It's been pretty miserable at times - heavy, pluvial skies pathetic fallacy for debut all-dayers and long weekenders that have sometimes spluttered rather than flown out of the traps. The weather and the times - to an extent at least - brightened last weekend, with the traditional sign off from music in the sun that is Reading and Leeds. And that, I suppose, is reason enough to break from cynicism just this once. It was a bind, but there were finer times. Time to gather thoughts and lighten brows...»
DiS heads to Barcelona for the second time this year - following Primavera at the end of May - for Summercase. What we find: a drunk Lily Allen, a chilled-out Chemical Brothers, and some dodgy scotch...»
It serves them right to suffer. While some of us sat scratching our arses from the comfort of our living rooms, occasionally pushing the red button to keep Jo Whiley at bay, some idiots actually went to Glastonbury. But we're not bitter. No. It would have been nice to have an invite, but that's all history now.

New album Myth Takes, out March 5, re-sows the seeds of love...»
It does precisely what it says in the title: this is the DiS guide to some of the finest records coming your way in the first quarter of 2007. January, February and March: each will bear witness to some ace-o-rama releases, and here are just some of them...»
The new album is, by turns, sassy, funky, dubby, druggy, spaced, funny and meaty beaty. DiS finally catches up with Warp's bi-coastal dance/rock collective for a few words.»
Ain't it hard to find out what's going on in our nation's capital? With summer holidays nearly upon us loads more people will be coming into London. More bands will be playing. More crazy events will taking place. But where on earth do you start looking to find out what's going on, and a bit about it? »
