I might just replace you with a match stick and gasoline

Just a quick one as I have plenty of media law to be reading about. If you havn't heard of this guy, Andy Hull, or either of the two of his projects - Right Away, Great Captain! (his solo project) or Manchester Orchestra (his band) - then you shouldn't really ever be allowed to listen to music.

He is a hero. RAGC is melodic, pained, angst, folk poetry, whereas Manchester Orchestra takes his unbelievable talent for writing meaningful, powerful lyrics and support it all with an entire band behind it.

I've just got hold of the second RAGC album, 'The Eventually Home' and it is no disappointment. I could never do the four albums linked to this man justice in one quick post, so i'll just post a quick track and hopefully tease you in.

Right Away, Great Captain! - Right Ahead, You Sailor!

Don't be afraid of the nautical terminology; it's all just part of setting the scene.

It's not worth apologising for being away every time I post because I post so infrequently. My journalism course is almost in full flow and this blog may become the vehicle by which I blog about my training and general advance towards journalistic professionalism...or something.

In the meantime, here's my latest (and only) mix. It starts off with some rather large techno, moves through tech-house and the new sub-genre of 'midget', then into some lovely blunt electro. It will blow you away.
