It's Friday . . . Let's Dance



Apparently this is my 1500 post, according to Blogger and how apt that such a momentous occasion should fall on the day of the series that refuses to give up the ghost and vacate the building.

I was thinking that to mark such a milestone I should post my favourite dance tune in the world ever, however I have posted Rez once or twice before. So instead, here is something quite recent  from The xx, remixed by the Balearic remixer of choice,  John Talabot once again. Fans of the Streets may recognise the sample. This was another record by The xx which was pressed in a ridiculously small run off, although double the previous Talabot remix and not only available from Japan.

If this tune makes you feel a bit blissed out check out Duke Dumont's remix of Falling by Haim, future summer fave, if we ever get a fucking summer up here. It reminds me of an old tune called Energy Rush by Suburban Delay for some reason.

I was feeling quite summery this week, after two days in Luton, the sun being out making it bearable but on the decent into Glasgow last night it was back to cold, wet and windy which it still is today.

Have a good weekend people.

And yes, we have had this picture before.

Congrats Drew.
Hope the series will NEVER give up the ghost. It's a lovely day out here, sunny and warm, but not too much, after what felt like the longest winter ever.
May the Weather Gods be good to you this weekend.

Blissfully lovely evening here in SW London, the cherry trees in bloom and rosados chilling. Bring on the BHW.

And yes, I recall that picture.
Reminds me of a blow up doll I had in 1982. (The '3 Hole Deluxe' I think it was).

I know ... I'm going.
