Mix #19

Old: The Pharcyde, Beat Happening (we just reissued their catalogue), Beefheart, some banging Yellow Magic Orchestra, Sonic Youth, Bauhaus, Pavement (Malkmus played this one at his recent Moth Club), ABBA (always and forever) and Tricky. 

New: Pozi, couple of Blood Orange bits, Caroline Polachek (the video is the best thing), TNGHT came back, Tierra Whack, Caribou, Sudan Archives, Buscabulla (a new signing to us, v good), Lankum, Bombay Bicycle Club, Helado Negro, Nick Cave (looking forward to the shows next year), Disq (this song is so great), Dry Cleaning, Joanna Sternberg and Yves Tumor. Plus big up Barry.

New to me: Roberto Cacciapaglia, Mike Edge, U.N.P.O.C. (very Pixies), Michael Orr (reissued this year) and Julie Covington. 

We finish with one of the biggest singles of the year "Sunglasses" by one of the best new bands: Black Country, New Road.

Other things that have been happening apart from losing an election. I visited Charleston House (the former home of Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant of The Bloomsbury Group), went to the Gormley exhibition at The Royal Academy and took a day trip to Liverpool for the Keith Haring one. Explored Dorset and Shropshire. Saw Rosalia for the second time, saw Lizzo for the second time (but the first time since "Juice"), went to see Death of a Salesman starring Wendell Pierce. Watched the new Ken Loach and Parasite. And most excitingly perhaps, went to Lewes for their annual fireworks - was as good as I thought it would be!
