poptimistsDear poptimists,
I am going to stay with my folks for a few days, where I will be largely cut off from the outside world i.e. the internet, which is an excellent opportunity to catch up on albums from 2009 that I have not yet caught up with. So far I have heard a few things that people have been shouting quite loudly about e.g. Electrik Red, Blaqkout, Rick Ross for some reason, and Silversun Pickups. Hmm... apparently I have only been listening to Lex and Moggy's advice so far this year. Any suggestions welcome.... and if I was to try and listen to something by this Michael Jackson fellow we've been hearing a lot about, I assume Off the Wall is the place to start? Thank you in advance,
yours with an enquiring mind

Date: 2009-07-15 10:44 am (UTC)The only stuff I really like so far this year is Elektrik Red, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Quik and Kurupt and erm Morrissey, who frankly won't be about to convert any unconverteds.
Oh you should hear that 30 minute Guido mix Lex (was it Lex?) posted a while back, it's excellent, the melodicism reminded me of Omni Trio a bit. Dunno where the link is though...

Assuming you like both to at least some extent.
