roots manuva 'witness' 12", i think this guy is HILLARIOUS, quality UK (dancehall-tinged) hip hop on ninja tune/big dada. (good) uk hip hop in the national charts? just outside the top 40 anyway... go rodney!!
shannon 'let the music play' lp (bargain at £7!)
avelanches lp (lush stuff to put on in the car for driving out on summer afternoons...aaahhh)
spacek 'getaway/how do i move' 12" (UK r'n'b (or whateva u wanna call it)- the synthlines on 'how do i move' r gorgeous, and the bass is purrfect! a pretty sultry sounding affair, pretty smooth i guess but well different)
'warm love' joanna law 12" (cover of a van morrison song, its not bad but its kinda long and doesn't go anywhere after a point)
norma jean bell 12" white label...techy-house thing, quite distinctive tho'...got strings in it and an obscure filtered signature loop (not filtered as in filter-house/disco) and a jazzy vocal sample, simple but neat hi-hat/snare pattern - bit of a club thing really, not much changes in it for the duration, really repetitive (but good).
'songs in the key of life' stevie wonder (£10!!!)
cheers,
hc
