And a happy Friday to you!
Rocking the hotpress.com stereo at the moment is ‘The Fall Of Rome’, a sneak preview of the upcoming album by The Bottletop Band.
“Who?” we hear you cry in unison. They’re an all-star outfit featuring the likes of Super Furry Animal Gruff Rhys, Arctic Monkey Matt Helders, Charlatan Tim Burgess, Carl Barat, Get Cape Wear Cape Fly, Money Mark, VV Brown, Sam Sparro, Reverend & The Makers and Eliza Doolittle.
Also below for your listening pleasure are four new remixes from The Drums whose recent Academy show is definitely in the HP Gig of the Year running.
Finally, cop yourselves an earful of Jamie xx's makeover of Gil Scott-Heron's 'NY Is Killing Me', the first taster from the We're New Here remix album which follows in February.
