Okay so I know it’s well over, but I’ve received a few emails of late asking me to post the the set I played at the Electric Picnic this year. So here it is, all thirty mins of it, until those big bad security guys called a premature end to it all… Ah well, it was 4.30.a.m .

For APC’s second Birthday, I knew straight away I wanted to toy around with something from APC’s uber femme, Panic Girl. Take a Chance really pricked up my ears when I first heard it, it reminded me of Alison Shaw from Cranes doin’ a Spaghetti Western theme. Panic Girl was kind enough to let me butcher her track, strip it back and sprinkle a little stardust from Morcheeba and Billy Idol all over it. Blue ur Chance is the result… SI, congrats on APC’s second b’day kimosabi!
