I was lucky enough to get my hands on both Nero's Welcome Reality album and Chase & Status' No More Idols album this week and so a few of my favourites well inevitably make an appearance in today's list. Lana Del Rey is also still on constant repeat on my iPod but there's something new in there to liven things up too...
