In the gossamer-voiced weepy girlpop stakes, I would highly highly recommend the Emma Louise album Vs Head Vs Heart which I don't think has had an international release yet - if not I will happily upload it.

Don't disagree with that, it is quite wet not top 10 material though, I retract that after a couple more spins today. The Emma Louise album is on my list and out now but no avialable on We7 or Spotify to play yet.

Enjoyed the Jagwar Ma record today.

this as well.

Hah, my singles list would include Jessie Ware, Oliver, Haim, etc. if that helps. And I've only listened to Daft Punk and Bowie once each and haven't really formed much of an opinion on either, if that's what you have in mind.

track 1 from the FIFA 13 soundtrack is cool, is it interesting all the way through?

If you like to listen to some Austrailian's who think they are in the Haçienda then yes. YMMV

Love this album. Can't wait for it to blow up this summer (or has that already happened).

Glad Har Mar is still out there doing his thing. Will probably never listen to him again but it's comforting.

I'm boring this year.  Haven't really listened to much music.

Every time I see a top ten list with two or more DJs in it, I get douchebumps. Old age is challenging.

Where'd you get this? I'm assuming Mediafire but no I'm not judging you for "stealing" or anything like that.

Terre's refusal to release anything in digital form (unless it's out there and I can't find it, and I've really taken the time to look) and the unbelievable prices on his CDs (I really do want to "support" the artist but like $25-$30 per CD is some :shock:shit that I can barely comprehend) makes actually buying any of his music a very impractical investment.

I'm trying to see where he's coming from (sorry for the gendered language) but I don't see how this is supposed to work for anyone.

Anyone who expects his fanbase to pay $25+ for a compact disc in 2013 is begging to be pirated.

I Googled for it, yeah.

Just searched "sprinkles dancefloors filestube" and this came up:

Undo, that is one of the best posts I've ever read.  On many levels.  Thank you.

CD was £12 over here.
