NEoN Rocks




Dundee Digital Arts Festival arrived, finally, last weekend... predictably, in Dundee. It's called NEoN, or North East of North and it was a consummate 'cracker'!

So, NEoN Rocks is a
Spotify playlist:

NEoN Rocks - original digital arts festival soundtrack

5 Whatever Happened To Pong? Frank Black

6 Weekend Wars MGMT

A big chunk of what NEoN is al about

7 Theme From Narc The Pixies

15 Neon Rocks Calvin Harris

Well, does it not..!?

16 100% Dundee The Roots

@newvibes idea... and NEoN’s defo Dundee

17 Sweet Emotion Aerosmith For that masterful VGL performance

It's not scientific, but it references NEoN and there are a couple of suggestions that arrived via twitter. So, this is the fictional artwork for the fictional album - the main purpose being that it reveals my train of though with regards to the selections.

So, hope you enjoy at least some of the playlist and feel free to download the pictures :)
