A million people coming on Friday

I'll have to make this brief, I'm having a hugely busy time of things at the moment, and my Glastonbury preparations are nowhere near complete. I'm really not looking forward to the mudbath that awaits me in Somerset this week, but given that I've paid 150 quid for it, and the lineup looks incredible, I'll quit my moaning and just have a good time.


Scout Niblett - Dinosaur Egg

This is a beautiful little ditty about, variously, a Dinosaur Egg, a Robot Slave and a Tortured Spirit. The subject of the song desperately needs her dinosaur egg to hatch, because she's got "a million people coming on friday, and they want to see a dinosaur, not an egg!". If I were you, love, I'd buy one of those incubator jobbys. They'll get it done a treat.


Plushgun - How We Roll
Despite having a title that sounds like it's straight outta Compton, this track is more of a drive along a neon-lit 80s highway. I love this, but I'm not sure what to do with it. It's a bit too dance-y for a driving CD, but it's not quite dancefloor material (for me, anyway) so I'll prolly just whack it on a load of mix cds for friends. Hmm.


Javelin vs Polytron vs Kompletski - Moscow 1980
Lastly, this little gem has been firmly stuck in my head for the best part of a week. Fluokids posted it up a while back, WIRED have blogged about it here and it's another one to file under 'delightful', particularly the little giggle halfway through one of the verses. I believe it's a remix/cover of one of the official themes from the 1980 Moscow Olympics - perfect for those of you who have a bit of a fascination with ex-Soviet stuff, like I do.

Lemme know what you reckon to any/all of this stuff in the comments. Had a few emails from readers recently too - you're more than welcome to get in touch if you'd like to - my email address is in the right hand column. Take care, have a lovely week, and my next post will be after Glastonbury. Wish me sun.
