But to make it so tender and sparse? Oh just perfect.<br /><br /><b>B. Dolan </b>- Film The Police ft Toki Wright & Jasiri X: The video is a MUST SEE, but here's a timely topical tale for the kiddies.<br /><br /><b>B.o.B</b> - High Life <br /><b>B.o.B</b> - Play The Guitar ft <b>Andre 3000</b>: Total poprap in the vein of Outkast, but devilishy addictive.<br /><br /><b>Cloud Nothings </b>- Stay Useless: New album Attack On Memory out now! can't wait to hear the whole thing.<br /><br /><b>Drake </b>- Over My Dead Body (<b>Star Slinger </b>Remix): Not a Drake fun, but holyfuck am I ever a Star Slinger fan. Yes!<br /><br /><b>Horsepower Productions </b>- Rain: Yes, let's all just pretend that that brostep thing never happened. After 2008, dubstep split in to chill dubstep, post-dubstep, and Ponystep, and THAT'S IT.<br /><br /><b>Klimek </b>- Rimani Tu ft <b>Marta Collica</b>: Movies Is Magic (Extended Version) isn't actually an extended release of Movies Is Magic, it's a b/side remix album and it rather pales to the original. But this song has some little magic working on it.<br /><br /><b>Pavel Dovgal </b>- Document: From the 2010 Cassiopeia, I need a steady diet of crisp-snared breakbeats.<br /><br /><b>Radiohead </b>- Bloom (<b>Objekt </b>RMX)<br /><b>Radiohead </b>- Separator (<b>Four Tet </b>RMX): It's OK, it's an open secret: Most radiohead remixes really suck. And there were a bajillion for the last album. And most sucked. Here are 2 that rose above the froth.<br /><br /><b>Rhythm & Sound </b>- Let We Go (<b>Villalobos </b>Remix): Speaking of sucking: it is also something that Villabos seldom does. Witness the awesome jazzy minimalism, the jangling framework, the crushing realization that every moment you've spent listening to electrohouse has been wasted...<br /><br /><b>Richard Buckner </b>- Traitor: I am still absorbing the new full length, Our Blood, but this single is so sweet.<br /><br /><b>Rockwell </b>- Full Circle: IDM clicks in a DnB framework, pretty slick.<br /><br /><b>The Photographic </b>- Secure (<b>Amtrac </b>Remix): This reminds me of those remixes of Steve Reich tracks. Shades of Different Trains going on here? Either way, uplifting electro.<br /><br /><b>The Temper Trap </b>- Fader: Closing off with some radiofriendly pop fun. Good night!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Ana Caravelle - Avril 14 (Aphex Twin cover)<br />B. Dolan - Film The Police ft Toki Wright & Jasiri X<br />B.o.B - High Life <br />B.o.B - Play The Guitar ft Andre 3000<br />Cloud Nothings - Stay Useless<br />Drake - Over My Dead Body (Star Slinger Remix)<br />Horsepower Productions - Rain<br />Klimek - Rimani Tu ft Marta Collica<br />Pavel Dovgal - Document<br />Radiohead - Bloom (Objekt RMX)<br />Radiohead - Separator (Four Tet RMX)<br />Rhythm & Sound - Let We Go (Villalobos Remix)<br />Richard Buckner - Traitor<br />Rockwell - Full Circle<br />The Photographic - Secure (Amtrac Remix)<br />The Temper Trap - Fader<br /><br /><br />I can still see the sun, I can still see it just there: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20120130.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20120130.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/DJCPI">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-1719721932853798540?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-2826524807468664222012-01-25T21:23:00.000-05:002012-01-25T21:23:07.881-05:00MP3 blog 2012/01/25blog 2012/01/25 - we have vague recollections about what just happened.<br /><br />THIS WEEKEND, Q-BOUNCE BEGINS! Exciting, right? <br />Well hey, I think so. It will kinda sorta be all kinds of awesome.<br />You should come. <a href="http://www.facebook.com/events/265886433468691/">http://www.facebook.com/events/265886433468691/</a><br />Join us at <a href="http://q-bounce.ca/">http://q-bounce.ca</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Chase & Status </b>- Time (<b>Paces </b>Remix)<br /><b>Diana Ross </b>- Love Hangover (<b>Paces </b>Remix)<br /><b>Gossip </b>- Standing In The Way Of Control (<b>Paces </b>Remix): Ravey Chase & Status brought down to RnB sway. Dianna Ross given a 21st century bass workout. Gossip gone grindy. I don't know this Paces person is, but I like their pixie juice.<br /><br /><b>Do Nascimiento </b>- Bcicletta<br /><b>Do Nascimiento </b>- Cucchiaino: Shockingly good. Short sweet self-titled Spanish release, like a modern day Team Dresch meets Fugazi. Highly recommended for fans of epicly good punk rock.<br /><br /><b>Jonwayne </b>- Andrew: Off the record simply titled Bowser, this is my favourite of the Nintendo influenced breaks.<br /><br /><b>Lou Canon </b>- Close To Me (<b>The Cure </b>cover): The karaoke classic gets another treatment, and yet I still want more.<br /><br /><b>Metermaids </b>- Theory 77 ft <b>Sage Francis & B. Dolan </b>(<b>Bad Things </b>Remix): Fabulous track off Strange Famous Records, featuring everything you'd want and expect. Wonderful.<br /><br /><b>Nosaj Thing </b>- Us (<b>Dntel </b>Remix): Perfectly smooth. From the Drift Remixed album.<br /><br /><b>SBTRKT </b>- Trials Of The Past: On the topic of SMOOOTH, sbtrkt kicks out the jams, and here even gets poppy.<br /><br /><b>School of Seven Bells </b>- The Night: New SOSB! Love it, can't wait to hear the whole album.<br /><br /><b>Shugo Tokumaru </b>- Rum Hee (<b>Deerhoof </b>Remix): Blog favourite Tokumaru gets a rework that takes a great song and makes it even more fun.<br /><br /><b>Silver Dapple </b>- Want To: On the same list as Wild Flag for a reason! This is that post Dresch/Kinney hangover that I always wanted to have. From the new album English Girlfriend.<br /><br /><b>The Antlers </b>- VCR (<b>The xx </b>cover): A classic group of gents covering a classic track from a now classic album. Thumbs up.<br /><br /><b>The Field </b>- Arpeggiated Love: I don't get the slathering love for The Field. But each album does produce a few stellar tunes, and this is my fave from 2011's Looping State Of Mind.<br /><br /><b>The Silent Signals </b>- Spark: Something a bit American Idol about this one, but I love it all the same. I hope the Glee cast covers it.<br /><br /><b>The White Stripes </b>- In The Cold, Cold Night ft <b>2Pac, Biggie, Big L </b>(<b>Voodoo Farm </b>Remix): I am oh so wary of mashes but alas this one wins me over.<br /><br /><b>Ugly Casanova </b>- 180 Degrees South: Ahhh remember the Pixies?<br /><b><br />Wild Flag </b>- Romance: Ahhh remember the Sleater-Kinney? Yeah, I do. And Wild Flag just don't cut it for me. Alas...<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Chase & Status - Time (Paces Remix)<br />Diana Ross - Love Hangover (Paces Remix)<br />Do Nascimiento - Bcicletta<br />Do Nascimiento - Cucchiaino<br />Gossip - Standing In The Way Of Control (Paces Remix)<br />Jonwayne - Andrew<br />Lou Canon - Close To Me (The Cure cover)<br />Metermaids - Theory 77 ft Sage Francis & B.

