Teeth – Flowers (Gross Magic Remix)
The zany London 3some that is TEETH (or T3ETH) is playing Nation of Shopkeepers in Leeds again on the 5th of October. The last time they were there was for the VICE launch, so, for those who missed that, here’s your chance to catch these guys live. The album, Whatever was released just last week...
Washed Out – You’ll See (Midland Edit)
Nearly got knocked off my fucking bike because some fucking road maniac couldn’t have his way. Anyway. We are back. It’s been hectic this past couple of weeks, I don’t really wanna to go into too much detail, but it involves a lot of offline fun, mainly organizing clubnights, supporting DIY shows (there’s loads recently...
In Photos: MIDNIGHT JUGGERNAUTS, 9th Nov @ Nation of Shopkeepers, Leeds
The experience of seeing Midnight Juggernauts last Tuesday at my local, to me, is akin to seeing LCD Soundsystem at Tesco – the event was advertised as an intimate gig, fair enough, but I cannot help feeling that they are better suited in a bigger venue, like the Roundhouse in Camden or something. That said,...
Is Tropical
Just in time for this one: London’s masked trio, Is Tropical is heading back up north again tomorrow at Nation of Shopkeepers in Leeds and what better day to announce their debut single than now. South Pacific will be released via Kitsune come November 22nd and comes ready with remixed versions and all that. To...
Crystal Fighters vs D/R/U/G/S
Yes baby. More D/R/U/G/S please. First broke their story on this blog 3 months ago. Looks like they’ve done another sweet remix. Stopping just short of 6mins, they’ve totally epic-ised Crystal Fighter‘s new single Follow. It’s dance but its kinda not: bright trance synths, booming drumkick, chopped up vox looping, detached at first and then...
The Horn The Hunt
The good thing about going to see good gigs is that you get to see good bands and you get educated. The Horn The Hunt is the result of such an education.

British Wildlife Festival, Nationof Shopkeepers, Leeds, 28/03/10
Pictures for British Wildlife Festival at Leeds’ Nation of Shopkeepers are up! Yeah it was quite a messy night. Ultimate Thrush destroyed the stage yet again, but this timeround, it was really Divorce that took control of the whole the show. Christ, this was probably the best set they’ve ever played (and I’ve seen them...
Kitsune Party, Nation Of Shopkeepers, Leeds, 23/10/09
Last night I went to the Kitsune party at Nation of Shopkeepers. Delphic and Two Door Cinema Club were on the bill – it looked like it was going to be a night of epic proportions – ish. For one, I made the mistake of coming late, missed Two Door Cinema Club and had to...

Joe And Will Ask on Friday night at Nation of Shopkeepers and then a barbeque party in an old victorian graveyard on Saturday.Can I just say that Joe & Will Ask? were fucking phenomenal. Props to Kill The Rhythm for putting on a good show. Just kinda resent the...

Friday night was fucking amazing, rounded up a couple of friends to Nation of Shopkeepers and got absolutely mashed. Heads Up...
