Neneh Cherry - Man (1996)
A bit of Neneh this evening was warranted following an earlier full on, engulfed-by-music moment while driving back into Nelson this afternoon.

Dean Wareham - I Have Nothing to Say to the Mayor of L.A. (2021)
One of my favourite first songs on any record in my collection is Luna’s “Chinatown” from their album Penthouse. This new record from legendary* Kiwi Muscian Dean Wareham, reignites that moment.

Car Stereo Wars - For Your Comfort And Safety (2008)
Another selection from my penny each, CD haul from the Red Cross shop. There’s almost nothing much on the interweb about this Melbourne-based band or this recording.

Hot Chip - Why Make Sense? (2015)
On paper, I should probably hate this band. Instead, and despite their electronic, dance-focused, clubiness I fully imbrace all they have done.

Vanishing Twin - Choose Your Own Adventure (2016)
While the influences on this, Vanishing Twin’s first record are clear, it’s nearly impossible to categorise. Dream-pop weirdness interweaves with more grounded song structures and several songs clearly fit into the Stereolab and Broadcast camp.
