George Lenton, Johnny Cash, Crookers, Dan Black

K, it’s a short blog today, so let’s start with what is truly an amazing video from a man in the last few years of his life, the legend Johnny Cash doing NIN’s Hurt …”what have I become? My sweetest friend, everyone I know goes away in the end…..” truly an amazing rendition of an amazing song. His last ever album is due out sometime early this year, I seem to recall April being mentioned

YAY, it's been a while but George Lenton has come out of his hiatus to give us more of his chilled mania driven genius:

Crookers
Transilvania (feat. Steed Lord)
You know that Crookers know how to bring the party. With anticipation building for the release of their debut album—the aptly named Tons of Friends is due out in March—“Transilvania” confirms that Crookers have lost not one ounce of their banger know-how.

Dan Black
Symphonies (feat. Kid Cudi)
Dan Black is poised to become the new face of indie hip-hop hybrids, and who better to show him the ropes than Kid Cudi. Cudi injects his patented easy verse into this edit of “Symphonies,” seamlessly flowing into the plaintive beats and melancholic rock that made the original tune a viral favorite for the past several months.
