We catch up with man of the moment
Darwin Deez, who reveals a love for the British crowds, and a possible collaboration with MGMT.
Groove Armada are well known for re-inventing themselves. It's a key attribute for a production duo that have been going since 1996, and have 8 albums to their name, all without a front man. But this latest album is probably the most pre-conception-busting of them all.

With all the crossover and experimental hype around last year, it was hard to filter out the good from the bad, and the bad from the downright wierd. Acts like the Animal Collective proved you don't need to box your sound to be understood. Yet still, the pigeon holer's still tried their best to define the lo-fi acts emerge last summer as 'chillwave'. Somehow in all the hype, many missed South Carolina's
Toro Y Moi.

It's that time of year again. Freezing cold outside, nothing on TV inside, everywhere is rammed and nowhere's open. But what makes up for all of that is getting together with family, friends and those people we only get to see on special occasions and getting mullered on mulled wine and having a great time.

Mention Barry Island to most, and you'll be met with a barrage of Gaving & Stacey quotes. But what's really occurring in Barry, are stargazing lyrics, neoteric melodies and a familiar and comforting sound.

With the clocks going back last week and the nights drawing in, Dave 1 and P-Thugg's first original track since 2007 can provide the perfect soundtrack.
