The Doctor Who Tom Baker Intro

Had a massive nostalgia trip. Even though the 'Tom Baker' years technically occurred outside of my existence, they were the only ones I watched during my upbringing. The intro is so iconic and synonymous with the science fiction genre. Doctor Who > Star Trek. When developing the Tom Baker Doctor character, he was described as a 'cosmic hobo'.

I wonder who really planted the seeds to eventually give birth to the whole rave scene in the UK back in the 80s? Club owners, the drug culture, or quite simply, everyone's fascination with Doctor Who?

Before Cut Copy were Cut Copy

All the way back in 2001, before their popular dance electro albums Bright Like Neon Love and In Ghost Colours, Cut Copy released their first EP titled I Thought of Numbers. It contained 7 tracks, some of which reminded me of something the Avalanches would've done. Six or so years later, they would play a large role in propelling Australia's electro scene, alongside The Presets and The Midnight Juggernauts.

The MFA – The Difference It Makes

The MFA (Motherfucking Allstars) are London-based duo Rhys Evans (Welsh) and Alastair Douglas (not Welsh).

This is the song that made them popular and look as promising as the Chemical Brothers. Minimalistic electro dance is probably the easiest way I can describe this.

I find you that french boy, you find me that french girl

Oldie but definitely a goodie. Mix house, french, electro and sexy sounds and you'll get this great tune.
