First things first: Please go and vote for my site at the BT Digital Music Awards: In the best music blog category. It’s a UK music award, and I don’t see it saying you can’t vote more than once with different email addresses. And you can vote once every day! [Link]

- Muse released an incredible sci-fi/ western/kung fu music video for Knights of Cydonia a few months ago and no-one told me. It’s one of the best videos of the year. [Link]
- Los Campesinos: UK buzz band. It’s realism time @ Drowned In Sound “Los Campesinos! are charming, attractive and above all have the potential to become something very special. Right now, though, I just wish they’d be given a little more room to grow” [Link]
- One of the best UK mp3 blogs Spoilt Victorian Child has called it a day. Hopefully the record label arm will continue to release great music. They released Victor Scotts album “Happy Days” a while back and it’s still one of my favourite albums. Get it now.
- Imogen Heap is going to pick her support acts via Myspace
- The Wooster Collective street art/graffiti blog used to have a lot of their artists create some brilliant 20-100 minutes mixes and then deliver them in podcast form. It’s got me into a lot of fantastic hip-hop music and I would seriously recommend it to any discerning listener looking for something fresh. I honestly can’t stand a lot of indie when I’m listening on my iPod - these mixes are perfect when I’m on my bike or just aimlessly wandering from place to place. All the podcasts are still available to download. [Link]
- In other news: Pimp my snack: Custard Cream³
- You can now rate posts/ the music contained within the them by simply clicking whichever star you feel is appropriate.


Consider yourself one vote heavier - good luck with your category!
First the awesome streamy music thingamajigs and now the rating system? Yet another technolical bound for NBGL - nice.
Well done on your nomination. I didnt know about that muse video either. Im sure they never realeased “knights of cydonia” as a single. Maybe they just did a Beck?
