Beat Poetry: November 2008
http://beatpoetrylondon.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, 20 November 2008. Before we get into end of the year lists, i want to cast half an eye into the future and think a little bit about what's coming in 2009 and a couple of acts i'm pretty excited about hearing more from. Empire of the Sun - We Are The People. Alessi's Ark - Magic Weather. The last is South East London band The Invisible. They play intricate songs that feel both raw and complex, somewhere between TV On The Radio, Battles and Plantlife. This is a band that has sprung out of...Ah Pa...

Beat Poetry: January 2009
http://beatpoetrylondon.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 21 January 2009. At the risk of this blog turning into one long love letter to Justin Vernon (AKA Bon Iver), the winner of BP's album of the year 2008 this week releases a new EP. It's a fantastic collection of four new songs which carries on exactly where his debut LP For Emma, Forever Ago left off. The title track, Blood Bank, is a beautiful soaring song which Vernon told emusic. Was inspired by cult nineties TV show Northern Exposure. Could have seen that one coming, I guess. We the BP three.

Beat Poetry: Take time for Tom Brosseau
http://beatpoetrylondon.blogspot.com/2009/03/take-time-for-tom.html
Monday, 23 March 2009. Take time for Tom Brosseau. The idea of the slow burner - an album or song that does not immediately knock you off your feet but takes weeks, months or years to infiltrate your nervous system - is a dying concept in an age where we're becoming increasingly accustomed to having every song ever recorded at our fingertips. It is hard to invest time in the awkward when you have Spotify. S entire catalogue to get through and only an infinite amount of time before you die. We the BP three.

Beat Poetry: Damn, Doooom
http://beatpoetrylondon.blogspot.com/2009/03/damn-doooom.html
Monday, 16 March 2009. Who was oustanding at the Roundhouse here in London on Saturday night. All of this brings me to MF Doom. A rapper who has carried on the spirit and innovation of A Tribe Called Quest. His King Geedorah album is probably one of my top five rap LPs of all-time and his new effort on London's Lex Records. Born Like This, which is released on March 24th - promises to be one of the muscial highlights of the year. Kanye West posted this track Ballskin on his blog, and it sounds hottttt.

Monday, 15 December 2008. The top 10 albums of 2008. Oooh a list. On a blog? At the end of the year? With Bon Iver at No1? It's all unheard of, I know, but that's the reality, so deal with it. These are our 10 favourite albums of 2008. The list features Cambodian pop, 8-bit screamo, Balkan folk and electro hair metal but the album of the year is without a doubt, hands-down, number-one-with-a-bullet Bon Iver's For Emma, Forever Ago. It has topped quite a few best-of lists this year (including Rough Trade.
