Sesame Street taught me a lot of things – how to share, how to hate Elmo, how to count to ten in Spanish (thank you Celia Cruz). And I’m, you know, all grown-up and shizz now, but Sesame Street still holds a rather precious place in my heart. … Continue Reading

There are a variety of things in this world that I love. My mother for example, or that selection pack of Green and Blacks chocolate (have you tried the butterscotch – it is delish!) However, very few can compare when it comes to the genius that is Flight of the Concords, these guys have my complete and utter devotion. Put simply – they rule! … Continue Reading

Last night was a night of excess. There were margaritas and chocolate cake and various kinds of curry. And tigers. … Continue Reading

MEN is the new band of Le Tigre singer and uber-cutie JD Samson, playing a sort of tribal disco dance, throbbing jungle beats fizzing with disco fistles. While JD’s handsome boy looks (cute moustache or what) would get the band a devoted fan base if they just stood on stage kicking the floor, this band have got a lot to offer beyond androgynous eye-candy. … Continue Reading

Have you ever heard a song you only kind of liked at first? A song that didn’t appeal to you for the longest of times, but slowly, surely, over time, crept onto your playlists, Spotify and youtube selections? A song that, like fungus, just kind of grew on you?

I wouldn’t be surprised if in her next video Beyonce appears naked from the waist down gyrating against a cup. Seriously, Mrs Jay Z must get up to some freaky-deaky stuff in her spare time if her latest video, elaborately titled ‘Video Phone’, is anything to go by. Now, I have to admit I’m not really a Beyonce fan, for reasons I’d rather not express online (I ain’t gon diss her on the internet). However, I hate to admit that I do like this video. Mostly because of the guest appearance put in by my one true love Lady Gaga (We were SO meant to be!) … Continue Reading

Stating that Shakira knows how to dance is a bit like saying Trevor off Eastenders (remember him?) was a bad man – talk about the bleeding obvious! From the moment the Columbian songstress first exploded onto our screens with her vigorous hip wiggling and provocative moves, Shakira has been known to push the art of gyration to new peaks, raising the bar for other performers whilst spawning a generation of teens all desperate to learn her ‘signature move’.

Its pretty much common knowledge/blatant fact that Beth Ditto is totally amazing. Her voice, IMO, is something like caramel mixed with whisky and I’m not sure there’s a song in existence that wouldn’t sound incredible if her silky vocals were applied. … Continue Reading

She’s the winner of this year’s Brit Awards Critics’ Choice prize for the act most likely to break through in 2010, she’s toured the UK supporting Little Boots as well as featuring on the prolific ‘Later… With Jools Holland’ show and… she just so happens to have the best bush I’ve seen in yonks (probably since the last time I used the word ‘yonks’ in fact, which was a considerable number of years ago). Her name is Ellie Goulding, and if you haven’t heard of her by now, then you can bet your first-born child (adoptive or otherwise) that by the time twenty-ten is through, she’ll be all over your respective sound systems like a melted shell-suit. … Continue Reading

I really hate being late for gigs. So when I turned up several minutes into November Fleet’s set at Camden Barfly, I was understandably irritated. On this occasion, though, my lateness might have been a good thing … Continue Reading
