Shorties...

The heat is still unbearable and my brain has yet to recover from Wednesday’s short circuit.

Have you watched the Northern Portrait video I posted earlier today? If not; what exactly are you waiting for?

The great Tap Tap gives away a brilliant new track called Dry Dry Land, which is “all about Portugal”.

New track Where I’m Going by Cut Copy is definitely worth “the price of an email address”.

Although my mother is from Finland, I have never bothered learning more than a few words of the incredibly complicated Finnish language (I can count to ten and do a bit of swearing). If I had, I probably would have known what Finnish trio Regina sings about. Now (like most of you) I have no clue, but their music is pretty good and the album Puutarhatrilogia was released by Friendly Fire Recordings last month.

To be honest I expected it to be awful, but 8mm’s cover version of Bad Moon Rising is surprisingly decent.
