The album is called Logic Of Chance and this is the first track from it. Pip has lost none of his sharpness and this is proof that the skill of ‘Thou Shalt Always Kill’ is no one-off; this guy has the power to touch kids “But not in a Daily Mail way”.

‘Get Better’ is the equivalent of a self-help book and Sunday sermon for a generation of synth pop rap-poets; post-punk vs. Gil Scott-Heron (I’m New Here).

The ‘Get Better’ chorus really is a bit Vincent Clarke that The Errors exaggerate even more on the remix that forms the other side of the 7” release.

But it’s the remixes that are the more FLY for us, one by remixer that put dubstep in electro, Jakwobo and the fantastic House-Disco-Dub by Villa (not happy with the result today I suspect). No doubt Sunday Best’s Mr. da Bank had a hand in finding these two he remains as eclectic as ever with his Radio 1 show, and they’ve picked up someone that’s already caught the eye of Hot Chip’s Joe Goddard with a remix of Toddla T’s ‘Rebel’ (whilst on the subject, Goddard’s Harvest Festival that came out in the Christmas rush gets better on every listen).

And would Mr. Bank have done the Sunday Best ‘79 remix himself? Quite possibly as he seems to be a master of all-trades.

The guys are on a Videochat (whatever that is) on myspace tonight (Monday, 1st March at 6pm) so you can ask them all the questions you want of the sages, whether it be about the relevance of hip-hop today or old Casio keyboards. And kids, as a general rule, I tend to agree that it ain’t clever to do drugs and get drunk every night and the main thing is to use your energies to get better.
