Heard a few good tracks on 6 Music at work today so I thought I'd share. Being less strict about music this Ramadan, though my listening is basically limited to work or the few times when I'm alone, so a lot less listening going on than normal.
First off, a track by a new quintet from Liverpool called Outfit. I quite like it, even though it reminds me of Hot Chip a bit:
Next a track I know nothing at all about. It's got that afrobeat sound that was big a few years ago. Funny how certain styles become fashionable and then go out of fashion again just as quickly?
Last track is an old one by Muse which I hadn't heard in ages. I like it's relative simplicity, especially when compared to Muse's more current output:
I'll end up with some links which you can check out if you're fast! They're album previews that won't be up long:
NPR's got Moderat's latest and it's well worth a listen.
And AlunaGeorge are streaming their debut album on their website at the moment.
That last due are also coming to DC in September. Quite a lot of good shows coming up actually -- off the top of my head there's Toro Y Moi touring with Classixx, Mount Kimbie, Bonobo and Gold Panda both coming back, and at least a couple more gigs I'm forgetting. Roll on autumn!
