The Brits are taking place tonight (or probably right now – damn time difference), so I just thought I’d remind you of who’s in the running and what’s what.
First up, we have the performances. There’s been talk that Lady Gaga will be bounced to later in the broadcast because producers became irritated with her [...]

Here’s an unexpected remix. Indie noisesmiths The Big Pink have taken on the Princess of Filthy Pop, Lily Allen. They turn her shiny electro lament about ageism/sexism into a dirty raver. I had no idea the lads had this in them, but perhaps I should have. At any rate, it’s a very effective remix, and [...]

I don’t want to overdose on Lily Allen, but I thought quite a few of you would likely be interested in this. EMI is offering up a ‘megamix’ version of her new album, It’s Not Me, It’s You. It’s roughly 7 minutes long and features 6 of the album’s 12 tracks. You can download it [...]
