Do you want to compare stressful commutes?

I only live 6 miles from work and cycle 2 days of those so very stress free actually...

"Spirit of Talk Talk", the covers album from last year, for the first time. Pretty good. Almost entirely respectful to the originals (but that's nothing to worry about) plus the odd real pearl of a version: I'm thinking "Myrrhman" by Joan As Police Woman, "?" by Jack Northover and "It's Getting Late in the Evening" by Nils Frahm, Peter Broderick and Davide Rossi.

Thanks for the tips - more stuff I look forward to hearing. for the first time...

Right now, myself and Mr 'Geigertek' Fellowes have just discovered a wonderful accident.
I was playing Hildegard von Bingen's Music and Visions

And he was playing Thomas Tallis Lamentations

By a marvellous piece of mixed up spontaneous chance, I put them both on simultaneously.
A dreamy piece of sublime wonderfulness ensued...

Vile Electrodes - The Future Through A Lens

After a long delay, my CD finally arrived yesterday. First impressions are favourable - seems a fine debut album.

I've had a digital copy for a week now in lui of the limited edition CD which should be with me tomorrow so Ms Neon tells me.

Damned fine album and well worth the wait.

Found this oddly appealing. Was posted on Facebook by Julianne Regan (who could probably do an excellent colab with Mr Foxx). Not heard of Stalker before, anyone here heard of them?

>>>You are my everything<<<<

Not a cover version BTW (before you all start humming Diana and Marvin's song!!).

Prefab Sprout - Crimson/Red New album from Paddy Macaloon. Not as good as his 80's hey-day but a grower.

Steven Wilson - The Raven That Refused To Sing. Still album of the year.

Gary Numan - Splinter

First listen, but I've already got a really good feeling about this album ....

Hope to buy this tomorrow.
