blog 2014/01/28 - at -40 we are all equal
math it up: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140128.zip
Against Me! - Paralytic States
Against Me! - Talking Transgender Dysphoria Blues: The new album Transgender Dysphoria Blues is an incredible ride. Storytelling intensity that rivals Okkervil River with a sound that scours and is free from polish, letting all the fury through. Recommended.
Bill Vanloo - Tones (For Sarah): The warm sweet pulses dance along the clicks and it's the exact blanket I want to wake up with.
Cosmo Sheldrake - I Threw A Rock Into The Sea: Deep in my heart is a locked room filled with rainbows and once you have passed the harrowing trials, you must sing this song to enter.
Fulgeance - Square (Oknai Remix): No tricks no gimmicks no waiting for the fucking drop.
Galleries - Midnight Rush: Bistro rock of grand proportions, from the new album No Miracles.
Goldroom - Embrace (Keljet Remix): This hits all the parts of The Recipe For Pop Satisfaction.
Hella Comet - Tinker Boat: Remember the 90s when DGC grunge was all the coolest shit around?
Ladyfrnd - Un Petit Message: Will you be my ladyfrnd [y] [n] ?
Liz - All Them Boys: Soulful garage is the undersung hero of sexy dance music, furreals.
Night Beds - 22: Short and solemn and rests down just right.
Okkervil River - Down Down the Deep River
Okkervil River - Stay Young: Oh what is that? The Silver Gymnasium is the new Okkervil River album? OMG YES PLEASE.
Oskar Schuster - Matilda (Live)
Oskar Schuster - Paris Montparnasse: 2 pieces of solo piano that grip me the whole way through
Painted Palms - Here It Comes: Even the plinky plonk can become a sing-along anthem.
Psapp - Wet Salt (Radio Edit): The sweet quirky beats of PSAPP have been around for a long while now and I'm so glad their new stuff is still so delightful.
Raz Ohara - Hymn (Hardman Remix): This guy is panting. Panting for you. Hear him pant all over the room! Like if Prince was LITERALLY stroking it while hopping on the beat.
Reklein - Harland: Total blissed out breakbeat on this one.
Rhian Sheehan - Somnus (Hummel's 'Shh, Soma is Sleeping' Remix): And then we get deep in to my dreams and just float away for the rest of it.

MP3 blog 2014/01/21
blog 2014/01/21 - we don't believe it to be but we are wishing for it so hard to spite the rest
good day and hello again: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140121.zip
Call To Mind - A Family Sketch : Whistful epicness from The Winter Is White.
Crashworship - Pyru (Edenflux Remix): This is from 2009 soulseekers comp and holy shit is this awesome.
Del Bel - Dusk Light: From the 2011 album Oneiric.

Débruit & Alsarah - Alkoan Baladi : Sick poppy and oh so sweet.
Eminem - Love Game ft Kendrick Lamar: Not an Eminem fan, but this is here for the Kendrick and the beat. Totally purile, but oh the flow…
Erika Spring - HAG (Aeroplane Remix): Totally smokey and subdued electro pop.
Four Tet - Parallel Jalebi: Pulsing smooth from the new album Beautiful Rewind.
French Horn Rebellion & Savoir Adore - The Fire: 2 of my favourite bring the massive joyous cries of forever to the masses.
Grimes - Skin (Four Tet's Human Once Again Remix): The perfect rework of Grimes that I think is possible.
Grizzly Bear - Will Calls (Diplo Remix): Thus proving that pretty much anyting can be a trappy slammer.
Joaan - Out Of Slang: I still love dubsteppy stuff that sticks to the purity of the progamming, the dark sounds, the twirky little progressions, all that 2005 ish.
Jon Kennedy - Electronic Sound Pictures: All these years later and JK still pulls out the epic soundtrack feels.
Just Out Zonin - Tori Amos: oh hey did I mention that ANYTHING CAN BE A TRAP REMIX?
Karol Conka - Boa Noite: so frickin badass, I love everything about this.
ParoXysM - Decisions: Another dynamite track off that 2009 soulseekers comp. Skitter all over the place.

