This physical distancing is a great chance to dig through & rediscover physical media I& #39;d neglected. At some point during this I might even finish the three colours trilogy that had been sitting forlornly in its dvd case since a small person arrived
I didn& #39;t even realise we had this
Today& #39;s breakfast music
DJ Food definitely a hit with the baby. Had her bopping around and wearing weetabix.
Danger Mouse & Jemini this morning. Still brilliant fun 17 years on.
The soundtrack to today& #39;s lockdown baby breakfast is Mañana, a glitchy warm haze of Catalonian influences from Savath & Savalas
Our breakfast soundtrack for the first full weekend of house arrest is Haiku Salut ("instrumental dream -pop-post-folk-neo-everything"). Their lamp shows are gorgeous, and well worth catching when this phase is over.
Now up:
The stupidity of Gove& #39;s 30 minutes means it& #39;s time for something a tad more dystopian & bleak than Blondie
Before we sing along to Johnny and the Raindrops we colour in to Purple Mountains
(but only once all the crayons have been taste tested first)

Wednesday be like
Well, the baby seemed to enjoy African Night Flight, but not fussed with Move On and didn& #39;t stick around for side 2.
Starting the day with this #RecordStoreDay purchase from @spillersrecords in 2013 back when I resided in the & #39;diff. Still an immense album. Takes me straight back to a summer of living in a tent & digging holes in the lake district in the early 2000s
Things I remember from that lake district summer: discman batteries dying and hoping the train would pause at a station long enough to run and buy a new set from the platform Smith& #39;s.
My other musical memory from summer camping is hearing guests at the nearby hotel bar blasting out DJ Ötzi night after night. On our last evening we went to the bar &, on our exit, loaded up a bunch of songs on the jukebox. All of them Radiohead& #39;s Pyramid Song.

Something a little elegiac & expansive for this Sunday breakfast
Followed with some USA Nails to blast away the cobwebs
