Scottish Electronic Classics

Scotland. Oh Scotland. If you go I'm gonna miss you, but I can't blame you – if I saw David Cameron's rubbery Etonian mush on my telly, wringing his hands, verging on tears, looking like there was a very real likelihood he might do an actual shit in his pants if we left, it'd be a no brainer. Personally I hope Scotland push the button. Even if it could well bugger up our English economy, and condemn us to years of rule by right wing bastards intent on bringing back hanging for those found guilty of povergration (which is a handy catch all term I've just invented for anyone looking a bit foreign and/or gyppy), it'd still shake things out of the horrible limbo like existence we seem to have sunk into, a place where the bastards at the top can do literally whatever they like, with apparently zero consequence. Or so they thought. Thieving bankers, dodgy politicians, and assorted establishment nonces, how's this for the consequence of your nasty ways; at least half of an entire country is telling you to fuck off. That seems quite conclusive to me….
Whatever happens in the Scottish referendum, at least let us look fondly on one of the things the Scots have been providing the world with for the last quarter century: bangin tunes. From the techno might of Soma to the far reaching influence of LuckyMe and Numbers' genre polygamy, Hhere are 8 tracks that show a small country punching above it's weight time and again. Plus I've thrown in a track by some French guys you may have heard of that got released by the Scots first. Enjoy. You've probably got around 24 hours to keep on claiming these as 'British'…
The warbly synths in Positive Education have been scientifically proven to be the closest man has ever come to recreating the tingly moment of coming up on a mega dove. Fact.
