Greetings folks,
Well, the last #LC of the year, and the lurgy has been banished, lights are twinkling, the tree is up, the booze delivery is neatly stashed, a bit of snow has fallen and all is harmonious within the house. Outside, well... the less said about that the better, a sentiment that I'm sure will be echoed countless times by many over the next few weeks. So, let's make the most of what we have, and help others do the same and more, while we still can, eh?
#FESTIVEVORTEX alert: we're back on 30th Dec with our, and that means your, favourite tunes of this year, so pick a couple out and send 'em in, the sooner the better!
Last week, @mutster101 was in the chair, getting us all electro-funky with his pick of Cabaret Voltaire's "Micro-Phonies" from 1984. Thanks to Gareth for the pick, and for sailing the frisb across to Wales, where @holette is waiting with this to say...
“It’s not Christmassy. Those seeking festive cheer might as well pick up their port and look away now.
This is an unsettling listen. I’ve chosen it because if there’s an album which sounds like being in Britain at the end of 2018, for me this is it.
This artist came out of nowhere to me with an album that sounds vital, confrontational, musically astounding and frankly a bit scary. There’s a strong and sinister performative aspect to the music and the accompanying videos are well worth watching.
I hope you find it absorbing - it definitely warrants a few listens as there’s so much depth and intricacy to the music, lyrics and samples.
Anyway, it’ll be a break from Slade.”
Nothing wrong with Slade. It's the Wham I have a problem with, personally. Anyways, direct download is here, and the HearThis stream is below:
See you at 8pm GMT tonight, and wishing you all a peaceful and joyful holiday season.
