Here is a list of songs that magically, randomly appeared in my iTunes playlist this morning.
I have tried to add some youtube videos for the sonic experience for you while I sort out my bandwidth and hosting issues.
Paul Johnson – She Got Me On
This is the full vocal mix. I played it last night on my radio show (www.faderwave.net /shamless )to great success. I picked this one up in 2004 on Yellow Productions (a favorite record label of mine) and have been playing it ever since.
Beirut – No Dice
Definitely on the mellow tip when compared to the Paul Johnson track posted above but this song really sets the mood for me.
Chicken Lips – Sweet Cow
I couldn’t find the Lindstrom mix on youtube which is possibly my favorite mix of this song ever. The original is pretty stellar body music though, one of my first forays into downtempo grooves from my house days.
Le Tigre – Deceptacon
I think I played the DFA remix myself when I would play this one but today, up popped the original as if to remind me just how much I liked this stuff. Definitely a punked up version of a dowop song, if such a thing could ever exist… this is it.
FPU – Ocean Drive (Tiga’s White Linen Vox mix)
Some synthpop to round out the top 5 random tracks in my iTunes playlist today. This is not the 80s! Or so the album I first heard this on tells me. This is nu wave synthpop and makes me feel like I should have some leather on and not feel bad about it!
That is about it for now… next week more of this new feature.
that le tigre track is awesome fun
