Slowing down just a bit.

HAPPY FRIDAY!

HERE IS FRIDAY 31ST AUGUST TOP 5 ALL THINGS AWESOME.

LET'S GET INTO IT...

1) Track of the week.

Hundred Waters - Full Performance on KEXP.
I first heard of these guys at BUG, Adam Buxton's music video show, and every track is killer.

2) Video of the week.

Ocean Wisdom - Revvin Feat. Dizzee Rascal.
Only just found out about these guys, really good stuff.

3) Quote of the week.

“There could be a direct correlation between smart phone usage and under-informed mass behaviour.

Sometimes it’s worth opening up a laptop and slowing down just a bit.

Yes, opening up a laptop might count as slowing down a bit."

- Seth Godin.

4) Interesting thing of the week.

Ignaz Semmelweis had blood on his hands.

A 30 minute read but thoroughly worth it. The importance of science and figuring things out.

5) Gig of the week.

Red Triangle at The Garibaldi.

Jazzy, hip-hoppy and souly, perfect combo!

Speak to you next Friday,

Josh

I first heard Hundred Waters at an Adam Buxton event, he played their track 'Innocent', but this is a different flavour, still good though.

5) Gig of the week.

Hometown Projects Launch Party.

Hometown Projects is the great idea of Alex Potton (who is also on this week's podcast, see link below). If you love Northampton, you will want to be involved. If you don't love Northampton it's probably because you don't know enough about the cool shit that happens here, this is your chance to find out. See you there.

Speak to you next Friday,

Josh
