blog 2013/10/15 - some times there is a cloud of terrible just crashing around
invested in the moment for too long: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20131015.zip
Battles - Sundome (EYE Remix): Since my formative years in the early 90s, I've been a total EYE fangirl. Even with a release with as mystifing purpose as a Battles remix album, I can always wash away the detreius and just chill with EYE and obliterate all structure.
Buck 65 - Dolores: Rich takes vocoder lessons from Bon Iver and produces this lovely little fusion jam for 20 Odd Years: Volume 4 - Ostranenie.
Chance The Rapper - Good Ass Intro ft BJ The Chicago Kid, Lili K., Kiara Lanier, Peter Cottontail: Acid Rap is refreshing in so many ways. It's got GREAT stuff going on, but then it also has a few dalliances in to hiphop assholery, dropping slurs against gays and women just as casual banter and yeah, some great stuff, but fuck you for that, Chance.
Charli XCX - You're the One (Blood Orange Remix): Dear lord, this is total pop ecstasy right here. Everything going on is just essential.
Chiddy Bang - Mind Your Manners ft Icona Pop: I guess it's Chiddy's thing, loop up a ridiculous pop hook and just go from there. Whatevs, it totally works here.
Chihei Hatakeyama - Algenib: Another drone slab from CH, this time from Norma.
DJ Hype - Dub Plate Fever: So there I was sifting through the entire Suburban Bass back catalogue and this one pops out to me and my god it's been YEARS, but oh that "jungle jungle" sample was all it took and boom you're back and it's almost 2 decades ago.
Gaslight Anthem - Hold You Up: Gaslight Anthem - Hold You Up
Gaslight Anthem - Skinny Love (Bon Iver cover): From a 10" released on Record Store Day, Gaslight Anthem show off their meditative calming side to great effect.
Helios - Every Hair on Your Head (Ben Boysen Remix)
Helios - Halving The Compass (Rhian Sheehan Remix): Here is a remix album I can dig in to, extended works for electronics and piano+guitar are always up my alley.
Joey Bada$$ - My Yout
Joey Bada$$ - World Domination: Like Chance, Joey is part of a crop of young rappers who have tonnes of astonishing talent and are really excitiing, if you can work around the daliances in to douchery.
LOL Boys - Changes (Anenon One Take Cover)
LOL Boys - Changes ft Heart Streets: I rarely put up 2 mixes of the same song, but Anenon stripped-to-the-horns version is so great not to pass on, and the original so lovely that what am I to do?
Shearwater - I Luv the Valley Oh: The new album is Fellow Travelers and while I am not in love with all Shearwater albums, there are always parts of it that are incredible and have to dive in regardless.
The Pink Mountaintops - Rock n Roll Fantasy: This goes back to 2004, and YES, it is the guy from Black Mountain and that is why it's so awesome.
Tic Tic Boom! - These Motions: There is a Matt & Kim level of cheerleader exuberance going on here.
Top Less Gay Love Tekno Party - Danger Love: With a name like that you're probably expecting some more radical speedbass type excursions, but nope, you get straight-up fabulous soaring pop.
