Koopa – "Blag, Steal & Borrow"
This week’s official Top 40 is a chart we’ve waited a long
time to see. With a simple rule change (no physical release required) the
‘proper’ chart is fair game for anyone as Colchester’s
unsigned heroes Koopa have proved with their very own Top 40 hit. Boys, we
salute you. The floodgates are open, let
the hits commence.
David Sneddon – "White Noise"
The real shame is that David Sneddon will forever be
labelled as that bloke who won ‘Fame Academy’. A shame because
he’s a considerable talent who deserves a fairer hearing. With his rich Scots
burr much in evidence, this is that fair hearing. Listen up.
Infantjoy – "Leaving Somewhere With Someone"
This really is a bit of a treat – two utterly exclusive down
tempo offerings from the killer combination of Paul Morley and James Banbury
[sound of googling]. Don’t let words like arty and Erik Satie [sound of more
googling] put you off – you’ll be sorry if they did.
