The Beast From The East has gone, thank goodness. Spring is in the air, starting with spiky stuff from Cancshaker Pi, and L.A. Witch. I'm looking forward to the new Whyte Horses album, and the Colemine track continues their soulful theme here, before Flight Facilities move things danceward. Q and Peggy Gou keep things going before a funky transition (courtesy of Nu Guinea, with shades of Talking Heads to the bass line, at least) to this week's closer, where the relaxing sounds of Deryn Cullen make a welcome return. Track of the week? Flight Facilities just edges Whyte Horses, for the moment, at least!

L.A. Witch - Drive Your Car

royal blue ocean dunes
and she’s riding in the space between the clouds

see how cool she can wear
the divide between her confidence and doubt

she seems so familiar
but i barely know her
i'm in love but insecure

i think i want
i want you to come on
take me down to the shore
and show me how you ride the stars

edges cut like a knife
there’s a clarity below, and up above

see how smooth she can glide
on the surface cause the stillness is enough

she seems so familiar
but i barely know her
i'm in love but insecure

i think i want
i want you to come on
take me down to the shore
and show me how you ride the stars 
i wanna know
everything you know
take me down to the shore
and show me how you ride the stars

let’s take a walk down in asbury park
drink cheap champagne under the stars
leave the lights of the city behind us

i think i want
i want you to come on
take me down to the shore
and show me how you ride the stars 
i wanna know
everything you know
take me down to the shore
and show me how you ride the stars

The legendary ‘Voice of Q’ by Q is getting a much-deserved reissue via Isle Of Jura. On the B-side lies the previously unreleased track, ‘Keep it Strong.’ With dreamy piano stabs, a heavy dose of dubby mastering and a funk-laden housey bassline, this track feels brand new, making it our sure-fire pick for this week’s premiere. We also caught up for a quick chat with Michael Forte of Q for a rare interview. Check it on Off The Record...

Nu Guinea - Ddoje Facce (STW Premiere)

Long-time (3+ years!) curator of a regular weekly 10 track playlist of legit, (mostly) new tracks from Soundcloud, dug up here, there and everywhere. The lists always start out as 10 tracks, but some subsequently get pulled from Soundcloud by the band/artist or the label, so don't blame me for any short lists!
