“Yeah, the crusades, sorry about that, bit of an oversight, I do apologise”

Tracked it down here…http://www.myspace.com/centralmassive (see an earlier post for context). The song is Brother Don’t Cry and its flipping gorgeous.

So it turns out I can’t spell, and one of my favouite new artists is called ‘Floating Points’ not ‘Floating Point’. Anyway. A couple of things of his that have got me really excited are here and here . Deep as…

Pete Tong’s Essential New Tune last Friday was Alan Fitzpatrick’s Reflections, and I’ve been repeatedly listening to it ever since:

Mercifully, Floating Point Ensemble have put up clips of their session on Gilles Peterson Worldwide on their myspace. Go listen.

This is simply incredible. A bunch of Chetham & Guildhall graduates in BBC’s Maida Vale studios. http://bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/b00m46zz, 33mins on. Amazing. Go there. Now.

Gilles Peterson this week played a track from the new Zero 7 album. I think those of us hoping for a return to their wonderous first album will once again be disappointed. Gutted.

So I seem to have a thing about stuff on white label/otherwise untrackdownable stuff. If you listen to this programme http://bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/b00m4247 from about 52.30 onwards you’re in for a good time: Red Eye et al., Brother Don’t Cry. All I can find is some LA producer banging out the sort of ‘house’-based tripe that only LA producers can put out…
