Playlist #4

The worst named feature returns for your listening pleasure!

Some cheery sunshine indie/folk for you all via Mystery Jets and Johnny Flynn,  I’ve been banging on about both lately and they’ve  dropped some appetizers from their forthcoming albums. From the mellow to the manic as digital hardcore anti-fascist’s Atari Teenage Riot return following a ten-year hiatus with ‘Activate’ a furious industrial, rave-rock massacre! A wee bit less intense but equally great is the driving beats and bass of South Central’s remix of ‘Flush’ and chilling things the fuck out is Falty DL giving Mount Kimbie a liquid ambient rejiggle.

Mp3: Losers – Flush (South Central Remix)

Mp3: Johnny Flynn – Kentucky Pill

Mp3: Mystery Jets – Flash a Hungry Smile

Mp3: Atari Teenage Riot – Activate

Mp3: Mount Kimbie – Serged (FaltyDL Remix)

Playlist #3

Third time lucky? I think not! I don’t mean the tunes of course, I need to come up with a better name for this feature, suggestions are very welcome.

This week is a mixed bag with two top remixes from Delphic and Alex Metric of Phoenix and Gorillaz respectively. Whoever said it was the Germans were stuck in the 80’s? Perhaps it was David Hasselhoff himself to preserve a career beyond eating burgers off the ground. None the less Jamaica follow the Vanguard French revival led Minitel Rose, Kavinsky and others. No need to fret straight up rock n roll will not be ignored and Austin garage punksters Harlem don’t disappoint with their jangley strokes-esque ‘Friendly Ghost’. Last but not least is ‘Flakes’ from Mystery Jets ahead of their impending Dublin performance tomorrow night in The Academy (Volcanic ash permitting perhaps).

Mp3: Harlem – Friendly Ghost

Mp3: Phoenix – Fences (Delphic Remix)

Mp3: Jamaica – I Think I Like U 2

Mp3: Gorillaz – Stylo (Alex Metric Remix)

Playlist #2

Right it’s time for round 2. It’s been a strange auld week with Easter, the long weekend, parades and gargling messing up my flow, so I didn’t really get around to posting some of the stuff I had hoped (next week I promise). This weeks playlist is a wee bit electro heavy with Free The Robots, Zombie Nation and Shout Out Out Out Out severely outnumbering Indie experimentalists Suckers and Soulful-Hip-Hop-ers Ozomatli. Maybe this blogging malarkey has cured me of my renowned predilection for NME type indie bands, or perhaps there all shite these days, who knows?

Mp3: Free The Robots – Orion’s Beltbuckle

Mp3: Zombie Nation – The Mind of Many

Playlist #1

Hopefully this can become a regular feature on the blog, I have decided to post a playlist consisting of a few tunes (posted elsewhere or emailed to me), that have been getting extensive attention here at barrygruff towers.

The inaugural playlist includes (drumroll please), remixes of Audio Bully’s, Two Door Cinema Club and Mr. Oizo as well as a new Holy Fuck tune and a b-side from MC Kenan Bell.  This should hopefully be more than enough to keep you going over the long weekend.

Mp3: Audio Bullys – Only Man (Reset! Remix)

Mp3: Holy Fuck – Latin America

Mp3: Two Door Cinema Club – Something Good Can Work (The Twelves Remix)

Mp3: Mr Oizo – Positif  (Rawkus Noise! re-edit)
