Why is everyone I listen to at the moment called Jamie? It's absurd. Favourite Jamie: Lidell. Is this guy getting the recognition he deserves or have I just not been paying attention (more likely)? Favourite track: Burial's version of Wayfaring stranger is strangely addictive. Favourite album: James Blake. Funnily enough I don't listen to it that much. It's almost like a painting in a museum; I admire it but that doesn't mean I always enjoy it. I bet it sounds amazing live though.

In particular there’s Gisle Martens Meyer, a kind of… musical David Lynch? On this compilation he's behind Ugress, Shadow of the beat, Pixxel Tyger and Spokelsekladden. And these are just some of his projects. Highly recommended, as is Ralph Myerz’s album Ralphorama! Most of these are available on Spotify if you want to check them out further. Kjempeflott, as my Norwegian colleagues would say.
