🎵Now Playing: Joshua Idehen - Mum Does The Washing EP (2024)

My Spotify algorithm came good suggesting this to me. Absolutely loved it. Sharp, clever, heartfelt lyrics with great production. I see he’s playing Manchester in April, might have to grab a ticket.

Best Tracks:

  • Mum Does The Washing
  • Could Be Forever
  • Tactics for Survival
  • Once in a Lifetime (Talking Heads cover)

Cultural Diet - November 2024

A run down of everything I’ve consumed this month.

November has been busy. I’ve overdone it and December is supposed to be the month of excess. It has, however, also been fun. And that’s important too.

🎵Now Playing: Yannis & The Yaw - Lagos Paris London EP (2024)

A dream collaboration between The Foals singer and the legendary drummer Tony Allen. Result is a Foals-y sound with the groove turned up to 11.

Best tracks:

  • Rain Can’t Reach Us
  • Clementine

🎵Now Playing: Chemical Brothers - Planet Dust (1995)

They didn’t make this album for listening to at work, they made it for dancing.

Best tracks:

  • Leave Home
  • Chemical Beats
  • One Too Many Mornings

🎵Now Playing: Kendrick Lamar - GNX (2024)

Had to give this a chance after all the hype. Not my fave of his back catalog, but it could be a grower.

Best tracks:

  • squabble up
  • reincarnation
  • tv off (aka MUSSSTTTAAARRRDDD)
  • heart pt.6
