I’m fully aware it’s a new year, but I’m just not done with 2007; picked up some cool stuff whilst on xmas hols, like The Field’s laidback techno album From here we go sublime and Norwegian DiskJokke’s Staying in.

either way, i’ve just found my cure. thank you d. strauss. tying [...]
Let’s see if this works.. This one should play for 48 mins and 52 secs and if it doesn’t there’s still something dodgy going on.. It’s a bit of this and a bit of that and in particular there’s Lo Fi Fnk and Promise & the Monster.
Tracks:
Steppin out – Lo Fi Fnk
