Listening to snippets of NinjaTune XX (6 CD boxset) of previously unreleased mixes and tracks. Real box of goodies here. Only wish I could stump up the $160 to buy it...

I'd love this LV, but £100 is pretty steep!

Did you manage to pick up "Solid Steel 1988-2008 : 20 Years Of The Broadest Beats"?

Over 40 hours of mixes from the radio show.....

Sadly, no I do not have it. Missed the boat on this and can't find it anywhere......... Do you have it? ;)

I have just looked for it in the Ninja shop for you but it appears it's no longer for sale.

 

Fortunately I have a copy, it's about 4GB.

I'm more than happy to do a copy for you.

PM me and we'll get it sorted.

Delays new album (Star Tiger, Star Ariel) is probably their best if least immediate album. Other than that, Elvis Costello's Armed Forces (although it's 3 songs too long) and Serge Gainsburg's Du jazz du la revin at the moment. There are some good moments on the free o)-I-> album that came with the Mirror.

 

Off to V tomorrow with the Mrs, can't really say I'm looking forward to seeing anyone other than The Coral and Seasick Steve, the rest of the lineup is horrendous. I don't suppose any of the lesser known bands are any good on the bill???

The Charlatans offer a good option as headliner instead of KOL

 

Prodigy will be good live

Ha ha, I love a musical snob. I used to be just like you; only liking what the NME tells me to. However, I grew up, got a girlfriend and learned to love a well put together pop song. Still, I can always go back and listen to Bobby Gillespie's excellent rapping on XTRMNTR ;)

I wasn't too impressed with the line up. Do check out Passion Pit though, They are a really good band who do well live aswell. The other recomendation i'd have would be the Eels. They got some great past tracks and there newer stuff is ruddy good also.

Various Artists - 'Strange Games and Funky Things III'

A 3 CD set that is a great compilation for rare groove lovers.

Disc 3 is a mix (of most of discs 1 & 2) by Kenny 'Dope' Gonzalez and is without a doubt one of my 5 top mixes of all time.

I bought this 10 years ago and I still haven't tired of it.

Killing Joke-Brighter Than A Thousand Suns

 

Wise man. I was only introduced to these last year as im a bit of a spring chicken. But my word, what a band. Was nice to see where one a personal favourite riff was pretty much bumped from aswell i.e Nirvana - 'Come as you Are' and 'Eighties'. I love all there stuff as I have every album now, but there debut is by far there best, although I can't help but have a soft spot for the 2003 'Killing Joke' album, purely because Sir David Grohl is on drums! :D
