Mr Scruff - Music Takes Me Up

I love the label Ninja Tune. All of their artists are on high rotation at my house. Mr Scruff is one of these artists, and I am sure that a heap of others will show up on here as time progresses. I was listening to my ipod on the way to work today. Now today was the third day of daylight savings (losing an hour) and the second day of work for the week. A horrible combo.

Walking along, I hit the park (Flagstaff gardens) and then this track came on... I was instantly uplifted into a refreshed mood. Music takes me up.

This track has a dancable groove, cool piano, fast hip bass line and soulful lyrics to make your morning walk.... It finished too soon so I listened to it again.

The video is a great one too, dancing, singing fruit. Reminds me of when i used to draw faces on the oranges at home when I was a kid. To give them some kind of personality before I devoured their juicy brains.

"When the drums come crawling
The baseline moves you in
Sounds of regal splendour
Fit for a king and queen
Secrets of the universe
The mysteries of life
And the things that don't make sense
All come clear
'Cause music takes me up"
