• Aloe Blacc – I Need A Dollar (William Breakspear’s ‘Quids In’ Remix) The Hype Machine Listen on the Hype Machine 12 May 2012

  • Just another reason to love Liverpool.

  • I’ve been meaning to write this for a month now, but first I was busy, and then I’ve been too lazy to do anything. Any regular reader (if such a person exists) will know that Miike Snow are one of my favourite bands, and their new album Happy to You was released last month. This post is a lazy review – in that, I’m literally going to go through every track and review them one by one. I’m taking this lazy approach because, after a huge recent project at university, I can’t be doing structured writing! Read on, won’t you?

  • If you haven’t noticed, the springfield connection has recently redesigned. Last time we redesigned, coming up to three years ago, I wrote a post on here about why I did it and explaining the process and thinking that went behind it, so I thought I’d do a similar thing here. Hopefully you might find it quite interesting.

  • Watched a brilliant film last night, called Boy A. It’s a few years old, but one of my friends suggested it a while ago and I’ve only just got round to watching it. It tells the story of a child killer being released back into society, with a new identity.

    The power of the film is its simplicity. Andrew Garfield does a fantastic job of portraying a man troubled by his own past, appreciating the simple things in life for the first time. The story is really interesting, revealing in flashbacks what happened earlier in his life, and you feel real sympathy with somebody trying to wipe his slate clean. Really thought provoking, and one of the best films I’ve watched recently.

  • I wanted to write something about this yesterday when it exploded, but I didn’t have the time. If you haven’t seen the Kony 2012 video yet, watch it and share it. I know that there are some people saying that the charity is a bit dodgy, but I think it’s grown beyond that and is very much about raising awareness. A very intriguing experiment, and an example of the sheer power of social media.

  • Today’s been a good day. Six years without a trophy, but today Liverpool did it the hard way and were rewarded with the League Cup. Sure it’s not the most glamorous cup, but success breeds success and hopefully it will be the first of many.

  • The Knocks Ft. Mandy Lee – Midnight City feat. Mandy Lee (M83 Cover) The Hype Machine Listen on the Hype Machine 8 February 2012

  • So, it’s been a little while since I have had anything worthwhile to write about, or more importantly the time to write it. But, all of my work is handed in and I’ve got a little bit of free time now before my lectures restart. And hey, look what I got for Christmas! Fair to say it is a little bit amazing. Read on for more.
