Real Lies* – Deeper | (NAT)

I don’t know too much about London band Real Lies having only discovered them pretty recently. I like their cool, composed sounds. It reminds me a little of a modern take on the Pet Shop Boys.

Wilkinson* – Afterglow | (NAT)

South London DJ Wilkinson was another artist who I discovered via The Guardian’s Music Blog. It is proving to be rather fertile ground for me of late.

I really enjoyed the energy of this track and the fact that it is easier on the ear than some drum and bass. Also there is a sense of urgency in the vocals that compliments the beat rather well. Finally, I thought the video was quite clever. All in all, an interesting mix.
