Verve’s early eps and debut album gave me the same thrills and excitement that Ride’s had a few years earlier. It didn’t last but around 93/94 they were one of my fave bands.

Kiasmos - Kiasmos (2014)
Not really up on my electronic sub genres but seen this described as ‘orchestral techno’ which fits pretty well. It’s a beautiful and hypnotic debut though from the Icelandic duo.

What a fantastic game of cricket. A record run chase by India to overhaul reigning world champs Australia in the WC semi final. So much emotion at the end, really showed how much it meant…loved it 🙌🙌

A trip down indie memory lane back to 89/90. Live Birdland were a blast, 20-30 mins of chaotic high octane pop punk inevitably ending with a smashed up set. Not all their records captured that raw energy but Hollow Heart ep and the live freebie album sure do…fun memories 🙂
