blog 2013/09/24 - no you can't just skip right to the end

Angel Haze - Drop It
Angel Haze - Wicked Moon ft Nicole Wray:  Angel Haze.  Reservation.  One of the best hiphop albums from 2012.  Simply amazing.  Highly recommended.

Beth Orton - Call Me The Breeze
Beth Orton - Magpie:  If you like your folk deep, tense brimming with a European magic, you'll love Sugaring Season.  While certainly very, ahhh shall we say "CBC-core", it is one of those adult contemporary sojouns you will have to take when you are ready for a lovely candlelit dinner.  Recommended for fans of the Be Good Tanyas and Sarah McLachlan.

Bill Callahan - The Sing
Bill Callahan - Winter Road:  Bill's back and he's stripped away even more, showing everyone how little excess an Album Of The Year truly needs.  Dream River is a turing test for if I want to sit on a dock and watch the sun rise with you.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Born Gold - Abdomen:  Lead single from the new album I Am An Exit, the production intensity has been turned down only a notch, just allowing the empathic vocals to shine even more.  Get on board people, this is a Canadian answer to Passion Pit's electrojoy.

Braids - In Kind
Braids - Near Enough:  Braids are back for 2013!  Very exciting.

Charli Xcx - Cold Nites (Remix)
Charli Xcx - Moments In Love:  I wasn't super digging the XCX mixtape, but I love these 2 tracks plenty, bringing in some RnB outside help, and then tapping the Art Of Noise.

David Lynch & Alan R. Splet - Eraserhead (Dance Mix):  Every time someone drops the needle on the Eraserhead soundtrack their mind drifts to thoughts like "Dayyam this needs a hot remix".  And thanks to the "Eraserhead: Original Soundtrack Plus" edition, here we are.

Ernie Hines - Our Generation (DJ Nu-Mark Re-Edit):  The classic, flipped for the 2nd wave hiphoppers by Pete Rock, done in a DJ friendly package.

Flosstradamus - ITH ft Tuneboy & DJ Issac:  soundboy be killin it

Hauschka - Radar (Alva Noto Remodel):  Probably my favourite takeaway from the Salon des Amateurs Remixes album.

Josh Martinez - Going Back to Hali ft Classified & Scratch Bastid:  Kinda hard not to just be smiles all over on this.

North Lake - Is It Dangerous To Go Alone:  Total tech wub that I can get right behind.  Go forth brave one.