I think it's great, just not best-of material. But what do I know. Here's some of the ravey hotness.<br /><br /><b>Beastie Boys </b>- So Whatcha Want (<b>Cheapshot </b>Remix): The Beasties have always kind of annoyed me because of their stinginess in releasing instrumentals. WTF is up with that? Don't want anyone using your sampled riffs? ANYWAYS, the gap is lessened by the plethora of dope remixes. Like this one, digging in that 90s vault.<br /><br /><b>Big Tree </b>- Seattle Bound<br /><b>Big Tree </b>- The Concurrence of All Things: From the new album This New Year comes a rock/twee/folk convergence of grinnitude levels.<br /><br /><b>Demdike Stare </b>- Violetta: The "Elemental - Parts 1 & 2: Crysanthe" is one of my favourite Demdike Stare releases because it feels expansive without being at all exhausting. I love heavily textured and abstracted electronic music albums. This one falls more towards the fence of post-raver-flameout than total-Mego-ness, and so ends up surprisingly approachable. Recommended!<br /><br /><b>Enduser & Architect </b>- Decision (Late)<br /><b>Enduser & Karsten Pflum </b>- A Little While: Enduser's been doing the mutant D&B thing for years and has really put best feet forward with Even Weight. Amazing production values, intruiging guests, lots of variation and great moods. If you wished 90s Amon Tobin continued more with the mainstream D&B threads (without the blandness normally associated with a typical D&B record...), this record is for you.<br /><br /><b>Gigamesh </b>- So Intense (<b>Fare Soldi Enrico Pallazzo </b>Remix): Nu-disco is jiving all over the world. JAZZ HANDS!<br /><br /><b>Jacaszek </b>- Dare-Gale<br /><b>Jacaszek </b>- Evening Strains To Be Time's Vast: Glimmer is mesmerizing and fabulous. Had I heard it in 2011, it would have been on my best of lists. Highly recommended.<br /><br /><b>Jen Titus </b>- O'Death: I first heard this song in the (amazing) doc Harlem County USA. And it's respectabley reprised here.<br /><br /><b>Parenthetical Girls </b>- Don't Give Up: Fabulous little track from Demos for the Dreaming.<br /><br /><b>The Weeknd </b>- Dirty Diana (<b>Michael Jackson </b>cover)<br /><b>The Weeknd </b>- Initiation: THIS WAS MEANT TO HAPPEN. I can't think of a better take on MJ. And while I still find much of the Weeknd output too douchey for my ears, these 2 tracks are golden. <br /><br /><b>xxxy </b>- Ordinary Things: Just some sweet little groovebass.<br /><br /><b>Yelawolf </b>- Hard White (Up In The Club) ft <b>Lil' Jon</b>: Can't help it, just love that beat...<br /><br /><b>Zed Bias </b>- Neighbourhood 09 ft <b>McRumpus </b>and <b>Nicky Prince </b>(<b>Roska </b>Remix): And finish it off with some more groovebass goodness. Shmexxy.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />1,2,3 - Work<br />Araabmuzik - Streetz Tonight<br />Beastie Boys - So Whatcha Want (Cheapshot Remix)<br />Big Tree - Seattle Bound<br />Big Tree - The Concurrence of All Things<br />Demdike Stare - Violetta<br />Enduser & Architect - Decision (Late)<br />Enduser & Karsten Pflum - A Little While<br />Gigamesh - So Intense (Fare Soldi Enrico Pallazzo Remix)<br />Jacaszek - Dare-Gale<br />Jacaszek - Evening Strains To Be Time's Vast<br />Jen Titus - O'Death<br />Parenthetical Girls - Don't Give Up<br />The Weeknd - Dirty Diana (Michael Jackson cover)<br />The Weeknd - Initiation<br />xxxy - Ordinary Things<br />Yelawolf - Hard White (Up In The Club) ft Lil' Jon<br />Zed Bias - Neighbourhood 09 ft McRumpus and Nicky Prince (Roska remix)<br /><br /><br />Oh you've been a good puppy: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20120119.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20120119.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/DJCPI">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-6784027296030249507?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-15265533505759463842012-01-16T23:00:00.000-05:002012-01-16T23:00:05.060-05:00MP3 blog 2012/01/16blog 2012/01/16 - stare forward and concentrate until you see the light<br /><br /><b>Action Bronson & Statik Selektah </b>- Not Enough Words: Always have more room on my plate for some Action Bronson ish. From the new record Well-Done.<br /><br /><b>Baby Sol </b>- No No: So straightforward as to almost be adult contemporary, there are some simple pleasures to be had here.<br /><br /><b>Cuff The Duke </b>- Always Looking (<b>Dum Dum Girls </b>cover): I think I even like this more than the Dum Dum Girls version. The twang suits it really well.<br /><br /><b>Esben And The Witch </b>- Skeleton Swoon (<b>Worriedaboutsatan </b>Remix): Woah there, some gorgeous heavy magic going on here twisting around with my libido...<br /><br /><b>Hidden Orchestra </b>- Dust (<b>Floex </b>Remix)<br /><b>Hidden Orchestra </b>- Flight: Lush and enchanting, these tracks fuse some of the favourite smoothjazz Ninja Tune sounds with Ulrich Schnauss production values. So so so good.<br /><br /><b>Jerreau (of Fly Union)</b> - Dreams BankReau Can Buy: Fricking smooooooth.<br /><br /><b>John Zorn </b>- Dance of Albion: Zorn has been making some sweet straight-ahead pleasant jazz these days. And by "some", I mean "mountains". But considering his total output, there's still mountains of scronk for everyone else. I seriously think he doesn't sleep. Someone check on him, make sure he's ok... At the Gates of Paradise is smoothjazz wonderful.<br /><br /><b>Junior Boys </b>- Banana Ripple: My main problem with Junior Boys is that the best parts of their songs could be reduced to a 4 minute track, but ah well. They're output isn't mostly for me, but this one is hard to shrug at. Go ahead, try. See? No shrugs. You can't do it. Unshruggable. The pop, she is too epic.<br /><br /><b>Justice </b>- On'n'on: Yeah, I'm as shocked that I like a Justice pop song just as much as you are. Let's never mention this again and move on.<br /><br /><b>Owl Service </b>- Fine Horseman (full version)<br /><b>Owl Service </b>- When a Man's in Love: I had been listening to The Pattern Beneath the Plow off and on for months. It's a little bit WTF. Dark and shimmering folk music that you expect to be delivered from darkage bards. It's a sprawling double CD set that might even give Joanna Newsom fans pause. But it's totally hypnotic and worth just letting yourself be at it's mercy. <br /><br /><b>Rich Aucoin </b>- All You Cannot Live Without: Aucoin gives us that refined ecstatic Canadian pop music that you know you love.

No, seriously.<br />On the 28th, Q-BOUNCE premiers! I'll be spinning before and after the always-amazing Rae Spoon.<br />Get the details here:<br /><br /><br /><br />Now, on to the music!<br /><br /><b>A Tribe Called Red </b>- Electric Pow Wow Drum: The first of a number of tracks in this update representing some hotness from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. ATCR throws down some awesome parties, and here they drop this amazing beat.<br /><br /><b>Adam Saikaley </b>- St. Andrews Church: There was an interesting project called Polytectures where Ottawa buildings' architecture was discussed, and music set to them by various local musicians. While the concept was often more interesting than the musical output, there were a number of gems in that project. Local wunderkind Saikaley of course being one of those highlights.<br /><br /><b>Charles Bradley </b>- Heartaches and Pain<br /><b>Charles Bradley & The Menahan Street Band </b>- Stay Away (<b>Nirvana </b>cover): While dude kind of reminds us all of James Brown while being simultaneously uber-religious and hungover from PCP, he's got a glorious voice. And covering Nirvana? Woah.<br /><br /><b>CHLLNGR </b>- Ask For (<b>Cubic Zirconia </b>Remix)<br /><b>CHLLNGR </b>- Haven : Bouncing chill beautiful beats that are oh yes yes yes wonderful.<br /><br /><b>Heems </b>- New York City Cops (<b>The Strokes </b>cover): Yes, a Strokes cover, but oh Heems makes this his own. One of my favourite things out of the Das Racist crew in a while. Love the noisey El-P -ish beat. Is it him/<br /><br /><b>Julianna Barwick </b>- Vow (Diplo & Lunice remix): Echoey ambient vocals! Mixed by a beatmaster! Yes it works. And it works well.<br /><br /><b>Kool Krys </b>- Let Me Play It<br /><b>Philly Moves </b>- Life Is Grand: 2 tracks taken from the 613 House Of Paint sampler!<br /><br /><b>Megafaun </b>- Hope You Know<br /><b>Megafaun </b>- Real Slow: 2 otherworldly country/folk songs from the self-titled album. I didn't like the whole thing, but these ones are gems.<br /><br /><b>Ólafur Arnalds </b>- Lag Fyrir Ömmu<br /><b>Ólafur Arnalds </b>- Near Light: Quiet piano-based IDM/ambient stuff is a huge weak-spot on my heart. From the new album Living Room Songs.<br /><br /><b>Sleeper Agent </b>- Get Burned: Totally rockin' driving music powerpop fun.<br /><br /><b>Sunn O))) meets Nurse With Wound </b>- Ra At Dawn Part I {Rapture, At Last}: The new collab album The Iron Soul Of Nothing isn't getting a huge wave of interest, but for fans of either it is pretty much a definitive purchase. You know you want to.<br /><br /><b>Your Infamous Harp </b>- Fading Star: Probably my favourite track from 2010's Forever Transient.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />A Tribe Called Red - Electric Pow Wow Drum<br />Adam Saikaley - St. Andrews Church<br />Charles Bradley - Heartaches and Pain<br />Charles Bradley & The Menahan Street Band - Stay Away (Nirvana cover)<br />CHLLNGR - Ask For (Cubic Zirconia Remix)<br />CHLLNGR - Haven <br />Heems - New York City Cops (The Strokes cover)<br />Julianna Barwick - Vow (Diplo & Lunice remix)<br />Kool Krys - Let Me Play It<br />Megafaun - Hope You Know<br />Megafaun - Real slow<br />Ólafur Arnalds - Lag Fyrir Ömmu<br />Ólafur Arnalds - Near Light<br />Philly Moves - Life Is Grand<br />Sleeper Agent - Get Burned<br />Sunn O))) meets Nurse With Wound - Ra At Dawn Part I {Rapture, At Last}<br />Your Infamous Harp - Fading Star<br /><br /><br />These are my hands and this is the situation and it's all downhill from

Wooot!<br /><br />Experimental, contemporary instrumental, noise, classical, it's all here! Why? Well I generally listen to this stuff in a way separate from most pop music (i.e. contemporary song structure, usually with vocals). Instead of focusing on genres, I am all about categorizing music on the CONTEXTS IN WHICH I UTILIZE IT.<br /><br />For example:<br />Dance music and hiphop: For the most part, I utilize these genres as a DJ and am purging mercilessly, which is why a lot of it does not make my best-of-2011, which focuses on COHESIVE ALBUMS. Often my favourites will just get played at my gigs.<br />Pop music: general listening, particularly in the car.<br />Experimental/instrumental: I usually listehn to this stuff alone (because my wife's not too in to it,) and often with more specific focus.<br /><br />I have assembled the playlist file in the post to descend from my favouritest, down.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>CAITLYN'S FAVOURITE INSTRUMENTAL / EXPERIMENTAL ALBUMS OF 2011!!!!!!!!</b></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;">1) Colin Stetson - New History Warfare Vol. 2; Judges<br />2) Vladislav Delay Quartet - Debut<br />3) Maps And Diagrams - The Town Beneath The Sea<br />4) Yo-Yo Ma, Stuart Duncan, Edgar Meyer, Chris Thile - The Goat Rodeo Sessions<br />5) Fourcolor - As Pleat<br />6) Deaf Center - Owl and Splinters<br />7) Balam Acab - Wander Wonder<br />8) RxRy - A (Alpha)<br />9) Ø - Heijastuva<br />10) Kronos Quartet, Kimmo Pohjonen & Samuli Kosminen - Uniko<br />11) Kid Koala - Space Cadet<br />12) Jim O'Rourke - Old News #5<br />13) VA - Tasogare Live in Tokyo<br />14) Natural Snow Buildings - Chants Of Niflheim<br />15) Daniel Menche - Feral<br />16) Field Rotation - Regenzeit 10<br />17) Taylor Deupree & Marcus Fischer - In A Place Of Such Graceful Shapes<br />18) Cut Hands - Afro Noise 1<br />19) Demian Johnston & Kevin Gan Yuen - Keep Your Hands<br />20) Stephan Mathieu - A Static Place<br />21) Stephan Mathieu - Remain<br />22) Gianlucca Becuzzi - [In]visible Fields (2 CD)<br />23) Reve Steich - Stunning for 18 Miles<br />24) Being - Quiet Rain<br />25) Vampillia - Alchemic Heart<br />26) Bellows - Handcut<br />27) Valerio Tricoli & Thomas Ankersmit - Forma II<br />28) Loscil - Coast; Range; Arc<br />29) Julianna Barwick - The Magic Place<br />30) Earth - Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light I</span><br /><br />AND YES, the playlist is like 6 hours long.

