READ MORE: Romy on her spectacular solo debut: "This album is an invitation to dance" Speaking with Matt Wilkinson on his Apple Music 1 show, the vocalist discussed what a potential new record with The xx could sound like. "No idea. We have a laugh about it together though. If you get some trance pads from me, and Oliver [Sim, bassist and vocalist] wailing and then Jamie ["xx" Smith, production] with really hectic drums. We were laughing. But I think that we have a lot of love for the sound we create with The xx." She continued: "I think that, for me, I'm excited to pick up the guitar again and embrace that sound, but do something in a new way. I think I want to keep evolving though. I think we all do. That's why I wanted to do this project, to learn and specifically to work with other people. To learn how they work. To come back to Oliver and Jamie and think, 'Well, I learned this stuff from these other people, and we can bring that fresh energy into things.'" Romy has released her first solo album 'Mid Air' today (September 8). Speaking to NME, the vocalist explained that initially, she wasn't sure about making a solo album. "I don't think I felt like I could do it, self-confidence wise," she said. "And I didn't have a burning desire to have all the attention on me." In a five-star review of 'Mid Air', NME shared: "'Mid Air' feels timely as well as satisfying. From the Balearic glide of 'The Sea' to the thumping climax of 'Did I', which recreates the feeling of 3am at a sweaty Greek island club, it's the work of an artist with a sincere appreciation for dance music and the skills to make her own galvanising bangers. Many of these songs will give you a prick of emotion at the back of your eyes - a sure sign that Romy really appreciates the healing power of a packed club floor.

British victory in Falklands War might spur Argentina to build nukes CIA feared

Agency worried that Argentina's political isolation following defeat could play a role in a decision to advance its nuclear program The CIA feared that British victory in the 1982 Falklands conflict would encourage Argentina's ruling military junta to step up its efforts to construct nuclear weapons, according to a newly uncovered report. Intelligence analysts at the spy agency examining the issue of nuclear proliferation wrote in a secret report that "the Falkland Islands crisis is raising security issues for Buenos Aires that could influence Argentine attitudes towards the development of nuclear technology." The report, dated 24 April 1982, said: "A humiliation in the Falklands probably would encourage the conclusion that the possession of nuclear weapons - or merely the foreign belief that Argentina had such weapons - might have made the UK more accommodating. A major reverse for Argentina in the dispute could persuade it to proceed to build nuclear weapons....

Osho – forget about being aware

Osho – forget about being aware: rather, start enjoying the thought process in OSHO INSIGHTS ON MEDITATION [A sannyasin says that he is fed up with his mind. I feel I’m never here and I never see anything at all. I try everything: I try meditation, I try to be aware, But often I don’t feel it. Osho checks his energy.] Osho – Two things to be remembered…. One: don’t try to stop it. That’s how you are creating the whole problem; don’t try to stop it. It is very natural to you; you will go crazy if you try to stop it. It will be like a tree trying to stop its leaves; the tree will go mad. The leaves are very natural to it. You are a mind person. If you try to become a heart person you will create so much trouble for yourself, and unnecessarily, because there is a way which goes from the mind itself. There is no need to change yourself into a heart person, mm? That will be against your intrinsic nature. Always listen to your nature, follow your nature. To be natural is to be religio...
