A bit of a mash up today – finally got round to listening to the cricket-concept album, The Duckworth Lewis Method and jolly good it is too. Not as annoying as some people might think and further proof that Neil Hannon is one of our finest songwriters and should be made a national treasure The Duckworth Lewis Method – Gentlemen and Players

Also started to listen to The Temper Trap and Passion Pit offerings - both sound very promising although there's a definite Coldplay influence on Temper Trap... which probably means they'll be massive in 6 months time. The Temper Trap – Sweet Disposition Passion Pit – The Reeling

The great thing about Spotify is that you can indulge your guilty pleasures without anyone knowing... that is unless you have a blog listing all the tracks your listening to... ah well - for what it's worth the new Calvin Harris album certainly has it's moments, particularly the brazen use of the world's worst instrument on this track Calvin Harris – The Rain