They are positively cascading away from me. All downhill from here… Are you reading this?<br />I'm doing things slightly different now. A few changes this year: I am only going to bother with the top 40 albums. Not 50.<br />I am not going to bother with listing my favourite mixtapes (because obviously they are the ones I made), nor best EPs nor reissues. I will still post a selection of my favourite experimental records.<br />I will write less about the albums. I will write more about myself. I will offer a schedule.<br />Dec 07: this.<br />Dec 08: best of instrumental & experimental<br />Dec 12: BO2011: 40-21<br />Dec 13: BO2011: 20-1<br />Dec 15: annual holiday music post<br /><br /><br /><br />So what did I accomplish this year?<br />I spent most of my time on the Chosen Families series and am incredibly proud of them. Download them ASAP if you have not already…<br />The development of my "dreamer beats" aesthetic has resulted in mixes that are very rewarding for me. They are their own little worlds that span genres and conventions, but give me the emotional hooks I am looking for. All the while being as smooth as possible.<br /><a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/2011/05/cpi-directions-to-my-special-place.html">CPI - Directions To My Special Place (chosen families 1)</a><br /><a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/2011/09/cpi-glittering-waiting-chosen-families.html">CPI - Glittering, Waiting (chosen families 2)</a><br /><a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/2011/09/cpi-always-more-than-this-chosen.html">CPI - Always More Than This (chosen families 3)</a><br /><a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/2011/12/cpi-oh-glorious-perversions-chosen.html">CPI - Oh, Glorious Perversions (chosen families 4)</a><br />Combine that with last year's <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/2010/09/cpi-moonchild-in-memoriam.html">Moonchild (in memoriam)</a> and you have over 7 hours of musical mixes that you probably can't find anywhere else. If there's anyone else doing this, I'd love to know because I would want people making stuff like this for me.<br /><br />I released <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/2011/09/lesbians-on-ecstasy-she-likes-to-party.html">a new single by Lesbians On Ecstasy</a> featuring bounce sensation Big Freedia, including my own DJ edit of it. Check the video and get the MP3s.<br /><br />I have an art book collection which you can browse over at <a href="http://www.librarything.com/profile/cpi23">Librarything</a>, I just set up my profile there this year. I like to get my books as cheap as possible though, so to assist I created a new tool.<br /><a href="http://amazondeals.ca/">Amazon Used Deals Finder</a> scans anyone's wishlist and finds the best deals on it, and as well tracks historical trends in an item's used price.<br />It's pretty damn cool, even if like my mixes, I have no idea how to promote it and get it in to the hands of those who need it.<br />But that is how I work: focus on a project, make it as best I can, dump it online to be obscured by the sheer volume of the internet and then move on to the next.<br /><br />I set up a lot of different sites. Like <a href="http://caitlynpascal.com/">http://caitlynpascal.com</a> for starters. I also got on <a href="http://twitter.com/#%21/DJCPI">twitter </a>at and <a href="http://djcpi.tumblr.com/">tumblr</a>.<br /><br />In Ottawa, in collaboration with Ad-ver-sary, I started a new noise & experimental performance series called <a href="http://pitchblacknoise.ca/">Pitch Black</a>. Check us out at <a href="http://pitchblacknoise.ca/">http://PitchBlackNoise.ca</a> if you are in to weird sounds and/or want to perform for us.<br />My jadedness about queer clubs/DJs in Ottawa boiled over and I decided fuck it, I'm starting my own. It will be called <a href="http://q-bounce.ca/">Q-Bounce</a> and shall debut in January. QUEER BASS UNDERGROUND. <a href="http://q-bounce.ca/">Http://q-bounce.ca</a> to get on board for that. CPI favourite <a href="http://www.raespoon.com/">Rae Spoon </a>will be performing at the opening night.<br />I also still run an LGBT-focused underground documentary series called <a href="http://divergencemovienight.com/">Divergence Movie Night</a>, <a href="http://divergencemovienight.com/">http://DivergenceMovieNight.com </a>and we just finished our SIXTH YEAR.<br />Q-Bounce will be a joint fundraiser for Divergence Movie Night and the amazing people at the <a href="http://venusenvy.ca/Ottawa/bursary">Venus Envy Bursary Fund</a>. Pitch Black and Q-Bounce will be quarterly. For the next year or two I will probably move DMN to being bimonthly, just so I can fit it all in sanely.<br /><br />I had the magical opportunity to score a new sound-piece for contemporary dancer Lana Morton. It debuted in May.<br /><br />Posted <a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=7886674923">63 mp3 blogs</a>.<br />Uploaded a bunch of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/cpi23#p/u">youtube videos</a>.<br />We had 11 <a href="http://divergencemovienight.com/">Divergence Movie Night </a>screenings.<br />Curated <a href="http://caitlynpascal.com/?page_id=31">2 art shows.</a><br /><br /><br /><br />THE FUTURE<br /><br />There is just SO MUCH MUSIC nowadays, it's pretty foolish to think you can ever be on top of it.<br />This year I spent most of my time listening to new music, let's say a few hundred albums from 2011, and still there are tonnes of BEST OF lists out there with albums I have never heard.<br />I found a crapload of amazing music. And that also means there is also a crapload of amazing music out there that I didn't hear.<br />It is exciting! And terrifying!<br />Every once in a while I feel I have to abdicate some internal desire to check out everything that people hold high and exclaim about. Every once in a while I have to remember to go back and listen to records that didn't just come out this year.<br />My joy received from hearing great music must be tempered by the realization that there is far more amazing music out there than I will ever properly consume. That the vastness of talent out there is well beyond my grasp. That I barely even listen to classical genres, that I barely watch any contemporary dance! The world spins fantastically.<br />Back in the pre-Internet days, the music world consisted of what the 2 or 3 awesome records shops had stocked and what ended up on traded mixtapes you dubbed. It seemed much more containable. You felt like you could hold it in your hands if you tried hard enough.<br />I want to feel more content with the reality that I am just scraping the surface, to just be happy with that, and enjoy that small amount with as much prescience (and fidelity!) as I can reasonably accommodate.<br /><br />I do not know how much longer I will continue doing this blog. I am not really sure if a significant number of my friends use it at all. Every day 10 new music blogs spring up by people who know how to wite and have more time on their hands.<br />Even if sometimes I feel like a mid-size fish, the world is a gigantic pond, and so it can feel discouraging to continue. Do people still download these? Do I still bring anything to the table?<br /><br /><br /><br />ALL I ASK<br />If I can ask for one holiday gift, please just pass my new mixes along to whomever might enjoy them. I put a lot of work in to them.<br />If you can write about them, or know someone that can, please please please any press is great. No blogs write about my mixes. The internet is a deafening silence.<br /><br />The blogs are filled with mixes that just don't interest me. Bleeding-edge tracklists that aren't interesting and shoddy mixing. Poorly thought-out transitions and massive key clashes abound.<br />I feel like I've produced something worthwhile. The music world reflection tells me otherwise.<br />I've written to over a hundred music blogs in the past, but no replies. There are thousands of people flogging their unheard masterpieces out there.<br /><br />If you can signal boost, in any capacity, it would be greatly appreciated.<br /><br />At the very least, I am going to keep working on my mixes since in the end I make them for me and me alone. I got addicted to the joy of having other people love them too, and it is a harsh crash when expectations aren't met.<br />I will continue to work on producing local events here for my communities. At least with that the change can feel palpable. I'm not the anonymous millions on the internet flogging their toss-off mixes, I am actually doing real things with real people. <br />Real movement, real smiles.<br /><br />Thanks for sticking with me for so long. Let's see what 2012 has in store.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-311644677710755879?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-15324033836047111142011-12-06T22:21:00.000-05:002011-12-06T22:21:15.432-05:00MP3 blog 2011/12/06blog 2011/12/06 - the end slithers in and we barely notice<br /><br />This is it, people.

