So here's some of our musical highlights for November 2008

Ink - misfemme - http://www.myspace.com/misfemme
We met Misfemme at our gig in Derby a few weeks ago and struck up a mutual appreciation of each other's music. "I love these huge bass synths - they snarl like angry rottweilers!" nick

Kids (soulwax mix) - MGMT - www.soulwax.com
We're all pretty big fans of soulwax and MGMT so together it's a brilliant combination. "Probably my favorite dance-floor tune of the autumn so far"

Lovesick - Friendly Fires - www.myspace.com/friendlyfires
"a real dancable tune! The chorus really gets me going. This is the tune that I was listening to on the tour before our Derby gig! ... It must have worked cause I ended up climbing up the speaker stacks!.... If Jacko, stevie wonder, duran duran, william orbit and Paulo mojo all sat down to write a tune... this is what would happen!"Mark

Like you mean it(live) - Medallist - www.myspace.com/medallist (obviously)
For this tour we've added some segues to make our set more like a dj mixing songs together and keeping people dancing. "Successfully negotiating 'Like you mean it' into The Pussycat Dolls into 'ON_OFF' for the first time was one of my tour highlights so far" will. This if from the live ep version.

Any Kind of Pulse - Camp America - www.myspace.com/campamerica
We've known Camp America for years so it was great to finally get to do a gig together recently. This track features Joel Pott from athlete. Also keep an Eye out for a Camp America remix of one of our tunes next year!

The bears are coming - Late of the Pier - www.myspace.com/lateofthepier
"These guys are really interesting are are definitely my favourite Indielecroprog group of 2008! i love the squizzely synth hook!"nick

Fifi go lucky - Misfemme - Another slab of fat bass n beats from Misfemme.
