    - equivalent of session musicians
      
      on record it is all written/performed by one guy

      - not session musicians
        
        friends and colleagues
        i interviewed them for dazed tv the other day
        they are nice

        they had flashing lights on their
        
        tshirts, that was quite good, i cant remember much else about them.

        I remember the music.
        
        It was mathematical and burrowed into my head.
        I remember the performance, it was great.
        Anyone beeping geek band with a co-ordinated dance routine wins me over really quite quickly.

        mmm
        
        i dont remember the coordinated dance routine, there again the stage was quite small, maybe they couldnt do it.
        
        i think ill go and listen to them again now to try and remind myself who they are...

        They all span round in funny ways at Koko.
        
        It was really great.

I'm going to investigate her on eMusic.

I have stuff by the other three and they are all completely great.

- Her stuff is amazing
  
  especially "Henrietta". One minor quibble: how does Uffie qualify as a "one man band"? She's totally reliant on amazing production by Mr Oizo and Feadz.

  - Presentation.
    
    John_Brainlove @jedeteste | 10 Jun '07, 14:51 | X
  - See above.
    
    John_Brainlove @lauraspelledwrong | 10 Jun '07, 20:22 | X
    - Yeah.
      
      Her poshness is all part of the mix.
      She's my favourite "of the moment" underground pop-star...

    - i think everyone knows my opinion of nappyIII

    - Tracy and the Plastics...
      
      haven't heard that name in ages, have an album from her from several years ago...
      
      tom_from_sparks | 10 Jun '07, 21:08 | X
      - tracy + the plastics have 'split' now...
        
        ...but Wynne's working on a new project - i think, also, alone (but this time with just one persona).
        
        kicking_k @tom_from_sparks | 11 Jun '07, 02:08 | X
        
        yeah
        
        it's called libber i think

    - not as hard as your mum.
      
      John_Brainlove @jacklj | 11 Jun '07, 02:54 | X
    - i have never properly come across Uffie
      
      until i bothered to look her up tonight.
      
      she looks really irritating.
      
      but her music is alright.
      
      hmm.

      - She looks irritating?
        
        You are clearly a very straight female indeed.