Seriously good.<br /><br /><b>Jeffrey Lewis </b>- I Got Lost<br /><b>Jeffrey Lewis </b>- Time Trades: A Turn in the Dream-Songs might not grace the best of 2011 lists, but oh it deserves a listen from everone. There are quaint hypnotic nuggests of truth to be had. And for those that need him and for whose lives will be changed, Jeffrey Lewis will be essential.<br /><br /><b>MC Chris </b>- MC Chris Is Back ft <b>Jesse Dangerously</b>: Race Wars has some absurdly amusing skits, but the star of the show here is really the guest appearance by one Jesse Dangerously stealing the show and then not giving it back.<br /><br /><b>Nicolas Jaar </b>- Don't Break My Love: New single from Jaar to melt minds and somehow increase global sales of beanbag chairs. So amazing.<br /><br /><b>Radical Face </b>- Always Gold: Total pop action!<br /><br /><b>Sandro Perri </b>- How Will I?: Impossible Spaces is sprawling and haunting, like a proggier Bill Callahan meets a less-sleazy Toro Y Mori. Highly recommended.<br /><br /><b>Sepalcure </b>- See Me Feel Me: Finally, the post-dubstep generation rediscovers the horror that is Tommy!<br /><br /><b>Silver Swans </b>- Secrets (<b>Number Stations </b>Remix): The pop layer was perfect enough as it in, but hey, let's dump the drugs all over it and we got ourselves a new kind of party!<br /><br /><b>Slyy </b>- Booze Crooze: The scene is the members of Stomp are in a bar, one thing leads to another...<br /><br /><b>The National </b>- Think You Can Wait: Amazing track from the Exile Vilify single.

It is more of a focus on emotional content, psychological meaning and production minutiae of the tracks than it is about the genres, which range from dubstep to witch house to idm to folk to breakbeats to dreamwave to rock to downtempo to whatever else.<br /><br /><strong>Please share this far and wide, post on blogs, email out, etc etc etc.</strong><br />This concludes the Chosen Families series and is the final release of 2011! Stay tuned for "best of 2011" and the annual holiday music posts....</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-553899100601867751?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-60149292609812720712011-11-29T20:38:00.000-05:002011-11-29T20:38:16.427-05:00MP3 blog 2011/11/29blog 2011/11/29 - navigating the dusk and the promises we all want to keep.<br /><br /><br />BIG NEWS PEOPLE.

Super modern bass under BOC classics. SO FUCKING GOOD.<br /><br /><b>City of Glass </b>- Tourist: Shades of U2 perhaps? From the new The Diving Bell EP.<br /><br /><b>Cloud Nothings </b>- No Future, No Past: From Attack On Memory, this sounds like the normally upbeat Cloud Nothings took Japandroids, reduced them to a fine powder, and smoke them in a cigar.<br /><br /><b>Elbow </b>- Buffalo Ghosts: A b-side from the Open Arms single, this is another slowburner that you have to really let wash over you.<br /><br /><b>Goldfrapp </b>- Rocket (Richard X One Zero Remix): Total shiny electropop experience. Strap on the mooboots and enter the future!<br /><br /><b>Jack Dixon </b>- Coconuts: Clicky dubby beats that often sound like they are on the verge of falling apart, but come together cohesively with a big smooth subbass lick.<br /><br /><b>Mates Of State </b>- Palomino: Another cut from that new Mountaintops record I haven't gotten around to listening to yet... exhaltation to make even M83 take notice.<br /><br /><b>Nicki Minaj </b>- Dopeman: While I normally skip over the mounds of new Nicki I couldn't help but check this track out, and lo and behold as suspected she flips the classic dopeman sample and oh I can't resist.<br /><br /><b>Nóra </b>- Opin fyrir morði: Uhhh so it's from the album "Er einhver að hlusta?" and yeah I have no idea what they are saying. oh Iceland!<br /><br /><b>Ripperton </b>- The Sandbox: Niwa blows always all expectations for Ripperton and is a producer's dream. So many fabulous ideas played with and you can just feel how much he enjoyed making this album.<br /><br /><b>Sheila D Yeah and TT The Artist </b>- Bad Bitches Drop It Low (<b>Slick Shoota </b>Remix): I normally don't both with the juke ish, but this one kind of rocks my soft spots.<br /><br /><b>The Wonder Years </b>- Coffee Eyes<br /><b>The Wonder Years </b>- My Life As A Pigeon: High school, is that you? "Suburbia I've Given You All and Now I'm Nothing" will make you feel like a kid again. In a good way and a bad way. Recommended!<br /><br /><b>Yamantaka // Sonic Titan </b>- Queens: YT//ST is at heart a pop album, but one that falls somewhere between Gang Gang Dance, The Boredoms and Bat For Lashes. and yes, there is quite an amazing chasm there! Highly recommended.<br /><br /><b>Yo-Yo Ma, Stuart Duncan, Edgar Meyer, Chris Thile </b>- Attaboy<br /><b>Yo-Yo Ma, Stuart Duncan, Edgar Meyer, Chris Thile </b>- Helping Hand: Staggeringly addictive Americana classical that will have you running out and buying a new sound system and referring to it as your "hi-fi". Highly recommended!<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />A.Dd+ - Genocide<br />Beacon - No Body<br />Boards of Canada - Olson (Wrm remix)<br />City of Glass - Tourist<br />Cloud Nothings - No Future, No Past<br />Elbow - Buffalo Ghosts<br />Goldfrapp - Rocket (Richard X One Zero Remix)<br />Jack Dixon - Coconuts<br />Mates Of State - Palomino<br />Nicki Minaj - Dopeman<br />Nóra - Opin fyrir morði<br />Ripperton - The Sandbox<br />Sheila D Yeah and TT The Artist - Bad Bitches Drop It Low (Slick Shoota Remix)<br />The Wonder Years - Coffee Eyes<br />The Wonder Years - My Life As A Pigeon<br />Yamantaka // Sonic Titan - Queens<br />Yo-Yo Ma, Stuart Duncan, Edgar Meyer, Chris Thile - Attaboy<br />Yo-Yo Ma, Stuart Duncan, Edgar Meyer, Chris Thile - Helping Hand<br /><br /><br />Sail away from this place, there's no more damage to do: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111123.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111123.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/DJCPI">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-8234475824041885053?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-79426834305572952392011-11-18T20:56:00.000-05:002011-11-18T20:56:13.720-05:00MP3 blog 2011/11/18blog 2011/11/18 - this week all falls apart but we have a frame at least<br /><br />Yes yes, only 2 days since the last one, but omg there is just too much love in the world to stop now.<br /><br /><br /><b>Channel Live </b>- Mad Izm (<b>Cheapshot </b>Remix): Ahhh the KRS-One styleeeeeeeeeeeee. And the chimes and french horns. Yes.<br /><br /><b>Dilo </b>- An Iceberg And A Caribou (Sebastian Cohen Remix): Uplifting techy meandering form the 2009 Waheira release. So much stuff going on in this one.<br /><br /><b>DJ Shadow </b>- I've Been Trying (<b>Various </b>I'm Done Trying Mix): This ressurects that dark turn-of-century Ninja Tunes styles that made everyone's knees a bit wobbly. From the new album I Gotta Rokk, this is the saviour of it all.<br /><br /><b>Dominant Legs </b>- Where We Trip The Light: At first jangles you might think it is Vampire Weekend, BUT NO! You have made a terrible mistake. From the album Invitation.<br /><br /><b>Ellie Goulding </b>- The Writer (Live Acoustic Version): I love this song, it was a track that really grew on me from her full length. This one comes from the single of the same name, and any Tori Fan knows to mine the singles.<br /><br /><b>Gabriel Prokofiev </b>- String Quartet No. 2 (<b>Vex'd </b>Remix): Screw renditions of electronic tracks by classical musicians, we need more remixes of classical music by electronic musicians. <br /><br /><b>Guanaco ± </b>- Lepidoptera: From the new album Ardea Cinerea, gorgeous lush guitar work.<br /><br /><b>How To Dress Well </b>- Suicide Dream 2 (<b>Elite Gymnastics </b>Baptism): From "Just Once", Elite Gymnastics give us another taste of chillwave grooove.<br /><br /><b>Katie Kim </b>- 500 Miles (<b>The Pretenders </b>cover): Who'd have thought this song would sound so sensitive, so... NOT STALKERISH.<br /><br /><b>Lems </b>- Footsteps: Some fancy-pants piano breakbeats for breakfast.<br /><br /><b>Parenthetical Girls </b>- Sympathy For Spastics: They may not be for everyone's tastes, but oh I've taking a liking to the string of Privilege EPs. Now we have "Privilege, Pt. IV: Sympathy For Spastics" and it's just as wonderful. Recommended for anyone who likes their rock n roll done Cabaret style.<br /><br /><b>Rookie </b>- Azure: More smooth ninjabreak yumminess.<br /><br /><b>Sigur Rós </b>- Svefn-g-englar (live): Inni is a double-live collection. Yup, this is the moneyshot. If live albums are your thing, you can't really go wrong with the epicness of Sigur Rós. And if Sigur Rós are your thing, you can't really go wrong with this live album.<br /><br /><b>Summer Camp </b>- Ghost Train<br /><b>Summer Camp </b>- I Want You: Total cutesiepop with a dark evil edge.<br /><br /><b>Tropics </b>- Mouves (<b>Botany </b>Remix): The stutterbeat reminds me of Radiohead's latest album. Too bad those boys never got this sparkley.