As an interview with Mica Levi in Saturday's Guide will tell you, Never is a record unlike any other. For one thing, it was made with instruments that included a contraption made of MDF called "the Chopper" and something that sounds like "a computer doing a complicated sum". A piece of bed was also involved somewhere along the way too.

It seem Micachu is happy to pick up the bubbly, experimental pop of her debut album Jewellery, which we declared the eighth best record of 2009. From the clattering DIY percussion of opening track Easy to the giddy chug of Heaven, Micachu demonstrates her way with new sounds is as playful as ever. What's more, she refuses to let her experimental side get in the way of some delightful pop melodies.
