So what's your favourite mp3 blog? My hands down I'd-have-their-babies-if-it-was-anatomically-possible favourite is www.bumrocks.com There's no chat - just a new song every day or so, with an emphasis on dancefloor rock, synthy new age/balearic excursions, proto-house, disco, dancepunk and various other weirdo disco gems. It ranges from downtempo to upbeat and most of it's from the 70s and 80s, bu

It is six months to the day since my best friend, Alex, died. Last week another good friend died. My partner, J, found his body yesterday.
