(although she doesn't get a song on this one which is a shame) That's a real pity - love her voice solo!

PS4 / Xbox One
So, it seems it's Sony's turn to drop some bombshells this week. It seems the PS4 will not be able to play MP3's, audio CD's, connect external hard drives and or offer any DLNA support. When you consider how most people use the…

Missing Persons
Back now and catching up! Went from 4G phone and 60mb fibre at home to G signal & 4mb dialup on an 11 year old Vista PC in Shropshire seeing the family. Could barely tweet, never mind get on here!

Latest Purchase....
A copy of the Human cd single signed inside by Alison & Davide and on the back by Angie. Not normally so bothered to grab a cd again just for a signature but all three being on it makes it quite nice. {yes, I'm easily pleased}

I'm haunting my own ears with some Demdike Stare at silly volume. You know how a building can have a ghost? Now imagine what it would be like if a tune had a ghost....which was also a tune. That's what their stuff sounds like.

Goldfrapp in unexpected places..........
Mean to pop by and post at the time - they were also on the One Show with a bit more TOU instrumental action as backing to a piece about something vaguely nature related. Between there, gardening shows and the semi-regular C(o)untryfile usage some…

What Are You Eating?
It's a bizarre world where you can buy a fairly tasty Carribbean jerk chicken & pineapple salad....from Boots. What next? The nearby takeaway starts selling sun tan lotion and perfume?

A snarling/growling cat? That's a very scary proposition. Do you also chase a ball and fetch sticks?

Scott 4 by Brian Brody
Ah, so they might just be pinching bits from 30 Century Man then? I went to the cinema to see that then was pleased to find out afterwards that the version shown there and the version on dvd & blu-ray actually both have unique footage in so you …

What are you listening to now?
Mutability by Holger Czukay (from Flux and Mutability, by David Sylvian and Holger Czukay) I'm seldom in the mood for this kind of music during the day, but it just seems very appropriate at the moment. Wow - I don't think anybody I know…

Love Goldfrapp. Love band merch. This, however, not so much.

Albums you want to love.....but just cant.
Ha, we have a heap of tQ readers? Good taste, you see, that's what does it. Yeah, I did notice the album cropping up in a number of "Baker's Dozens" which just annoyed/intrigued me even more. The thing about Church's choice…

Nicely done - seems there are numerous ways to share but not burden at the same time. Excellent stuff.

I think there might well be a way to post a URL to the YouTube clip where it doesn't expand & embed the actual thing. Let me have a play around as I know I've done it by accident before. That would indeed be the ideal answer, tattmeis…

Have just finally caught the whole session for the first time. Phew. I'm sat at work with headphones in and watching it on a pair of monitors and I was still utterly lost in watching it and then utterly affected by the Yellow Halo part. Dear …

I see what you mean, Dreeke, but the thing that makes it awkward is that a lot of the time the Youtube video is how/what people are listening to and it's handy to get a quick way to join them........ .....BUT..........some of the time it may i…

Great stuff, Rob - still at work at the mo but I'll be grabbing that SendFrapp link soon as I'm in the door. Having seen the comments about YH I'm not sure "looking forward to watching" feels quite the right phrasing that I…
