SHABAZZ PALACES… signed to Sub Pop this year. Looking forward to hearing new music.

20 Leaves… by Shabazz Palaces

Forest Swords… check out the mix available on the new website.

Mad Men… best thing on TV by a mile.

Here’s a good article by Adam Curtis about Mad Men and that early 60s era of advertising – Madison Avenue.

PJ Harvey on ‘The Andrew Marr Show’… I love it that the Prime Minister is watching her, and she’s dressed like a raven, singing over a loop of ‘Istanbul not Constantinople’… looking forward to the new stuff.

It’s a thing made by me called ‘SHADOWS’…

It’s dedicated to SHADOW MORTON… and HERE IT IS.

BLACK LANTERN MUSIC is doing some good work too… check it.

Also enjoyed ‘Shutter Island’, ‘A Prophet’, Barney Hoskyn’s Tom Waits book, ‘Nightmare Alley’, ‘The Archandroid’, The Sexual Objects, ‘Christmas Is Cold’ and a load of other things I can’t remember… Happy 2011.
