Late Again?

Yes, again I am 1 day late.

Tip of the Week: Don't have margaritas at lunch if you want stuff to get done later.

Tip of the Week #2: Don't count on me if promptness is important.

This week was weird. I liked a lot of songs posted but had a hard time fitting them into a coherent mix. Life is better incoherent anway. Enjoy.

Download the mix HERE.

Tracklist:

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Y-Control
Download from Skatterbrain

I like this one a large amount. And Maps too. Unfortunately Skatterbrain says thats all they got that's worth it. I think I heard some other stuff that didn't really get me going so I'm in Skatterbrain's camp until proven otherwise.


The Arcade Fire - Wake Up
Download from Awesome Until Proven Guilty.

Several Acrade Fire songs were posted this week. This one is nice and driving though. (I have to interrupt myself here and say that typing is getting really annoying because the blogcrap software keeps inserting random line breaks into my wonderful prose.) I assume at some point they will have a new album. It'll probably be a disappointment. When was the last highly anticipated album that lived up to the hype?

Ivy - Streets of Your Town
Download from Chromewaves.net

Breezy and soft. Just like my jumper. Or my ass.

Feist - Mushaboom (Postal Service Remix)
Download from The Laws Have Changed.

Truthfully, I like the regular version better. But this weeks mix was light on remixes/weirdo-shit and there are approximately 427,000 remixes of this song out there. Most of them are pretty bad, but this one adds a little something different. Postal Service apparently also remixes 20 times more songs than they themselves produce. I don't know how Ben has time to do them and still pose for magazine cover photos that make me want to punch each Death Cab member in the face.

LTJ Bukem - Horizons (Edit)
Download from The Daily Growl

Remember this? Back when jungle was the next big thing. I like everything this short edit brings except the little diva wails. I never really got into LTJ but the British dance press was drooling nonstop.

Outkast - ATLiens
Download from Think Tank.

Old school Outkast for ya. I like sayin "Oh Yeah-err" more than just about anything.

Hot Chip - Sexual Chocolate
Download from Pocket|Trax

I hope I'm not overdoing the Hot Chip but God Damn are they good. This is off their Down With Prince EP which pay tribute to/mocks the purple one. The guitar solo would make the Ween bros shed a tear. I want to get drunk and sing this all night.
