Don”™t do it, kids. Seriously. Just stay at home. I”™m feeling like 17 tonnes of horrible today. It”™s been a very busy week, very stressful. Speaking of stress, Stressechos (the band that Ben drums in when he”™s not giving out free candy to children) cut an 4 track EP yesterday. I had a sneak listen to it and I have to say, I”™m blown away. Further proof that there is more to the Cheltenham music scene than new-folk (not knocking new-folk, here. Just sayin”™, is all). Is it “new-folk” or “nu-folk”? Gah, that conjures up horrible images of Fred Durst with a resonator”¦

Anyway, without further delay, here is today”™s playlist. Bought to you by my very own Joform Hawling, entitled “Indie Disco”. Have a listen.

This morning could have gone so far south that it would have been wearing one of those hats with corks on. You see, through a series of events I managed to lock myself out of my own house this morning. I didn”™t have a key to get in, and I needed a shower and a change of clothes before I headed to work. I was already late for work. Luckily, I was saved by Jo, who ran to my rescue and saved my day. As such, I”™m running her playlist today. Oh, also, Magical Kev gets props like agro for being the wheelman this morning. That”™s how you drive, from now on – THATS HOW YOU DRIVE. If you need a getaway driver, I recommend Kev.

David told me that we had a submission last night that really compliments yesterdays fantastic mix. Rather than running them back to back, we have decided to mix it up a little. Keep your eyes peeled for it, though.

Okay, I”™m in need of some coffee. So I”™m off to sort that out. In the meantime, here is the fantastical Jo and her fantastical Spotisfaction. Peas.

“Out of some desire to do something other than sit around and rot, the men known as David Prowse and Thom Lavelle decided to sit around and rot whilst swapping Spotify playlists and blogging about them”¦”

Well hello there. It”™s Tuesday. By now you should all know how I feel about Tuesdays. But today is different. Today we have the quite amazing Jo Hawling to save us from what is quite possibly the worst day of the week, generally speaking. I”™ll hand over to her”¦ now.

Playlist is here

Jo says:
Thought you could use a lick of retro so here”™s a free pass to a very good summer that I spent in headphones, blissfully ignorant of the outside that is. Designed to drag you from apathy to bliss via angst, what? and random.

Dusty nuggets include ”˜Twinkle”™ by whipping boy which is like so the most, ”˜Teen Age Riot”™ by Sonic Youth which is a ninja head butt, ”˜Girl at the bus stop”™ by my drug hell which hooks you with hookness and ”˜Halcyon and on and on”™ by orbital which is stealth and soul and quite simply, music to fuck to.

Enjoy