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Channel Live - Mad Izm (Cheapshot Remix)<br />Dilo - An Iceberg And A Caribou (Sebastian Cohen Remix)<br />DJ Shadow - I've Been Trying (Various I'm Done Trying Mix)<br />Dominant Legs - Where We Trip The Light<br />Ellie Goulding - The Writer (Live Acoustic Version)<br />Gabriel Prokofiev - String Quartet No. 2 (Vex'd Remix)<br />Guanaco ± - Lepidoptera<br />How To Dress Well - Suicide Dream 2 (Elite Gymnastics Baptism)<br />Katie Kim - 500 Miles (The Pretenders cover)<br />Lems - Footsteps<br />Parenthetical Girls - Sympathy For Spastics<br />Rookie - Azure<br />Sigur Rós - Svefn-g-englar (live)<br />Summer Camp - Ghost Train<br />Summer Camp - I Want You<br />Tropics - Mouves (Botany Remix)<br /><br /><br />The horizon extends all around me and it hurts: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111118.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111118.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/DJCPI">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-7942683430557295239?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-70237151099181628482011-11-16T15:53:00.000-05:002011-11-16T15:53:42.506-05:00MP3 blog 2011/11/16blog 2011/11/16 - blarrrgggh the infection, she is spreading!<br /><br /><br />I am oh so sicky today. Booooo.<br />But did I mention I am starting a quarterly queer dance party in Ottawa called Q-BOUNCE?<br />Join up at http://q-bounce.ca for further updates. QUEER BASS UNDERGROUND, and all that fun stuff.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>A$AP Rocky </b>- Out of This World: Super hypey rapper doesn't quite suck as everoyne wishes he did. More News at 11.<br /><br /><b>Amy Lee </b>- Halfway Down the Stairs (<b>The Muppets </b>cover)<br /><b>Rachael Yamagata </b>- I'm Going to Go Back There Someday (<b>The Muppets </b>cover)<br /><b>Weezer </b>- Rainbow Connection ft Hayley Williams (<b>The Muppets </b>cover): I'll save you the temptation. The Green Album is covers of Muppets classics by superstar adult contepmorary pop artists. These are the best Muppet songs, and thankfully the artists that do them don't entirely butcher them, even though the production is straight-up Imogen Heap. And if you can get by the bkacup vox on the Yamagata track sounding straight from a Glee soundtrack, it's one of the greatest emotional triggers ever.<br /><br /><b>Ane Brun </b>- Do You Remember: Yeah so here's the deal: If you don't like this song you just have no soul. Not in the "appropriating black culture" kind of way, but in the "omg you must be a spiritually devoid zombie beast" kind of way.<br /><br /><b>Bassnectar </b>- Teleport Massive (RJD2 Remix): The normally cold Bassnectar productions get some welcome warmth from breakbeat master RJD2. So good.<br /><br /><b>Carrousel </b>- 14: Appropriately swelling singer/songwriter goodness.<br /><br /><b>Gem Club </b>- Twins: Chris Garneau emotiveness with a tender instrumental section. From the new album Breakers.<br /><br /><b>GuMMy†Be_R! </b>- Cognitive Ascension: The new release TIME isn't so hot, but at least he hasn't abandoned his production aesthetic like so many of the other witchers. This track is pretty hot.<br /><br /><b>James Vincent McMorrow </b>- If I Had A Boat: OK, so maybe I have a thing for emo male voices this week.<br /><br /><b>Kid Koala </b>- Main Title Theme (Open Your Book)<br /><b>Kid Koala </b>- Speed of Light (Page 102): Making a soundtrack to your book, with page references? EXCELLENT IDEA. Making it one of the most tender instrumental records of the year? BESTEST IDEA. Highly recomended.<br /><br /><b>Lana Del Rey </b>- Video Games (<b>Jamie Woon </b>Remix): The original is a touch silly. but Woon works it in all the right ways.<br /><br /><b>Male Bonding </b>- Year's Not Long: The new album Nothing Hurts falls somewhere between Dinosaur Jr. and Japandroids, but with the muffed out garage fuzz that I can't quite fully love yet.<br /><br /><b>Pole </b>- Wipfel: Hey! Remember Pole? Oh come on, you remember Pole.... Remember back when Clicks N Cuts was a thing? No? *sigh* Oh you people. Well he's back with Waldgeschichten and those that know will enjoy.<br /><br /><b>St. Vincent And The National </b>- Sleep All Summer: Yeah some duets are just handed to us straight from the gods. srsly.<br /><br /><b>Sutekh </b>- Fire Weather: Evil dub minimal bass OK!<br /><br /><b>Warm Brew </b>- Nothin From Nothin: Feel good sunshine beats + rhymes for the dark days of November.<br /><br /><b>Zola Jesus </b>- Lick The Palm Of The Burning Handshake<br /><b>Zola Jesus </b>- Shivers: The new album Conatus doesn't quite do it for me like the last one. Alas. But I like these tracks.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />A$AP Rocky - Out of This World<br />Amy Lee - Halfway Down the Stairs (The Muppets cover)<br />Ane Brun - Do You Remember<br />Bassnectar - Teleport Massive (RJD2 Remix)<br />Carrousel - 14<br />Gem Club - Twins<br />GuMMy†Be_R! - Cognitive Ascension<br />James Vincent McMorrow - If I Had A Boat<br />Kid Koala - Main Title Theme (Open Your Book)<br />Kid Koala - Speed of Light (Page 102)<br />Lana Del Rey - Video Games (Jamie Woon Remix)<br />Male Bonding - Year's Not Long<br />Pole - Wipfel<br />Rachael Yamagata - I'm Going to Go Back There Someday (The Muppets cover)<br />St. Vincent And The National - Sleep All Summer<br />Sutekh - Fire Weather<br />Warm Brew - Nothin From Nothin<br />Weezer - Rainbow Connection ft Hayley Williams (The Muppets cover)<br />Zola Jesus - Lick The Palm Of The Burning Handshake<br />Zola Jesus - Shivers<br /><br /><br />This is all over with until next time: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111116.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111116.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/DJCPI">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-7023715109918162848?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-81248552365940928872011-11-08T20:04:00.000-05:002011-11-08T20:04:54.294-05:00MP3 blog 2011/11/08blog 2011/11/08 - sometimes its best to just enjoy your friend's dog and not get your own<br /><br /><b>Andy Stott </b>- Posers: Thumpmaster Andy is back with We Stay Together and yes, it is just as delicious as before. Highly recommended for all beatheads with a sinister streak.<br /><br /><b>Being </b>- Quiet Rain (<b>The Green Kingdom </b>Remix): Being's ambience is always lovely, and it's great to see it get the rhythmic beatwash approach as well. I hope they release more singles like this.<br /><br /><b>Christina Vantzou </b>- And Instantly Take Effect<br /><b>Christina Vantzou </b>- Small Choir: "No. 1" has lush ambience in that majestic Robert Rich kind fo way. A touch of newage synth, but more contemplative stuff that reminds me of the best of Being (see above!), with all of the lushness of organic instruments.<br /><br /><b>City of Satellites </b>- Machine Is My Animal (Tin Manzano Remix): Let's keep that mellow vibe and add a touch of gentle bass. A perfect little Sunday-morning coffee-and-snuggles jam.<br /><br /><b>Das Racist </b>- Michael Jackson<br /><b>Das Racist </b>- Shut Up, Man ft El-P<br /><b>Das Racist </b>- The Trick: YEAH THAT'S RIGHT. After the last few songs in this post, BOOM, MICHAEL JACKSON. Fucking abrasive. I wasn't in to this new single at first, but oh it grew on me. And people have been slagging on the first proper full length Relax, but damn it is super fun and has lots of great stuff going on in it. Fun is had! Guests are invited! Styles are flipped! <br /><br /><b>D-Jastic </b>- Up To No Good (<b>F^K Y3AH! Re-Bounce</b>): What, we can't say Fuck Yeah? And yes, I do love any song that drops classic breaks samples in to them.<br /><br /><b>Girls </b>- Forgiveness: "Father, Son, Holy Ghost" is an amazing new album. It has the songwriting of hangover-era Ween albums, earnest delivery of the early 90s, teenage melodrama and ummm.. gospel choirs! Perfect. Highly recommended.<br /><br /><b>Lanterns On The Lake </b>- Keep On Trying: Something about the sound of the creaking floorboards in this that just makes it oh so downhome wholesome. From Gracious Tide, Take Me Home.<br /><br /><b>Static </b>- Corazon, Cristal: Oh we are back in a section of the light and breezy. The singing and warmth synth reminds me fondly of Morr Music's later releases. From the new album Freedom Of Noise.<br /><br /><b>The Decemberists </b>- Burying Davy<br /><b>The Decemberists </b>- Row Jimmy: Newly release, "Long Live The King" EP follows The King Is Dead. While not essential for music fans as a whole, all Decemberist fans should get this. These aren't as polished, but still great songs.<br /><br /><b>Tom Waits </b>- Bad as Me<br /><b>Tom Waits </b>- Talking at the Same Time: BOW DOWN PEOPLE, "Bad as Me" IS OUT. Tom Waits, living deity. Get in line.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Andy Stott - Posers<br />Being - Quiet Rain (The Green Kingdom Remix)<br />Christina Vantzou - And Instantly Take Effect<br />Christina Vantzou - Small Choir<br />City of Satellites - Machine Is My Animal (Tin Manzano Remix)<br />Das Racist - Michael Jackson<br />Das Racist - Shut Up, Man ft El-P<br />Das Racist - The Trick<br />D-Jastic - Up To No Good (F^K Y3AH!

