Clouds and silver linings.

So, I have just spent an amazing few days in Budapest.. If you haven't been before I cannot recommend it highly enough. And the Szimpla Kert ruin pub is a MUST. One of the best bars I've probably ever been to - how can you not love a bar that has chairs made from old bath tubs and a table in a car?

Anyway, upon my return it was Glasto ticket sales time, but due to an overnight flight I was putting all my faith in my mother and brother to get my tickets ordered for me. They failed. Well, to be fair the website was a big let down. SO GUTTED, the first time I've actually planned properly to go and tickets sell out faster than ever AND now I've just read that Fleetwood Mac are probably gonna be the headline act. OUCH. Excuse me while I lock myself away and cry until , well, forever. (ok, maybe that's a tad dramatic, but only a tad)

I am still holding onto a tiny bit of hope for the April re-sale. PLEASE LET ME GO.

Anyway, while feeling sorry for myself in my no glasto ticket gloom, I've found some nice tracks -

Every cloud and all that....

Ben Khan - Eden

electro, synth, R n' B. Unique.

I loved 'Royals' & here's another impressive release from the young talented Lorde:

Connan Mockasin - I am the man that will find you
https://soundcloud.com/connanmockasin/connan-mockasin-im-the-man
weird, dreary high pitched vocals, a little bit like he's been sucking the helium outta a balloon for too long, but somehow it works. After all, weird is good.
