Cassette Culture Old

Its weird how your taste in music changes over time. I picked up the A-trak remix of Boys Noize "Oh!" about 3 months ago and thought it was alright but nothing special. God knows why - I heard it again today and just thought "wow!". And I've definately been getting into more Boys Noize recently after hearing that Justice - Phantom II remix he did. Corkin' stuff. AND, now he's handing out Christmas presents! He released this Shadow Dancer remix of Shine Shine as a festive gift to us all. Bless.

When I post music on Cassette Culture, it's obviously stuff I'm passionate about. But there's a difference between being passionate about a track and being very passionate about a track. There's tracks you see a few times, seem to get on with well and maybe take on a romantic weekend. Then there's tracks you want to marry.

I want to marry this track.

When I first heard it I was slightly startled, as I imagine you will be, by the bizarre lyrics. And to be honest a little put off by the man with the deep voice who feels he needs to echo everything in the chorus.

But nay!! These are not problems. After a few listens I was quite happily singing along about pencils and enjoying the mellow harmonies of aforementioned deep-voice bloke. This track is just so damm kool (I found it on the Urban Outfitters playlist so I guess it must be - that's a pretty kool place). Ah! Listen!

Hi folks, I was going to take a break for Christmas but thought I'd better alert you to this! Amazon.co.uk are giving £3 off any MP3 downloads from their new MP3 download store. There's no minimum spend and you can get some cracking albums for £3 anyway - so essentially they're free! Just enter FREEMP3S in the voucher code section when you place the order. The offer ends today and is limited to one voucher per customer.

The best ones I have found are:

The Killers - Day & Age

Justice - Cross

Air - Moon Safari

Ladyhawke - Ladyhawke


There's plenty more to choose from at the MP3 store although apart from those above, the selection of £3 albums is fairly poor. Still, if you want to buy anything its nice to have £3 off!

Well Christmas Eve - Christmas song I suppose. I bet Anoraak were rather chuffed to find there was a song entitled "Anorak Christmas" - so chuffed they remixed the thing. So I'll leave you with this mellow electro meandering, wish you a merry christmas (if indeed you are celebrating christmas) and see you after the big day.
