My digital column in the Indo’s Day and Night magazine contains lots of juicy music recommendations this week. Links to tracks from Wave Machines, Ellie Goulding, Vega, Burial/Four Tet, Liechtenstein, The Chasms, Tiga’s awesome ‘Shoes’ (check the brilliant video), Fly Girlz, Lissy Trulie and Fred Falke remixes Grizzly Bear’s ‘Two Weeks’, The Golden Filter remix Empire of the Sun, Calvin Harris doing Passion Pit and my favourite – Classixx remixing Phoenix’ ‘Listzomania’.
Videos with cute kids singing Jarvis and Pavement, what My Little Pony would be like if Michael Bay directed it, Goonies re-united and a look at Nick Cave’s bonkers script for Gladiator 2.

Thanks for that. Otherwise I’d be asking random Kildare heads in the crowd for a lift out. Them exams won’t invigilate themselves…
Chances are asking random Kildare heads probably won’t get you far!
Ah ye/they are kind souls!
