Lives Of Our Days

As you can see, tonight I was rocking the SoundCloud shirt that the good folks at my favourite music streaming startup gave me when I visited Berlin last year.

Given that it was through SoundCloud that I first heard (and got excited!) about Mark Rae’s gig at The Manor, I guess this was my little way of saying “thanks”… So you can imagine how pleased I was when someone I’ve never met came up towards the end of the gig, asked where I got the shirt, and told me how much she loved SoundCloud :)

When huge, global digital communities spontaneously go personal, local and analog,  you know you have built something special. Thanks SoundCloud!

PS: And for the record, the gig was awesome!

How is this for a tracklist (in no particular order)… Chaka Khan’s classic “Ain’t Nobody”, “Love Come Down” by Evelyn ‘Champagne’ King, Chic’s “I Want Your Love”, Kurtis Blow and “The Breaks”, “I Follow Rivers” by Lykke Li, Mr Scruff’s “Get A Move On”, this awesome Daft Punk bootleg, “It Takes Two”, “The Bomb”, “Superstition”, “Dreadlock Holiday” (we don’t like cricket, we love it!), Fred Wesley’s “House Party” and *ahem* “Jolene” by Dolly Parton.
