"Looking For Someone" by East India Youth, from his new album Total Strife Forever, which flits between busy electronica and desolate, Glass-y vistas. Something tells me I'll like the album a little more on a summer's evening, but it's keeping me interested enough for now.

"Allô Paris" by Mano Solo.

Today marks the 258th anniversary of Mozart's birth. Here is the famous 1967 recording of his (and Sussmayr's) Requiem by the BBC Symphony Orchestra, conducted by the much lamented Sir Colin Davis. Helen Dorath, Yvonne Minton, Ryland Davies, Gerd Nienstedt, and the John Alldis Choir lend their voices.
