Re- Re- START!

Hey you geezas,

Vacation was swell. But alas, it has come to an end. It was a summer full of music i'd say. With Lily Allen scoring an obvious summerhit and the flute-driven song of Peter, Bjorn and John still buzzin round my head, music being boomed right off the net, it was one hot summer! This year this blog will be bustin you with the newest, weirdest en neatest new music. Whether it's britpop, dance or punk you can ride this wave with me. I'll show you the way.

For the restart of my blog here are some songs i picked up in the time was away:

Mocky- Extended Vacation ('Navy Brown Blues', 2006) site
On Lowlands Festival went to check out Mocky and he was very weird. In a good way. Dressed up like a clown, acts like a clown. Can't really sing and can't really rap, but speaks over the band driven music. This song was a real party back there. He called this their 'Las Vegas Show'-tune and still beats the hell out of me. (Pop)

The Sunshine Underground- I Ain't Losing Any Sleep ('Raise The Alarm', 2006) site
I Remember checking them out on London Calling Festival last year and i was really psyched about them. There's an album now and i'm not really crazy about it but this song i remember from their show and it's a good one. (Dance/Punk)

Captain- Broke ('This Is Hazelville', 2006) site
This was already a single from the forthcoming album. But it's really a standout on their album check it out! (Britpop)

Larrikin Love- Downing St. Kindling ('The Freedom Spark, 2006) site
Another british act from last years London Calling Festival. Really energetic mix of ska, britpop and folk. A protest song about ditching England.
