Old Indie Kid's Mixtape May 2016
Some very exciting tunes this month and I thought it was going to be a quiet one!
1) Let's Go Crazy by Radio Riddler featuring Suggs taken from the reggae tribute album you never knew you needed "Purple Reggae". R.I.P. Prince
2) Another Dub In The Sun by Jagwa Ma. The B Side to their new single Another Day In The Sun. As good as finding a lost track from Screamadelica.
3) Poem by She Drew The Gun. Social commentary from this top new band from Liverpool.
4) Spirits by The Strumbellas. A Canadian band with an infectious hit.
5) Wild Roses by Bill Ryder-Jones. Back to Liverpool for a solo effort from the former lead guitarist of The Coral.
6) In Miracle Land by The Vines. A bit too Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds?
7) Go Up by Cassius. Return of the French electronica duo who were big in the late '90s.
8) Ghetto People by Chronixx. I can't get enough Chronixx at the moment.
9) Space Oddity by The Flaming Lips. A deep space Bowie cover.
10) Teenage Crime by Rod Ladgrove. Another cover this time with acoustic guitar.
11) Dracula Teeth by The Last Shadow Puppets. Time to get orchestral on your ass!
