A bit uncharacteristic of me, but I’m vibing so hard with 2007 Calvin Harris, I was reminded of that album today and first up, you’ve just got to spend a full 5 minutes laughing at the album title: I Created Disco. You already know this is going to be an album of fun and shenanigans. Completely unserious album. That’s fine, that’s fun, I’ve got time for it. I’m taking out the trash and just bouncing down the stairs because I’m vibing to retro disco from 2007. The first thing you hear as you put it on, “Merry making, drug taking at my place baby, at my place”, completely unserious, carry on. Very ‘let the words paint and exciting picture’ vibe and it’s giving ‘Daft Punk is playing at my house’.

Second, you forget that Calvin Harris even had a real infectious indie phase. I associate him right now with working on production for some of the world’s biggest pop stars making the sort of radio hits I would simply not listen to. But this one, like I said, quite in that indie nightclub vibe and like bands like LCD Soundsystem. Forget the Strokes, this is the facade of sheer excess that ‘indie sleaze’ wants to remember. It’s a banger of a silly, fun album. And it’s definitely going to become new bed music for my radio show— or I’ll try anyway, the lyrics are super clear, which again makes it that bit more indie to me. Love it.

You can’t not just shake your shoulders to it, that’s the energy I want to bring back. Everyone’s talking ‘2000s nostalgia’, ‘Y2K fashion’ blah blah blah but then still dressing like it’s depression season. ‘Now it’s all very well stepping out in black and white/But you’re no girlfriend of mine if you’re doing that, right?/Get some colours on.’ <- exactly, the 00s were about stupidly colourful fits. Wear those neons. Put on those wristbands. Many clips. Purple and orange leggings, red trousers. Turquoise skirt on top of that, there we go. Everyone’s forgetting how embarrassingly colourful it all was. If you really want to go back to the 00s, dress like my mum would dress me when I was 8.

Those colours were acceptable in the 00s ;)

"Inside this home that I built

Let's all sing together

All those who had been outcasts

Let's all sing together

Our warm fire

Everlasting dreams, spirit and lift

I, today, decided to leave

Don't hate me"

Current Affairs reminiscent of Siouxie Sioux with vocals and a touch of the Cure.  This is my favourite from the album (pics to follow) Track: Right Time

When wolf alice said

"Just looking for a protector

God never reached out in time

There's love that is a saviour

But that ain't no love of mine

My love it kills me slowly

Slowly I could die

And when she sleeps she hears the blues

Sees shades of black and white"

Why. Just why omfg I am deceased

Enjoyed Current Affairs set the other night, gone for Andrew the drummer for the 1st pic as I quite liked the way he casually sat back and bantered between songs. Bit of an 80's punky sound going on, and really liking Joan's vocals, a touch of Siouxie Sioux there.

RobMoro TV | Current Affairs - 'Right Time'

Glasgow’s Current Affairs have revealed details of their debut album alongside the first single ‘Right Time’. The band formed from various shared spaces and familiarity on the music scene that had seen them settle on Glasgow as the heart of where the record was written and produced. The track is set to bring forth the issues that should inspire a call for change politically, while the video is…