At least they're big on the acapella front. Like a sexed up James Blake with daddy issues and viagra?<br /><br /><b>Ambassadeurs </b>- Rossler: More sleazybeats, the sick depths of downtempo slink.<br /><br /><b>Angus and Julia Stone </b>- Big Jet Plane (<b>Stern Disco </b>Remix): Plodding electro pop for the Todd Terje fans out there.<br /><br /><b>Balam Acab </b>- Apart<br /><b>Balam Acab </b>- Motion: "Wander / Wonder" is the breakout album from the witchhouse scene. Incredibley satisfying, while not ditching much of what made the earlier singles magical. You'd expect something like this on Ninja Tune. Highly recommended.<br /><br /><b>D. Gookin </b>- Glad I Met You: Oh I'm giddy on the beats today! We drop the sleeze and pipe in some happyhappyjoyjoy synth bizness. People, never be afraid to raise the HANDCLAPS up in the mix!<br /><br /><b>Giraffage </b>- Moments: GIRAFFAGE. Use in a sentence? Oh man what a wild party last night, there was so much sexy giraffage going down at that party!<br /><br /><b>Goldmund </b>- Nihon: I love me some delicate piano, but even more I love it when they mic all of the creaks of the sustain pedals and squeaking seat.<br /><br /><b>King Britt & Sister Gertrude Morgan </b>- New World In My View: From the True Blood soundtrack. Don't hate me. Come on, who can resist sexy gay vampires having hot gay vampire sex?<br /><br /><b>Mikal Cronin </b>- Apathy: Woah, took us this long to arrive at some straight-up pop? hunh.<br /><br /><b>Orchestra of Spheres </b>- Hypercube: Amazing trancing percussion from Nonagonic Now.<br /><br /><b>Panic! At The Disco </b>- C'mon (Fade): Ben Folds pop core!<br /><br /><b>RAC </b>- 1979 ft <b>Liz Anjos </b>(<b>Smashing Pumpkins </b>cover): Oh come on, sure Corrigan is a douche but how can you resist this song? The vocalist reminds of a typical Happy Hardcore singer, but it all still works and yes I still love RAC.<br /><br /><b>St. Vincent </b>- These Days (<b>Nico </b>cover): oh *heart* *heart* *heart* *heart* *heart* *heart* *heart* *heart* <br /><br /><b>The Black Ghosts </b>- Water Will Find A Way: I wasn't all in to the new album "When Animals Stare", but this song is strictly-by-the-books radio hit in the waiting. And ummm wait, is that tuba? Someone get these kids to drop the xylophone and up the dubstep remixes.<br /><br /><b>The XX </b>- Insects (<b>Rodaidh </b>Mix): B-side remixe from the VCR single. Nothing new, but good enough for us salivating fangirls.<br /><br /><b>Tim Hecker </b>- Sketch 1: Dropped Pianos is a bit of a slump for Hecker, but grab it if you're a completist. <br /><br /><b>Tokyo Police Club </b>- All My Friends (<b>LCD Soundsystem </b>cover)<br /><b>Tokyo Police Club </b>- Sweetness ft <b>Michael Angelakos </b>of <b>Passion Pit </b>(<b>Jimmy Eat World </b>cover): TPC get jiggy with their 10x10x10 covers album. While they aren't all zingers, these two are classics. All My Friends is a perfect bittersweet anthem about adolescencent sentiment, and should probably be covered by every bad ever.

From the 2010 album Andasol.<br /><br /><b>Cut Hands </b>- Backlash: Holy shit awesome. If you loved Konono, Cut Hands tosses in more tribal ala The Boredoms and revs up the dronenoise on Afro Noise 1.<br /><br /><b>Dan Mangan </b>- Jeopardy<br /><b>Dan Mangan </b>- Post-War Blues<br /><b>Dan Mangan </b>- Starts With Them, Ends With Us: I didn't love a lot of his prior stuff, save a few songs, but Oh Fortune is new and super strong and recommended.<br /><br /><b>Elbow </b>- Open Arms (Live from St. Paul's Cathedral): GORGEOUS. From the Lippy Kids single.<br /><br /><b>Giraffage </b>- Polar Bear: Pumping IDM-esque bass music always get a thumbs up over here.<br /><br /><b>Hearts Revolution </b>- Teenage Teardrops (<b>Who Killed JR</b>'s Black Flash Remix): 80s handclaps and glitter dances all over your fucking face.<br /><br /><b>Jeffrey Lewis </b>- Cult Boyfriend: So fucking injokey, but oh it pulls all my heartstrings. *le swoon* I love this crazy little dork. From the new album A Turn In The Dream-Songs.<br /><br /><b>Katie Herzig </b>- Free My Mind: Just some more addictive pop from the new album The Waking Sleep.<br /><br /><b>Moon Boots </b>- Off My Mind (<b>Rogue Vogue </b>Remix): Jazzy/soulful house is on the comeback, and about time!<br /><br /><b>Neil Young </b>- After the Gold Rush (Live In Chicago 1992): Probably my favourite version of this song I've heard, off the brand new live album. From 1992. Yeah.<br /><br /><b>Oneohtrix Point Never </b>- Returnal (Voice by <b>Antony</b>): I'll listen to anything with Antony, and this mournful piece is perfect. Can you have imagined this ever happening? Yeah, and Fennesz is on the b-side. FUCKING AWESOME.<br /><br /><b>Soley </b>- Dance: The new album We Sink is full of that quirky indie sound.

