The ten tracks I can’t get enough of this month…
1. The Heritage Orchestra – Sky Breaks (Brownswood) – Wonderful orchestral jazz, full of hope.

2. Figurines – Silver Ponds (Ben Watt mix) (Strange Feeling) – This track just builds and builds to a real feel-good crescendo.
3. 4 hero – Give In (Raw Canvas) – Exceedingly warm. It’s got soul.
4. Jimpster – Square Up (Buzzin’ Fly) – Deep textured house music at its very best.
5. Nathan Fake – The Sky Was Pink (Icelandic Version) (Border Community) – Awsome, stirring electronica soundscape. Almost makes me cry on every listen! Techno heads should check the more than adequate Holden remix too.
6. Mike Monday – I Dream of Ducks (12 Inch Version) (Playtime) – Bounce to this.
7. Sufjan Stevens – Detroit, Lift Up Your Weary Head! (Rebuild! Restore! Reconsider!) (Rough Trade) – Worth a place in this chart for the title alone. I’m really into Sufjan. Hard to pick a stand-out track but Michigan is the last album I bought so the one I’m listening to most and this is one of my favourites off the album.
8. Francois DuBois – I Try (Urbantorque) – Deep house innit. A nice grooving remix from Nic Fanciulli too.
9. Tracey Thorn – It’s All True (Martin Buttrich mix) (Virgin) – First solo effort for yonks from Everything But The Girl’s Tracey Thorn. A voice that could cut through ice.
10. The Gossip – Listen Up (Back Yard) – Raw energy, and you just can never get enough cowbell!
