The apples in stereo on your stereo (or on your apple, unless you’ve got a PC of course)
the apples in stereo - sunndal song (mp3)
by way of a complete contrast to my last post, here’s three and a half minutes of pop complete with ace piano riff, vocoder vocals and a guitar solo only a minute and a quarter of the way in. it comes courtesy of founding elephant 6 group the […]
To Mexico - in a jeepster!
the coasters - down in mexico (mp3)
t-rex - jeepster (mp3)
so it’s been hell of busy … there’s been gearing up for the biggest thing bff have ever done, working 12 hour days in the office to roll-out something quite huge, and now to top it all off trying to find enough spare time to waste […]

One night of worship …
We’re very pleased to finally unwrap what’s been taking a hell of a lot of my time at the moment … best foot forward have teamed up with tropical hotdog and baltika beer to host a double-headed party of unforgettable sights and a heady soundtrack of disco, psyche, cosmic music and balearock.
the event begins at […]
Bite my shiny plastic record collection
air - the vagabond (mp3)
now kev, i am right aren’t i in saying that the general consensus puts ‘10,000 hz legend’ just ahead of ‘talkie walkie’ as air’s biggest joke of a body of work?
despite the disgusting popularity, i don’t think that with the decidedly un-easy listening ‘10,000 hz legend’ nicolas and jean-beno�t ever had […]
Signs of life
life on earth! - life on earth (mp3)
miss me?
i didn’t think so.
and what have i been up to i don’t hear you ask. well, nothing much really other than finally getting around to owning a serge gainsbourg album (beck and nigel godrich: for shame!), listening to the lindstrã¸m & prins thomas album on repeat so […]
You say goodbye, and i say hello
the beach boys - god only knows (mp3)
john denver - leaving on a jetplane (mp3)
thanks to the ubiquitous omnipresent nature of the internet it probably won’t even be noticeable, but in a short while best foot forward will be crafted from across different timezones, continents and even hemispheres. this is due to mark starting a […]
Kanye in his flashing lights
kanye west - flashing lights (feat. dwele) (mp3)
we really try to avoid the obvious big releases here at best foot forward, much prefering to dig through dusty record shops or share under-loved tracks you might have missed first time around. however, as the third kanye west album finally leaks, it would be foolish to skip […]
Possibly the finest reggae mix ever?
ashley beedle - 1998 essential mix (part 1) (mp3)
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 […]
