing to come out of Canada since... ever? Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead. Indeed.

Not sure what the Illuminati have got to do with anything but I won't go there. What I do know is this is absolutely horrific on paper, but a thing of beauty in real life. And it's Friday!

New Music | The xx | Dark Sky

Like Florence, The xx are incredibly annoying. Sorry guys, but really. However, thanks to Dark Sky I literally couldn't resist this remix. Full on garage style, 2 step to the beat now. I said now.

New Music | Foals

I was definitely in the minority when I got quite excited about seeing Foals at Glastonbury a couple of years back. I reckon there's definitely a lot of hype to come from the NME type crowd for new album Total Life Forever. Could be wrong. Never happened before, but there's a first for everything. Probably not for this though.

Foals - Miami.mp3

Jeff Buckley or Elkie Brooks? Either way, what an awesome tune.

New Music | Broken Bells

Essentially a lesson in how to be the slowest blogger ever, I mean even 90210 beat me to this one, but still, I'm not proud, and if you haven't heard this yet then, well, justice to all you naysayers. Big kiss.

New Music | Crocodiles

This B-side to the single 'Sleep Forever' released 5th July, from the album of the same name, is what should happen when you decide to cover a classic. Welcome to summer.

Crocodiles - Groove Is In The Heart/California Girls

New Music | Wave Machines

I got pretty excited when this tune came off the press, but wasn't sure about the Bee Gees vocals. Thanks then to Artwork who have calmed it down a touch. Enjoy le soleil.
