ashley beedle - 1998 essential mix (part 2) (mp3)
last january i bought a house and began renovating it. this old house was built in 1947, and had (apologies for the clichã©) one lady owner, with no work having been done on the house for almost 60 years. […]
Where the hell’s my stupid rock lobster?
b52s - rock lobster (mp3)
another best foot forward favourite, and what must be one of the greatest pop singles of all time (wow, even rolling stone agrees!). shame on me, but i first stumbled on this whilst collecting tracks mentioned in simon reynold’s gripping rip it up and start again and was blown away by […]

Feelin’ good (but bored of mp3’s)…
francine mcgee - feelin’ good (mp3)
due to a move abroad, i am currently in the process of burning all my records to mp3. to say this is a pain in the arse, would be somewhat of an understatement, so if anyone can thing of a way of magically changing all my records into mp3’s, […]
Ting tings are looking up
the ting tings - that’s not my name (mp3)
whilst foraging through your rss feeds or rummaging through your well worn bookmarks you may well have seen this on other mp3 blogs of late. however, i felt compelled to let the unbridled joy of this little ditty into our summer of rain and despair. the sun […]
10 for a pound…
onion display - norzin wangdu (mp3)
was just digging through some old records this morning and i stumbled across a sunday best compilation album from 1998. one of my favourite tracks on the album has always been ‘norzin wangdu’ by onion display. i hadn’t listened to this in absolutely ages, so as i whacked it […]
Beef rock - the fall out report
breakwater - release the beast (mp3)
the yellow moon band - chimney (mp3)
well thanks to all who came down to saturday’s rock special, props are due to mr christopher “stevo” stephenson stevenson for the original guitar-led concept and mr daniel “danny” webb for keeping the place rocking whilst myself and mark got a little worse for […]
A thank you from me…
edwin birdsong - cola bottle baby (mp3)
so it’s the day after, d-percussion is no more, and i can look forward to a good night’s sleep.
but i must say a huge thank you to kev and mark from this very blog for doing a sterling job during the afternoon, despite their ‘bizarre’ (ahem) set time! […]
D-percussion invasion…
venus gang - love to fly (mp3)
most of our manchester based readers should know that it’s the wonderful d-percussion festival over the weekend - the last one ever apparently…
anyway, our good friend and occasional bff contributor, mr ryan hunn, has invited the bff dj team (me and kev) to play down on the […]
Spider-pig
arthur russell - springfield (mp3)
drunk and with a brew to hand, is there really a better recipe for blog magic?
of late i’ve been at the mercy of several obsessions. there’s every bank manager’s wet dream that is gemm, the why-on-earth-hasn’t-anyone-forced-me-to-listen-to-these-before stereolab, something super secret and this man.
i know kev’s posted a couple of things that […]
