Ninja Tune records in general is awesome. If you like Mr Scruff, you'd probably like most of the stuff on their label.

Also, Kid Koala is a turntable genius. Love that guy!

Also Metronomy, Little Dragon and Amon Tobin. For the aging hipsters in the crowd.

Al’s I saw Kid Koala a couple times in the mid 2000s including a little bar show that was fucking amazing. We played bingo at the little show. I just found my bingo card a few days ago.

It's like when one of your favorite tracks from an album gets used in a commercial.

It's cool but also sucks.

Like when Plastina Mosh's "Supercombo Electronico" got used in like a Verizon commercial.

There's a cover of Aerosmith's Dream On that's sung by a scandinavian performer in that rich, deep, lush way you expect, and it sounds beautiful.

It's the typical "take a rock song and slow it down for a solo" thing they do with every song on those amateur-with-celebrity-judges talent shows, but it sounds actually natural and real instead of this generation's Aguilaran Vocal Gymnastics. But she only did it for the commercial.
