Morning kids. How good was yesterday”™s playlist? Good god-damn. Well played, Fozz, well played.

Today”™s playlist looks equally as sharp and comes courtesy of Mr. Ben Hawling. I, for one, am very excited about this one – even the S Club Juniors track. Yep, that”™s right, I said it. I”™m a queen, I don”™t even care.

With that shocking revelation, Imma hand over to Ben now.

Godspeed!

Ahhh here goes (said in Keenan and Kel style”¦”¦”¦..):

The glorious playlist that you are currently listening to represents, quite simply, all my pasts and futures.

I was trying to think of a really smart, over arching statement to adequetly sum up my general thought direction, but then my noodles had finished boiling, so everything else in the world suddenly didnt matter. Anyway, half the songs on here have been with me through thick and thin, and have moulded my life in bizzare, yet beautiful ways. The other half are tunes that have hit me between the eyes in recent times, and are screaming to be heard and adored. If you”™re really that interested, the tracks that have acted as my parachutes through the years include, ”˜One More Time”™ by Daft Punk, which incidentally is my favourite ever song for the soul purpose that always seems to playing when i”™m at my most happiest, and makes me smile out loud! Also, ”˜Like Spinning Plates”™ by Radiohead, as makes me feel like I”™m completly relaxed upon a mesh of lasers, and calms the storms in my head, seriously. And ”˜Being A Girl”™ by Mansun, simply because anything that this band have ever done pretty much sums up what my mind looks and sounds like; every glitchy, sparkly, muddled bit of it.

So there you go. No fancy bullshit. This playlist is my life as it has been, is, and will be, i hope! Nuff said!

I”™m really looking forward to this one. What am I saying? I look forward to all of them. I”™m hoping that I”™m going to get down and craft one of these myself this week, my head is spinning to listen to new music. I had the pleasure of meeting today”™s guest at a Cheltenham Underground night and I have to say, he was pretty awesome. Much sexier and more charming than David. Anyway, plug in and listen to this stuff.

Also, submissions people. PLAEZ CAN WE HAZ MOAR SUBMISSIONS. I”™m going to do an overhall of everything at the weekend, so making submissios is going to be easier going forward. In fact, big ideas – coming soon. Right, I”™m gonna drink this here orange juice and listen to todays mix. Over to Fozz. Oh, and serious respect for the blurb. You are winner.

OK, so Dave asked me to come up with a playlist for this malarkey a while ago so I thought I”™d throw a handful tracks together and see what happens. While the previous playlists have had some awesome tracks in them I felt that a few more remixes were needed. I know the rules say to try and keep things varied, and most of these tracks are quite electro, but I though I”™d push the boat out. A lot of the stuff in my list has been blogged about fairly recently on the Hype Machine and, to be honest, I”™m quite surprised that I managed to find a lot of it on Spotify. I don”™t really have any personal reasons for choosing any of the tracks other than the fact that I think they sound freakin”™ kick-ass. Simple as. So crank up the volume and enjoy.

I thought I”™d kick things off with TrentemÃ¸ller”™s remix of “What Else Is There?” by RÃ¶yksopp, which is probably my favourite track in the list. I first heard TrentemÃ¸ller”™s album “The Last Resort” a couple of years ago and was instantly hooked by the haunting minimalistic and downtempo beats. I”™m also a big fan of RÃ¶yksopp, so the combination of the two was destined for awesomeness.

I”™ve listened to a few Breakbot remixes lately and I find that they can be very hit-and-miss. Fortunately, this remix of “Bathroom Gurgle” by Late of the Pier really hits the spot for me. In a non-sexual way that is.

The Hey Champ remix of “What You Need” is a down-right sublime track. If this doesn”™t bring back memories of lazy summer days, supping on a beer then nothing will.

I tried to avoid duplicating artists in my list, but there are so many awesome remixes of various RÃ¶yksopp songs out there that I just had to include the Boys Noize remix of “Happy Up Here” as well. Hell, I could probably make an entire playlist consisting purely of RÃ¶yksopp remixes, but I thought that might be pushing my luck just a little bit.

“Dance” by Hawa is not a remix but is actually a rather quirky cover of “D.A.N.C.E.” by Justice, done brilliantly in a 1960s soul-funk style. I stuck it somewhere near the middle of the list to break things up a bit and so that I could say I”™d added a bit of variety!

I”™m really not a massive fan of Tiga in the slightest, I think he can be an arrogant and irritating, and this also tends to manifest itself in his music. But I must admit that there is something annoyingly catchy about “Sex O”™Clock”, and this remix of it certainly improves on the original.

“Paradise Circus” is off the “Heligoland” album, the latest offering from Massive Attack, and luckily the version of the album on Spotify comes with Breakage”™s remix.

The Sebastian remix of “Cheap and Cheerful” by The Kills has been around for a couple of years now, but it is an old favourite of mine so I thought I”™d tack it onto the end just to round things off nicely.

Over and out.

I haven”™t had chance to post recently, it”™s been a pretty wild April that has managed to near bankrupt me. Lots of news, lots of news. I”™d planed to update later this week with enough stuff to make up for the last week or so of quiet. However, this couldn”™t really wait. The Digital Economy Bill

Sit up and take note, people. This is important. It damn well is. Trust me, sitting this one out will piss the Spotisfaction boys to no end. So make sure you damn well read it. And ACT, for the love of God. Unless you are a soul-less, ball-less no brain who is happy to sit on and smile whilst the condiments that are your liberties are being taken from the dinner table that is your life. I for one love a bit of wasabi. Don”™t let them take our wasabi!