There are a number of really great standouts for fans of pop-era Morr Music.<br /><br /><b>Automotive </b>- Khapoor<br /><b>Automotive </b>- Klezmer: Solid productions from the Khapoor EP, returns us to an error where the instruments and mood of a piece can really shine, like early Xploding Plastix and Amon Tobin. <br /><br /><b>Awesome Force </b>- Priglashenya (live)<br /><b>Deadbeatblast </b>- Chiptunes In Toronto Track 1 (live): I really wasn't expecting much. I sift through a tonne of muisc that I don't expect much from. But holy shit, Chiptunes In Toronto blew me away. This album has sets by these two artists and 8-bit synthesis is just beyond compare. Seriously addictive and highly recommended. <br /><br /><b>Class Actress </b>- Love Me Like You Used To<br /><b>Class Actress </b>- Weekend: Who likes pop? Who likes synths? Who likes a sweet chanteuse? Yes, Rapprocher is indeed for you. The album is bursting with pop goodness that will sound like a about-fricking-time Ladytron revival. Recommend for: bread baking kitchen dance parties.<br /><br /><b>Daniel Sex Jr</b>. - Debbie Zen: I love the clunking beats that remind me of my favourite Freescha tracks.<br /><br /><b>Danny Brown </b>- Brown Eyes: There's something kind of just messy about this track that is really appealing.<br /><br /><b>Eskmo </b>- Cloudlight: More post-Tobin cinematic clunky bass. Crank up that sub and get queasy!<br /><br /><b>John Denver </b>- Country Roads (<b>Pretty Lights </b>Remix): Little known fact: I am a big John Denver fan! Dude was sweet. While this song could do with being half the length, I'll take what I can get. Get down get busy. <br /><br /><b>Labyrinth Ear </b>- Amber: Lovely chilled out pop, drenched in layers of twinklesynth. Love love love.<br /><br /><b>St. Vincent </b>- Cruel: Another great single from Strange Mercy. I really have to go listen to the full thing one day soon...<br /><br /><b>The Belle Comedians </b>- Fewer Lights: From the whirled intro synth you know this will be earnest and ecstatic fun. From the new album Autumn Ought To...<br /><br /><b>The Horrors </b>- Changing The Rain<br /><b>The Horrors </b>- Still Life: Remember when I was kind of simultaneously blown away and overwhelmed by the last The Horrors album? No? Well I was. But this time they've toned down the edge and put out an incredible rock/pop record that still has some grit and flourish, but is totally digestible and should cross over in a big way. "Skying" will appeal to mopey brit rock fans and Canadian indieheads alike. Recommended!<br /><br /><b>Young Galaxy </b>- We Have Everything (<b>Blue Hawaii </b>Buh Buh Remix): Did I mention I loved Young Galaxy and their fabulous new album Shapeshifting? Well it's true, and lucky for me there is a number of excellent remixes out there.<br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Apparat - Goodbye<br />Apparat - Song Of Los<br />Automotive - Khapoor<br />Automotive - Klezmer<br />Awesome Force - Priglashenya (live)<br />Class Actress - Love Me Like You Used To<br />Class Actress - Weekend<br />Daniel Sex Jr. - Debbie Zen<br />Danny Brown - Brown Eyes<br />Deadbeatblast - Chiptunes In Toronto Track 1 (live)<br />Eskmo - Cloudlight<br />John Denver - Country Roads (Pretty Lights Remix)<br />Labyrinth Ear - Amber<br />St. Vincent - Cruel<br />The Belle Comedians - Fewer Lights<br />The Horrors - Changing The Rain<br />The Horrors - Still Life<br />Young Galaxy - We Have Everything (Blue Hawaii Buh Buh Remix)<br /><br /><br />There is always warmth in a fort full of blankets, damn the naysayers: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111021.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111021.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-683398020199390467?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-23560089871181664942011-10-17T20:58:00.000-04:002011-10-17T20:58:56.042-04:00MP3 blog 2011/10/17blog 2011/10/17 - raining and glazing and flowers beneath it all<br /><br /><b>Basti Grub </b>- African Gift: Groovey slowed down house beat with mellow horns and wonderful chants!<br /><br /><b>Carbon Based Lifeforms </b>- Arecibo: Who remembers Instinct Ambient back in the 90s? It was the druggged out technophile black sheep to the proggy and newage FAX Records CDs, and Carbon Based Lifeforms made some great sounds there. They are back with a new album, Twentythree!<br /><br /><b>Charlotte Gainsbourg </b>- Memoir<br /><b>Charlotte Gainsbourg </b>- Terrible Angels: The Terrible Angels EP is short and sweet with 2 great new tracks, 2 live ones.<br /><br /><b>Holy Other </b>- Touch (<b>Blood Diamonds </b>Remix): Chopped + screwed chillwave is the bestest!<br /><br /><b>James Blake </b>- Once We All Agree<br /><b>James Blake & Bon Iver </b>- Fall Creek Boys Choir: The new Enough Thunder EP is a bit meh, but I like these 2 tracks. First one is all subbass and piano. 2nd one is Bon Iver. Good enough.<br /><br /><b>Male Bonding </b>- Tame the Sun: I'm not a huge Male Bonding fan, but this track off the new Endless Now reminds of the more naive DGC-grunge era of the 90s and that makes me happy.<br /><br /><b>Mates Of State </b>- Maracas: After their awesome CRUSHES cover album earlier this year, it looks like the new full length Mountaintops should be here soon! This sounds great, and I'm excited for the album. <br /><br /><b>Midnight Conspiracy </b>- Discord (The Chaotic Good Remix): Harder electro house for that Daft Punky set.<br /><br /><b>Noah and the Whale </b>- Life Is Life<br /><b>Noah and the Whale </b>- The Line<br /><b>Noah and the Whale </b>- Tonight's the Kind of Night: The emotional roller coast ride in band form is back! Last Night on Earth doesn't blow me away, but it is certainly much more than I expected. I listened in to find the one song that I would love surrounded by some rubbish, but oh there are a handful of winners here.<br /><br /><b>The Drum </b>- Omar: Love the moody weezey beats! From the Heavy Liquid EP.<br /><br /><b>The Good Natured </b>- Wolves (<b>Crystal Fighters </b>Remix): This leads in well from the above track, then busts out with all sorts of Architecture In Helsinki-styled pop goodness. Love the pitched-up vox and the Hawaiin kitsch pads.<br /><br /><b>The Weather Station </b>- Everything I Saw: From the new album All Of It Was Mine, this is some dark traditional campfire folk for reals.<br /><br /><b>Unsub </b>- Afterglow<br /><b>Unsub </b>- Silk Button: Let's finish up with 2 very traditional dubstep tracks from the new Afterglow EP. Traditional in their structure and composition, but expertly executed, and given the tripe that has been busting up everywhere lately, this is totally refreshing.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Basti Grub - African Gift<br />Carbon Based Lifeforms - Arecibo<br />Charlotte Gainsbourg - Memoir<br />Charlotte Gainsbourg - Terrible Angels<br />Holy Other - Touch (Blood Diamonds Remix)<br />James Blake - Once We All Agree<br />James Blake & Bon Iver - Fall Creek Boys Choir<br />Male Bonding - Tame the Sun<br />Mates Of State - Maracas<br />Midnight Conspiracy - Discord (The Chaotic Good Remix)<br />Noah and the Whale - Life Is Life<br />Noah and the Whale - The Line<br />Noah and the Whale - Tonight's the Kind of Night<br />The Drum - Omar<br />The Good Natured - Wolves (Crystal Fighters Remix)<br />The Weather Station - Everything I Saw<br />Unsub - Afterglow<br />Unsub - Silk Button<br /><br /><br />We will always meet again: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111017.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111017.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-2356008987118166494?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-69554211975216797042011-10-13T19:20:00.000-04:002011-10-13T19:20:37.767-04:00MP3 blog 2011/10/13blog 2011/10/13 - off to Vermont tomorrow hurray!!<br /><br />A double-update week! Please excuse me but there was just a backlog of awesome to get to.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>AFX </b>- Quex-RD<br />Autechre - Skin Up You're Already Dead: Who would expect a split EP between these 2 appearning in 2011? And it being AWESOME? Fabulous.<br /><br /><b>Austra </b>- Lose It (<b>Young Galaxy </b>Remix): I've said it before and I'll say it again, I really think Young Galaxy should have got the Polaris shortlist over Austra. Blah. Anyways, kiss kiss and makeup, because you sound oh so beautiful together.<br /><br /><b>Brown Shoe </b>- Late Nights: From The Gift Horse, just let it build and get all good and epicy at the end.<br /><br /><b>Chromeo </b>- When The Night Falls (Hercules And Love Affair Remix): Hercules & Love Affair have had some misses, but they have some top-notch production funk going on here, and I'm not even a Chromeo fan.<br /><br /><b>Cults & Superhuman Happiness </b>- Um Canto de Afoxé para o Bloco d'Ilê: Cute little collab from Red Hot + Rio 2. Totally infectious. You just try and frown, Mr. Grumpsalot.<br /><br /><b>Drop Life </b>- Moon Shine: Beatsmiths are a dime-a-dozen in this laptop studio word, but I keep digging for the gems like this track.<br /><br /><b>Girls </b>- Vomit: New Girls! I wasn't a huge fan of the earlier stuff, but it seems like someone had a dark year. Like more morose Dinosaur Jr.<br /><br /><b>Kathryn Calder </b>- Who Are You: More fantastic pop, from the new album Bright And Vivid.<br /><br /><b>Magic Arm </b>- Outdoor Games: Sweet and lulling pop, from 2009's Make Lists Do Something.<br /><br /><b>Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire </b>- Huzzah! (Remix FT <b>Despot, Das Racist, Danny Brown & El-P</b>): Oh this is just so goofy. Hilarious and perfect.<br /><br /><b>Ohbijou </b>- Anser<br /><b>Ohbijou </b>- Sligo: New album Metal Meets is out now and it's as sweet and beautiful as you expected. Recommended!<br /><br /><b>RxRy </b>- Aertigo Lapsees: Off the Aertgo Lapsees single that apparently came out last year, but I just snagged it now. RxRy is an electronic music producer in fine form. Serve with the AFX/Autechre singles above....<br /><br /><b>St. Vincent </b>- Surgeon: I'm the first to admit I haven't loved anything she's done quite as much as her brilliant debut album, but I'm enjoying this new single from Strange Mercy, out now.<br /><br /><b>Star Slinger </b>- Dutchie Courage: And we close off with a sunshine bouncey bit of awesomeness, doing a fairly straight-ahead all-guns-bounce flip of the classic samples.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />AFX - Quex-RD<br />Austra - Lose It (Young Galaxy Remix)<br />Autechre - Skin Up You're Already Dead<br />Brown Shoe - Late Nights<br />Chromeo - When The Night Falls (Hercules And Love Affair Remix)<br />Cults & Superhuman Happiness - Um Canto de Afoxé para o Bloco d'Ilê<br />Drop Life - Moon Shine<br />Girls - Vomit<br />Kathryn Calder - Who Are You<br />Magic Arm - Outdoor Games<br />Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire - Huzzah! (Remix FT Despot, Das Racist, Danny Brown & El-P)<br />Ohbijou - Anser<br />Ohbijou - Sligo<br />RxRy - Aertigo Lapsees<br />St. Vincent - Surgeon<br />Star Slinger - Dutchie Courage<br /><br /><br />That's it, I'm heading South: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111013.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111013.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-6955421197521679704?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-17220073134381345572011-10-11T19:55:00.000-04:002011-10-11T19:55:55.007-04:00MP3 blog 2011/10/11blog 2011/10/11 - hide yourself there is a stillness coming<br /><br /><b>14th </b>- Hide Yourself: Smooth dnb liquid vocals, back at the 1992 tempos.<br /><br /><b>Bjork </b>- Crystalline (<b>Omar Souleyman </b>version)<br /><b>Bjork </b>- Mawal (<b>Omar Souleyman </b>version): These interpretations are just gorgeous. Souleyman's work inside a top-class studio really shines. Thank you Bjork for making this happen. I highly recommend getting this EP.<br /><br /><b>Born Gold </b>- Alabaster Bodyworlds<br /><b>Born Gold </b>- Decimate Everything: What was once GOBBLE GOBBLE is now Born Gold! Get used to it, get on board. It is awesome.<br /><br /><b>Dominique Young Unique </b>- Tick Tick Boom: boom boom bouncey yes<br /><br /><b>Domo Genesis </b>- Boss' Life: From the new LP Under The Influence, Domo's got the slick jazzy beats and this is probably the best thing to come out of the Odd Future crew. Hope more comes like this.<br /><br /><b>FAT32 </b>- Hard Drive: Saw these cats on tour with Secret Chiefs 3 and their stop-start glee is infectious and powerful. Think of The Ruins with a Devo sense of humour.<br /><br /><b>Health </b>- Goth Star (<b>Pictureplane </b>cover): It's like darker electro got swarmed by 80s synthpop.<br /><br /><b>James Vincent Mc Morrow </b>- Higher Love (<b>Steve Winwood </b>cover): awww how can you not like it???<br /><br /><b>MRTN GRWN </b>- Angmaren<br /><b>MRTN GRWN </b>- Sauvignon Blanc (Deep Into Your Eyes): Buckle up and get ready for the slow burn. 2 tracks, almost 20 minutes of epic electro satisfaction. This is post-Kraftwerk chill ish that proves expertise can come with restraint and beauty can come with aww fuck I don't know where I am going with this but can someone please just bludgeon Skrillex? k thx.<br /><br /><b>Quintron </b>- Ring The Alarm: Sucre Du Sauvage is amazing and everything you'd want from Quintron and Ms. Pussycat. Phat organs ring out with energy that hasn't jangled you so much as when you first heard JSBX's Orange in 1994. Drum Buddy solos! Pussycat artfiction! Area recordings that tantalize the fangirl that just loved the old frogs tape. And did I mention this wall all created as part as a live-in installation at an art museum? No album is weirder and more perfect for this day and age.<br /><br /><b>Sleepy Kitty </b>- Gimme A Chantz!<br /><b>Sleepy Kitty </b>- Speaking Politely: Oh this sleepy kitty just needs to dance an adorable little jig before curling up and taking a nap.<br /><br /><b>The Cool Kids </b>- Penny Hardaway ft <b>Ghostface</b>: I didn't dig When Fish Ride Bicycles as much as I wanted to, but it's hard to sleep on this Ghostface appearance.

