Your eyes are big when they're so close
On my weekly trawl through the racks of Record & Tape Exchange yesterday I spotted a few BPitch Control promos in the 50p section. The Ellen Allien record was well below par by her standards, and the Sylvie Marks & HAL 9000 was nothing special, but I have got totally hooked on this track by Paul Kalkbrenner.
The 'Right Here, Right Now' vocal might remind you of Fatboy Slim, but instead of rudely demanding that you dance like Norman, this asks you so nicely that you can't refuse. I'm finding the subtle Kompakt-style groove irresistible & It's been glued to my turntable for 24 hours now.
The man clearly has good taste in vintage Adidas as well.. so deserves your respect.

One out of three wouldn't have been bad for the 50p'ers.. but they also had a really rare twelve in there by Arpanet (AKA Dopplereffekt), so I was well pleased. (And that's without counting their usual quality bargains - Clor & Arcade Fire CDs for a fiver each; The 'Electronic Warfare' double pack by Underground Resistance (well rare); a Clatterbox CD on Clear Records, Audio Bullys mixes of The Prodigy... and a few things that'll probably get ripped & sold on ebay).
I also got some cracking new stuff from Rough Trade - so you may be in for some treats this week (If I get round to ripping the vinyl).
