Temples - Sun Structures (2014)
Brilliant debut from 4 Kettering lads. Along with Tame Impala, who springs to mind immediately, these neo-retro specialists are stuck in a mid to late 60’s time warp.

Assoicates - Sulk (1982)
Billie Mackenzie had one of the most distinctive and extraordinary voices in pop/rock history. He eventually met a tragic, self-inflicted demise despite being an exceptional but underappreciated talent.

Polica - United Crushers (2016)
On pink vinyl. I can honestly say that no one makes music quite like Polica. It is however, a band that gets right inside my brain and like any mind altering phenomena, I just want more but I’m not sure why?

Grouplove - Big Mess (2016)
I didn’t know much about this LA group before impulsively booking a ticket to see them play at the Electric Ballroom in Camden.

Shellac - Dude Incredible (2014)
This is just an earthy, no frills, 3 piece (including the legendary Steve Albini) making another great racket. Probably the antithesis of the previous Grouplove session.

Susie Hug - Tuscon Moonshine (2010)
On a previous trip to the UK (2010) I was busy trawling through the bins at Sister Ray Records and heard this superb album playing.
