I can't see myself delving into the itunes world too soon

God, I don't know Damian, here am I on the other side of the world, feeling slightly out of touch (although admittedly the joy of sitting in paradise..and finally having broadband here..alleviates the pain somewhat) and you want me to tell you what to listen to..
So newish..what works for me right now...well I've been loving the delightfully named FuckPony album, especially the track Freaky Stories of Earth..kind of 1986 Chicago mashed with the future, if you know what I mean (I don't). The Simian Disco Machine remix of The Rapture's Whoo Alright is really good loud. Ferrer & Sydenham's Timuktu as remixed by Ame is very subtle. I really like the Laurent Garnier retropsective, especially the live version of Acid Eiffel, and the Giles Peterson & Patrick Forge Dingwalls compilation is amazing. The LCD remix of Arthur Russell's Springfield that has just come out is my favourite single right now. But the record that I'm listening to most is the unreleased album from The Others (the Auckland band, not the UK one), due out next year..double album..epic landscapes, incredible verbal twists, quite amazing. I haven't played much else for the past week
