Not many new CDs and no new DVDs doesn’t allow for a very long post. Sorry!

Solid Ground – The Black Seeds. Perfect summer music (weather permitting). This is the Wellington group’s fourth album, and would have been #1 if the Mama Mia soundtrack hadn’t been so popular with people who normally don’t listen to music. Don’t get me started!

Clubbers’ Yearbook – Various. “30 dance remixes of this year’s biggest tracks on 2 CDs,” states the cover. It features Rihanna, The Killers, Mika, Klaxons, and many others.

5 Years Get Physical – Various. Get Physical has become one of the world’s top dance labels, and this 2-CD album collects new tracks and remixes of their top artists.
