Human Drizzle

Flippin’ heck, where does the time go? We’re already five days into December and that can only mean one thing – the holidays are coming.

As tradition on these pages at the start of the month, we’ve compiled all our featured music from the last 30 onto one playlist. Consider it the perfect accompaniment to all that online shopping, chestnut cracking, present wrapping, decoration-hanging, cracker-pulling and under-the-mistletoe kissing you’re likely to do over the next few weeks.

There are some corkers in there. From Sam Smith’s new belter, to newbies from Chris Malinchak, Flight Facilities and Todd Terje. More disco from Skream, a mixmag premiere from HD Presents alumnus Mighty Mouse and a stand-out from our new favourite West Country three-piece, Panda.

As usual – let us your know your thoughts. We’re eagerly awaiting your suggestions over on Twitter, come give us a shout.

Now, the music:

And here are our top 5 tracks of the month:

1. CHVRCHES – Lies (Tourist Remix):

2. Panda – Eighty Nine:

3. Second City – I Wanna Feel:

4. Doc Daneeka – Walk On In:

5. Todd Terje – Spiral:

I think we all need a few good tunes right now, don’t we? Lucky there’s a new playlist out, and it’s another good ‘un (humble much?). Sozzers it’s a little delayed, it’s taken us a few days to tie up the loose ends/recover from Human Drizzle Presents. Thanks to all who came down, pictures here.

As ever, we’ve selected our top five of the month and it was the trickiest choice yet, so feast your ears on this lot:

And here are our top 5 tracks of the month:

1. Wayward – Love Jones:

2. Laszlo Dancehall – Whip What:

3. Bloc Party – Montreal (Ejeca Remix):

It’s that time again. All our tunes from the last month in one easy-to-use playlist, escorted by our usual carefully selected Top 5 tracks of the month. Reprimand us on Twitter and/or Facebook if you feel we’ve made any howling errors on this month’s selections.

This should tide things over nicely until our FINAL PARTY OF THE YEAR. In 28 days time we will be taking over the former department store now known as Peckham Palais and assembling a frighteningly good line-up for our Halloween party. Heading back down South of the river, we welcome the fabulous Mighty Mouse to headline proceedings. Support on the 1s and 2s comes from long-time HD fave Clancy and before him, all the way from Australia, is Black Magic Disco. Let’s make him feel welcome.

Friday 1^st November. Block it out. Tickets are currently a steal at just £5 a pop, so snap one/loads up from the link below and tell your pals about it here.

5. Bodhi – Imperfection: With an upcoming EP on Future Classic and this brilliant piece of catchy pop, the Welsh duo are slowly taking over. Catch them on their UK tour this Autumn…
