None of these songs would be played in NG1

Sooz reminded me that I hadn't posted in a while the other day, and so I return to appease my adoring fans and satiate your cravings for phat ch00ns. Also, my conscience dictated that this blog has to have at least one post that doesn't feature songs that would be played in Nottingham's favourite den of sin and iniquity. And Spooks is on soon - I'm so excited I can't sit still!

Actually, work has just been grinding down my motivation to find new music (and do anything else) recently. The real world sucks! But my dear sister was home at the weekend, together with her usual demands that I fill up her iPod with the middle-of-the-road's latest and greatest, so I was prodded in to finding some exciting things to restore my musical karma.

I'm going to start off with my new favourite song. It's by Lupe Fiasco (who I've posted before), and is called Daydreamin'. It uses that incredibly catchy "Daydream, fell asleep among the flowers" sample that Beta Band and i-monster used a few years ago, and its become the most played song on my iPod in about two weeks. If you like this, his whole album is fantastic.

Next we'll have some jingly-jangly indie pop, because everyone loves jingly-jangly indie pop. This band is called The Morning Benders (not a name that does much for my no-NG1 policy) and the song is called Grain of Salt. It cheers me up every time I listen to it

Thats all I've got for the moment, so here's a kitty to tide you over till next time:
