A ballad about ageing and nostalgia for youth, may not exactly be your idea of a pre-game track, but when it's an old Arctic Monkeys song that's bouncy and poppy, and the film clip includes a brawl with clowns, it kind of works. 'Fluorescent Adolescent' is this weeks beat of choice.
'Fluorescent Adolescent' was the second release off their 2007 album 'Favourite Worst Nightmare' (yep, more than 10 years ago now!). You know this is a tune that would go down well live, with a raucous crowed, bellowing back every word.
Get your dance on as this is going to be a big one. Bringing a sense of Euphoria, Peter Robinson as Virtual Self's track 'Ghost Voices' is a totally sexy tune that will keep you moving and wanting more.
If you could go on a date with a past historical figure, who would it be? That is the game alt-J were playing when they wrote the single 'Deadcrush'. A track that is breathy and romantically edgy sounding. And the game, a fun one to play when you crack a cold one with mates this afternoon.
Scottish boys Franz Ferdinand have been having a bit of fun the past year. With a rework of 'Glimpse Of Love' off the album 'Always Ascending', there's an extra kick and punch we can get behind that's got everyone dancing out of sync this Friday.
