Arctic Monkeys – I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor
The Arctic Monkeys are undoutably the biggest band from England right now. I did went to see them play live here and I was actually more impressed with their opening band, Be Your Own Pet, which are a few underage kids (the youngest being 18 years old). But what they offer is a little showmenship, as they jump and dance around as they sing (I mean, scream) their songs.

The Auteurs – Car Crazy
Anyroad, for our road trip this weekend, I thought I'd leave you with some Luke Haines car songs. Luke Haines has been around forever, I met and interview him during The Auteurs' "Now I'm a Cowboy" tour and have been following his career ever since. He joined in Black Box Recorder, which had some minor success. He's currently a solo artist (I believe he's still doing random gigs in England & Ireland).

DJ Shadow – Stem (Cops ‘N’ Robbers mix)
DJ Shadow (Josh Davis) is a mixer and turntable artist out in Davis, California. Somehow amazingly enough, in 1995, he made this little album called Endtroducing... (released in 1996), which consists of nothing but sampled music (it made it into the Guinness World Records for "First Completely Sampled Album" for their 2001 edition). I'm sure, around this time, there were other experimental sampling artists out there, but DJ Shadow is recognized as the first. There is even a book about it from 33 1/3 Series
