Fine Tune Friday could only get brighter
Hercules & Love Affair, “Blind
download
This song has crept up on me. When I first got this album, it felt a little limp and standard. It was fine, it made me move, it had a decent amount of dance floor variety, but it wasn’t anything that I felt much like coming back to.
But thanks to my Radio playlist, this song kept coming back on, and I enjoyed it more every time it did. I started noticing the raise of intensity, the point of climax with the beat break at “Because I feel blind!”, and it started to feel familiar, like Bronski Beat had reformed. File under “as welcome in the headphones as on the dancefloor.”
Also added to my library this week were a couple of songs from Dave’s muxtape: “At My Heels” by Daedalus and “Ribbons” by Four Tet. Unfortunately, Muxtape seems to have had a little incident, and everyone’s mixes got deleted, but you’ll just have to trust me on this one that you should trust Dave on this one.

A blog and nothing but since 2003. Some tech, lots of music, and if rambling was money, drinks are on me.
