Not my style of music normally but I cant stop listening to it at the minute!

I'd never heard it on the radio previously.

I have seemingly dropped into a wormhole back to 2007/2008 mostly recently listening to indie from around that time from the likes of the Maccabees and anything else Radio X won't touch anymore.

(13 Mar 2018, 10:12 pm)Andreos1 wrote Forgot all about those albums. Got one or two kicking around somewhere. May need to dig them out!
Thanks for reminding me such a thing existed.

If you haven't already, try 'indie disco' on Absolute 90's if you get a chance. Every Saturday evening if listening live.

Really need to find something different that plays more of the indie stuff I like, mostly from about the last 10 years or do, mainly been using YouTube and my iPod but I keep getting the same few bits coming up each time.

I do like the stuff Radio X play, I just wish we could have a few different acts come up and in quite a few instances, just some different songs from their favourites would be nice.

I have a huge playlist of the music. I'm still happy to hear some of kaiser Chief's and Arctic Monkeys' turn up, especially "When the sun goes down" and "I predict a riot", but the music is underplayed. Radio 6 music used to be good for this type of stuff, but it broadcasts some pretty strange things in its place now.

This is a song I love, it's definitely worth a listen. I've not heard it on the radio or anywhere in the past 10 years outside of my spotify. The title gets its name from the poor Brazilian fella that was murdered by the met office "by accident" in lieu of 7/7. A new level of meaning to the lyrics with that in mind.

But he's Washington's most famous son (sorry Malarkey) and I do like his music.
