Adrift

Missed this little gem a YEAR ago, from an interview with Justin Parker with Dazed. I heard you were working with Charli XCX. Justin Parker: Yeah, I really like her. She’s the only person I’ve actually felt comfortable going out of my comfort zone with. The song I’ve written with her is a big one. The melody could have appeared on a Primal Scream record like ‘Loaded’.

One of those shots looks like it was shot in 2012, that's like straight-up Sad Dream hair, that doesn't just happen.

COURTLY LOVE. An East London-based quintet of Layla and Johnny Lee on lead vocals, and what a lead vocal they possess, Jules on bass, Ben on guitar and synths and Jake on drums, debuted in October but have that kind of class that one would think they're straight out of the 60s or 70s. Their sound is psychedelic blues. They say don't judge a book by its cover, but when I saw the press image above, I just kinda knew they'd be great. My only complaint is I wish Layla's voice was a little easier to hear, she's got an amazing voice. "They were probably born in black and white, wearing perfectly fitting vintage outfits and smoldering at the midwife as they were delivered." They currently have three songs out: Mirage, Voodoo Girl, and On My Mind. "The opening chords of “Mirage” will take you where you need to go, down the back stairs, through a nondescript door and into the kind of bar you only ever see in films."

Charli said she wrote about 20 songs for the album, she's gonna choose the 12 or 13 she likes the most and put it out. In case you're wondering how many songs from the album we're not gonna get.

Yeah, I think I got an FLV too, but I just changed the filetype to mp3 and lo and behold, there was a 320kbps file.

You probably downloaded it from tumblr, where I got it from the site itself?

I was able to rip the 4:40 version in 320?

It's not fake, stop.

I'm no Sky expert, but wasn't this part of a Calvin Klein campaign or something?

boobs r too big

I SO hope this is a good hint at her new sound, I'm diggin' it.

She covered Robert Palmer's song "Simply Irresistible" for E!

I like the concept! It'd also be a great way to remind us of some songs we may have forgotten about and rediscover them, too.

TMH is immaculate. But Superlove is really something else, it's SUCH a good song.

I remember Madz contacted one of the writers of that song, he "hopes it'll get used someday".

And Light It Up isn't even the official title?

I LOVE Kristine and NTMT. Also, My Molly is the JAM. The organ in Omanko annoys me though. :\

This is what I use. It's far from great, but ya know.

We will literally never get it.

I remember it NOW, it was called "Strobe Light".

I remember her saying that song sounds completely different now, if I remember right.

Not a chance.

You're gonna kill me, but I can't remember the title!