MP3 blog 2014/01/14
blog 2014/01/14 - doors open if you know how
and so we go: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140114.zip
Andrea - All Yours: Full synth wash bass plodder to get us going!
Applescal - Spring And Life: There's something so technical and precise about this while also staying super warm and inviting. I love it in all of its contridictions.
Busta Rhymes & Q-Tip - The Abstract & The Dragon: While the new collab "fans wet dream" reunion mixtape wasn't a glorious revelation of all new craziness, this is a solid reminder that ATCQ still resonates well in to this century. Admit it, you'd spend an hour just watching these two have a tea party.
Charles Bradley - Strictly Reserved For You: Another solid bit of soul from the latest, Victim of Love.
Classixx - Stranger Love (RAC Mix): Classsixx and pop, two dance pop flavours that go together perfectly.
Es Muss Sein - Those Eyes: Lovely little folk that reminds me a bit of First Aid Kit.
Hundred Waters - Gather
Hundred Waters - Sonnet: Parts of this album remind me of a stripped out Joanna Newsom, but more 60s folk and 90s triphop.
Land Of Kush - St Stefano
Land Of Kush - The Pit (Part 1): This is just total glee. Beautiful jazzy horns and then whooosh we switch in to a roundabout pop mode and nail it.
Los Campesinos! - What Death Leaves Behind: Never count out the Campesinos, always always bringing it.
Maya Jane Coles - Not In My House: all over this tech bounce ish.
Michael Jacket - Casino: If we're going to go minimal, best also confuse my head as well.
Phosphorescent - A Charm, A Blade
Phosphorescent - Song for Zula: Muchacho is the perfect Bon Iver chaser, and brings one closer to the country cottage feels.
The Invisible - Wings (Floating Points Remix): Dreamy blips 4evah.

MP3 blog 2014/01/08
blog 2014/01/08 - back for 2014... and beyond!
let's get this started: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140108.zip
Alpines - Chances (Daichan Remix): Kick off with some bouncy chill bass.
Bobby Womack - Please Forgive My Heart: Top notch soul over a wicked skitterskat beat.
CHVRCHES - It's Not Right But It's Okay (Whitney Huston cover): AWWW YESSS we need some WHITNEY up in the place!
Elbow & The BBC Concert Orchestra - One Day Like This
Elbow & The BBC Concert Orchestra - Weather To Fly: Oh man, this slipped under my radar for a while, but Elbow got together with the BBC Concert Orchestra and tore the roof off.
ETC!ETC! & Brillz & Diplo - Bueller ft Whisky Pete: You know you need this ish.
Fabrizio Paterlini - Far away from here (AlesMusiques d'images rmx)
Fabrizio Paterlini - Viandanze (Wilhelms desolateCode rmx): 2 deep slices from the nifty little Fabrizio Paterlini Remixed album.
How To Destroy Angels - Ice Age: An Omen came out in 2012, and is a great new release from Mariqueen Maandig. For some reason people weren't in to this album, but I think it's pretty great. She has some notorious husband who is also in this band, Brent Tenzor or something like that. He apparently angered people back in usenet days and no one ever forgave him, so the internet rages at him endlessly. But fuck that, Maandig's got some great chill vibes going on.
How To Dress Well - Here, In Heaven (Elite Gymnastics cover): This guy just smooths everything out oh so perfectly. From the Elite Gymnastics' Ruin 3 EP.
ITAL TEK - Black And White: Dig this one back from 2010's release Midnight Colour, a smooth downtempo slow burner.
Neko Case - I'm From Nowhere
Neko Case - Local Girl: While I am not convinced she is breaking much ground on it, The Worse Things Get, the Harder I Fight, the Harder I Fight, the More I Love You is still a hella enjoyable album. Recommended.
Nosaj Thing - Snap: Nosaj Thing's Home is sooooo dreaamy.
Soul II Soul - Back To Life (Follow Me Remix): Just drop a little classics all around the place…
Speedy Ortiz - MKVI
Speedy Ortiz - Plough: More greatness from the fabulous album Major Arcana.
Zion I - Breaking Bad ft Nump & Povi Tamu: Close up with a killer trapbass floor filler jam.
