Polish nobleman in 1325: I’ll go to the greatest lengths so that my oldest son would get the education abroad, write letters on behalf of the local bishop, and be my pride

This Australian electronic duo with 60 subs on YouTube is one of my greatest music finds of the last couple of years. Great drum patterns with atmospheric basslines, cute samples and features. They have just released an EP, and it's well worth checking out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKnm...

London's giant AI artwork to be torn down
The bizarre story of why a much-talked-about creation is being torn down. Plus: Docklands Light Railway extension, giant laser stalks the night sky, and more tales of Android phone theft rejection.
