Because Association

Hello!

I have a new blog, started with a few other people, possibly more interesting than myself.

Head over to www.becauseassociation.com.

Why? Just because.

Music, video games, films, and all night disco parties!

Radio silence

I am so bad at this. Delay after delay.

I have decided making lists of my favourite albums of the 2000s would end up being an unorganised mess, with only a few differences to many other critics' choices. Good records are recognised as such, usually by a majority. What is the worth in me posting that my favourite album of the decade was Arcade Fire's "Funeral" when it has been said a million times before?

A couple of artists whose output was criminally underrated in the last ten years would have to be Junior Senior and Mansun. These bands commanded a huge chunk of my listening time during school and university, and I can still put on any of their albums and enjoy their work from start to finish.

In the next few posts I am going to compile mixtapes for you to download, mainly of cool tracks I have found in the week. That should give me something worth posting, and ultimately worth reading this crappy blog for.

Good feelings.

Discovering something awesome really does make the day worth waking up for. This War track is from their 1979 album The Music Band, and it has everything required to be a funk classic.

And THIS!:

Definite classic. Dancefloor dynamite. Enjoy.

R.I.P. Teddy Pendergrass

Sad times. Another great has passed.

2010 - The Year Of The Future!

Happy new year/decade! And happy new dancing female body builders!

Good Shoes are pretty damn good. Enjoy.

And when I get round to it, I will post up my "best albums of the 2000s". Should be a few different choices to the usual opinion-peddlers.
