Testing... testing...

So sorry. If you've been looking for the long-awaited Best of 2011 list, you'd have noticed that I've been having problems uploading the player. But I think I have it fixed! Here, try the player below. If I've been successful you'll have a mix (chronological to boot!) of the spacier side of the Indian-British dance rock hybrid known as Cornershop, led by the inimitable proud "wog" himself, Tjinder Sing. If all you've heard from them is the "Brimfull of Asha" stuff (which is great, actually) this should surprise you. It takes more than sitars and tablas to make it psychedelic - check those spacerock guitars!
