September 2011 Playlist

The June Playlist has finally emerged as the September playlist and all feels slightly righter with the Flirt world now it's been uploaded. It's been 3 months coming, so it's serving as a recap of the best stuff from this summer, and what a summer it's been for new releases. We've been loving The Chemical Brothers, Crystal Castles, Devo, School of Seven Bells, Sia, Wolf Parade, Ratatat and Sleigh Bells to name but a few. Here's a few of the tracks that have been piquing our interest over the last while...

Maylist 2010

The year is just zooming past, exams are nearly finished and it's time for the annual Flirt Maylist; this is the playlist that signals the start of the summer proper, festival season, hopefully a bit of decent weather and some students bidding a permanent farewell to campus life (sniffle).

You can stream the playlist here, clicking on the images'll bring you to the artists' websites. My personal favourite for the weirdness is Tobacco - their artwork is bizarre in the best way. Irish acts include Cathy Davey, So Cow and Nouveaunoise, and they're all top notch!

Maylist 2009

Okie dokie, it's this year's one and only Flirt FM Maylist; it's extra special as it's around about now we're saying goodbye to some students (and volunteers), our morning schedule, and hoping to say hello to some semi-decent weather. (A girl can hope!)

Anyway, enough of my chatter, what of the tunes? Oh they're good. And most of them are so new there's nowt up on youtube for them, so in some cases I've posted other interesting work by the artists. And a cat. Irish artists marked [i]. See you next month,

Paula.
