SAMUEL & THE DRAGON // DIAMONDS ON A BOAT // MOSHI MOSHI


Gonna take it down a notch this Wednesday. The onset of autumn has made us feel quite emotional or could it be the hangover from the rousing, blast from the past performance from our all time classic alt indie favs, The Pixies, at the Brixton Academy last night. Frank, Kim et al blitzed through the Doolittle track list like it was 1989 albeit a little chubbier around the sides. Can't believe it's 20 years since the band's sophomore release. Feel old now. They rounded off the night with the UK Surf version of Wave of Mutilation. Pretty emotional stuff.

New Moshi Moshi signings, Samuel & The Dragon know a thing or two about emotions, with their new single, 'Diamonds On A Boat'. A laid back, stripped down electronic excursion on urban isolation and melancholy. It's deep shit. Makes you just wanna kick back, light up, burn & chill. Sweet stuff.
