New Order - Retro (2002)

I really struggle with New Order these days. Despite this, I can still play Joy Division to death. For me they just haven’t aged well.

Orchestra Of Spheres - Brothers And Sisters Of The Black Lagoon (2016)

Recorded live at the Pyramid and Meow Clubs in Wellington during December 2014. Channeling ancient future funk from the IS! Warping spatioelastoplasticity with sound!

Kevin Rowland - My Beauty (1999)

This universally panned solo record by the Dexy’s Midnight Runner front man is an absolute treasure. The controversial cover probably didn’t help matters but it’s clear the critics weren’t actually listening.
