Before I dive straight in and tell you whats on my non iPod I’ll explain my intentions.

I don’t own an iPod and probably never will. I don’t like being tied into programs to listen to my own music and before you even go down that road it’s all mine. I paid for it. On CD, not a download in sight. Call me a luddite but I like to have a physical copy in all it’s glory taking up cupboard space. At the very least I like the artwork (for al those that like smutty stuff I can recommend Jimi Hendrix’s Electric Ladyland).

What was I going on about. Ah yes, I’ve owned an Archos AV420 ( www.archos.com ) for 2 years and it beats iPods hands down, just drag and drop the folder and it updates itself pure heaven. It’s done a fair few miles with me and has kept me entertained with the films on it. Perfect.

Bin that iPod and buy that Archos. It’ll change your life!

So back to the music, this week I’ve been a little bit Punk with:

The Buzzcock’s – Singles, Going Steady
The Buzzcock’s – BBC Sessions

And a little bit more aurally violent with:

Pi Soundtrack

And a little more Leftfield with:

Another Late Night – Kid Loco
Another Late Night – Tommy Guerrero
The KLF – Chill Out
