We like Bradford Cox in any of his guises, be that lead singer of Deerhunter, experimental popped in Atlas Sound or crowd-baiter with his recent, epic take on My Sharona.

One of our favourite Cox moments in particular is his sample heavy juicing in ‘Walkabout’ featuring Animal Collective’s Noah Lennox A.K.A. Panda Bear. Refresh the memory above!

Neneh Cherry and the Thing join us in London soon. After hearing about the relaxed, improvisational nature of their shows we can’t wait – it sounds like there could be some real fireworks.
