Ordinarily I would post the Club Sussed playlist…but I was having too much fun to remember what I spun. Big shout outs to DJs Carsmile, Crow Atak and Constant Spray, see you on the 19th.
I am going on holiday, meanwhile – sorry about the lack of content here recently. I’m hoping to spring back refreshed and re-loaded – will NYLPM thrive in the meantime? That’s entirely up to my team-mates – last time I took a week off in Greece they responded in fine style with some of the liveliest discussion this page has seen: I’ve got my fingers crossed that something similar might happen again, who knows. Meanwhile Moments In Love is in the capable hands of Maura! K! Johnston! who will write much better things than I have been – she has a team of mystery men contributing stuff too (yesterday’s Dr Dre bit was by Josh for instance).
I was talking to Alex and he mentioned how much he’d liked the list of CDs I’d put up last time I went on holiday. His foolish politeness has cost you all dearly – here are the records I’ll have with me this time.
