What I’m listening to this week - Top-2
May 13, 2008

SOMETHING old and SOMETHING new.

Prefab Sprout - When Love Breaks Down

A band that never received the recognition or the success that they deserved. This song, from the Thomas Dolby-produced Steve McQueen, (released in America as Two Wheels Good), is excellent and one of my all-time faves. The album was remastered and released in a 2 CD package last year. If you see it, buy it!

The Presets - This Boy's in Love

Really, really like the new Presets release Apocalypso. This is the single and it has a very New Order-ish sound. I could easily get away with playing this one at NWC and no one would realize that it was a new song. DJ Omar turned me on to this one back in March when we DJ'ed the Gilbert & George event at the de Young. Excited about seeing the Presets next week at Mezzanine. I'll be giving away tickets for that show at SOMETHING on Friday.

You'll definitely hear these two songs along with the best Indie, New Wave, & Electro dance music and more this Friday night with guest DJ Danny White.

2 rooms, 2 parties, and 2 X the fun for only $5. Hope to see you all at The Cat Club!
