I keep meaning to ask you how was the Squarepusher gig!

I've just been listening to Death in Vegas on the Lost in Translation soundtrack, I love the music selection in that film. It's as good as a stand alone album even without the film, but it suits the lazy rainy day sort of feeling the film gives off.

I'm listening to Slowdive - When the sun hits or I was, the cats have just crawled behind the CD player and muddled with the wires so it's jumping between speakers, little tinkers, anything for attention!

Wouldn't say there was a massive difference but there is definitely a difference. "Junky" refers specifically to being addicted to opiates whereas "addict" is more your "whatever gets ya through the night, all night, every night variety bucket o' drugs" kinda thing. Other than that, it's just that "junky" is seen as a pejorative term and "addict" seems more socially acceptable really. Interchangeable in my book. Less so in others' book.

When I said there was a difference I meant in terms of behavior. To me the word junkie describes the person as well as the addiction, junkies are more likely to have less morals, ie steal from their mother, commit violent crime etc just to get a hit. An addict describes well, what it says on the tin, someone who is addicted to a drug with no behavioral description attached to the word. In my opinion some addicts can become Junkies if they let the drug consume them enough.

Funnily enough, there's even been a BL discussion before about the difference between the two. I found that when I was looking for the dictionary definition of Junkie.

They're at Bestival this year. Been ages since I last saw them live so I'm quite looking forward to it. Did they have any of the artists they've collaborated with in their tracks on stage with them?

I assumed from the name that they were some kind of ghastly seppo independent, all tuneless instrumentals with muttering dickheads over the top. I think I read quite a lot into the name!

The name is shockingly bad, as is his collection of masks. Ever since SBTRKT it seems like the new in thing is to don the most retarded headgear you can think of.

Unfortunately not, they left the collab stuff out. Dirge didn't have the la la la's :(

Hands around my throat was still awesome though, and the new tracks are belters.
 
Cherry, Squarepusher was absolutely amazing :D check out vids of the lightshopw on youtube, epic.. and the music was just perfect. Man's a genius!

Chilling on a rainy evening listening to my new Death in Vegas album now, love it: Death in Vegas - Black Hole
 
Fuck it, here's a whole album that I can't stop listening to after rediscovering:

Neil Young - Chrome Dreams

Never got released, for some unknown reason. Certain songs got tacked on to later LPs but this is quite possibly the Neil Young album. He sounds like the most wounded, fragile, tortured yet still-not-cynical creature on earth. With great tunes.

Perfect for sitting and chilling to.
