My Spotify release radar playlist is chock full of shite dance that’s using other more famous artists names. Unless Johnny Marr has drastically changed musical direction and started rapping in Russian.
They must be a way to stop people doing this.
In other Spotify news… The KLF have started streaming their back catalogue!

Bit of a blast from the past… It would seem there’s a new Ben Kweller album:
28 minutes long according to Spotify, not bad for (checks watch) eight years of work.

That Hotel Neon album is really nice. Doesn’t do anything new but hits that level of ambiance I like (like the last Hammock album).
