MP3 blog 2014/05/07

blog 2014/05/07 - The take-away from this exercise is that goa trance is kind of terrible

Don't act surprised:  http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140507.zip


Gossip - Love In A Foreign Place:  My 2nd favourite track from A Joyful Noise from 2012.  The album is a bit of a sleeper, with a few glorious songs worth of Hot Chip sizzling on it.

Jacques Greene - Ready:  Totally wins at "best subby synth pads evah".

Japandroids - Sex and Dying in High Society:  B-side from the 2010 Younger Us 7 inch record.

Jessie Ware - If You're Never Gonna Move:  This is what I always wished Lily Allen sounded like:  a perfect soulful pairing with great programming beneath.

Julia Holter - Hello Stranger
Julia Holter - Maxim's I:  I wasn't all about Loud City Song, but these 2 songs just call out to me.

Junior Boys - You'll Improve Me (Caribou Remix):  Get in on that min tech pop level.

Kool A.D. - Damien Hirst (fet. MondreM.A.N. & Dope G) (prod. by Young L)
Kool A.D. - Manny Pacquiao:  My 2 faves from the '51' release.

Koreless - Lost in Tokyo (Jacques Greene Remix):  I really really realy can't say no to the J.G., and neither should you.

Mloski - Hair Above Me
Mloski - Just The Way It Is:  Labyrinth offers a few slabs of great downtempo bass jams with all of the uplifitng pads and chopped samples the kids really go for.

Ricardo Donoso - Equivalence of the Thirteen
Ricardo Donoso - The Bow and the Lyre:  If I ever hear the genre name "trance", I hope to god it always refers to the methodical plodding brilliance of Assimilating the Shadow.  This album is electro trance in it's purest incarnation.  There is no drop.  There is no time.  There is only this.  Recommended.