EVER??? Love the bouncing pulsing bass.<br /><br /><b>Feist </b>- Graveyard<br /><b>Feist </b>- How Come You Never Go There<br /><b>Feist </b>- The Undiscovered First: THE NEW FEIST ALBUM IS AWESOME. Taking notes from both Cat Power and Arcade Fire, this album meets and exceeds my expectations. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.<br /><br /><b>Freescha </b>- Babies In Yor Body (Version)<br /><b>Freescha </b>- Heartbreak Attack: zomg! Remember them? I loved Freescha because back in the 90s they put out a slow IDM track on a 12"...at 45 rpm! That meant you could play it at 33 rpm and it was monolithically awesome. Well they are back in fine form with a new set of singles that earnestly represents the glowing electronica that modern producers are only mimicking.<br /><br /><b>Frightened Rabbit </b>- Fuck This Place<br /><b>Frightened Rabbit </b>- Scottish Winds: From the brand new self titled EP, I hope this means there is a full length out soon.<br /><br /><b>Lil Wayne </b>- Nightmares of the Bottom: From the Tha Carter IV, an album I otherwise pass over. Smoooooth.<br /><br /><b>Meleka </b>- Go (<b>Crazy Cousinz </b>Remix): If this doesn't groove you, you have no booty in your soul. That, or you are officially allergic to Destiny's Child.<br /><br /><b>Omar Souleyman </b>- Haram (Forbidden - I Signal, You Deny): Haflat Gharbia is out now! Documenting live performances from last year, this album is rollicking fun for Dabtke bounce fans. I was so happy to see him last year, highly recommended. And this live album even sounds better than some of his other CDs, so don't let the negative preconceptions about "live album" dampen your enthusiasm.<br /><br /><b>Synkro </b>- Viewpoint: True to the Synkro sound, melodic chords and vocal chops that are unapologetically dramtic, and very well produced<br /><br /><b>The Field </b>- Then It's White: The Field are imho one of the most over-Pitchforked electronic bands out there. Give it a rest, you pitchfork doofuses! But, this track is awesome, and so I am at least eaglery awaiting for the new album Looping State Of Mind.<br /><br /><b>The Rest </b>- Always On My Mind<br /><b>The Rest </b>- The Last Day: Not sure what to say here. I like it!<br /><br /><b>Tom Waits </b>- Bad As Me: New Tom Waits single. What more do you need?<br /><br /><b>U.S. Girls </b>- If These Walls Could Talk: Badass 60s girlpop sounds?<br /><br /><b>Zeds Dead </b>- Coffee Break: Backing down from the bro-step pissing contest, we get some sexier and smooth beats.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Beastie Boys - Don't Play No Game That I Can't Win ft Santigold (Major Lazer Remix)<br />Beyonce - Run The World (MRC Riddims Remix)<br />Feist - Graveyard<br />Feist - How Come You Never Go There<br />Feist - The Undiscovered First<br />Freescha - Babies In Yor Body (Version)<br />Freescha - Heartbreak Attack<br />Frightened Rabbit - Fuck This Place<br />Frightened Rabbit - Scottish Winds<br />Lil Wayne - Nightmares of the Bottom<br />Meleka - Go (Crazy Cousinz Remix)<br />Omar Souleyman - Haram (Forbidden - I Signal, You Deny)<br />Synkro - Viewpoint<br />The Field - Then It's White<br />The Rest - Always On My Mind<br />The Rest - The Last Day<br />Tom Waits - Bad As Me<br />U.S. Girls - If These Walls Could Talk<br />Zeds Dead - Coffee Break<br /><br /><br />These will never last: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111004.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20111004.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-719078270245703031?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-49698866355208201222011-09-28T21:08:00.000-04:002011-09-28T21:08:31.304-04:00MP3 blog 2011/09/28blog 2011/09/28 - I'll never understand you and that's ok <br /><br />So ummm... yeah. I realeased 2 mixes in the last month! You should get them, as they are awesome.<br />I also posted the new release Lesbians On Ecstasy w/Big Freedia track, and did a special DJ edit.<br />After all that hard work, facebook says I lost like 6 "fans" last month. <br />Seriously people, WTF? <br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Death Songs </b>- Ophelia: I have a thing for songs where the instruments and hand claps generally overwhelm the vocals.<br /><br /><b>Dum Dum Girls </b>- Bedroom Eyes: The new album Only in Dreams is kind of awesome with it's cute bedroom rock sound and vocals reminiscent of The Long Blondes.<br /><br /><b>Grizzly Bear </b>- While You Wait for the Others ft Michael McDonald: This goes back to 2009, but I missed that this actually happened. Best idea for a single's b-side ever: replace your singer.<br /><br /><b>Iamamiwhoami </b>- John: This is probably a poo-ey youtube rip for all I know, but have to give some love to this youtube sensation done write. Google it up if you don't know.<br /><br /><b>Lesbians On Ecstasy </b>- She Likes to Party ft Big Freedia (CPI DJ Edit): SHE LIKES TO PARTY PARTY PARTY PARTY PARTY PARTY PARTY PARTAAAAAY !!!<br /><br /><b>M83 </b>- Intro ft <b>Zola Jesus</b><br /><b>M83 </b>- New Map: I hearby do declare: having only listened to the whole thing once, Hurry Up, We're Dreaming is one of my favourite albums of the year. AMAZING.<br /><br /><b>Machine Drum </b>- Lay Me Down: As an oldschool IDM breakbeat-head, the new Machine Drum album Room(s) and other singles have left me flat, but here, to me, is the best of it.<br /><br /><b>Nest </b>- Stillness<br /><b>Nest </b>- The Dying Roar: The Body Pilot EP is gorgeous. Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous.<br /><br /><b>One Republic </b>- Good Life (<b>Robert DWNTWN </b>Remix): ummm yes<br /><br /><b>Patrick Wolf </b>- Bermondsey Street<br /><b>Patrick Wolf </b>- The Falcons: Lupercalia. New album. OFFICIALLY AWESOME. Good show, Mr. Wolf.<br /><br /><b>Purity Ring </b>- Belispeak: WELL WORTH THE WAIT, this new single is amazing. Ladytron eat yr heart out.<br /><br /><b>Sundar Subramanian & Madawaska String Quartet </b>- Diminished But Returning, movement 2: As performed by the Madawaska String Quartet! Fabulous work from this young Canadian composer. That I went to highschool with...<br /><br /><b>The Mountain Goats </b>- Commandante<br /><b>The Mountain Goats </b>- Yoga: I have been sifting through older M.G. EPs ands rarities, so you'll see a bunch in recent weeks. These 2 come from 2002's Devil in the Shortwave.<br /><br /><b>The Wombats </b>- Our Perfect Disease<br /><b>The Wombats </b>- Tokyo (Vampires and Wolves): Yup, This Modern Glitch is great pop indulgence. Give in, get dancing.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Death Songs - Ophelia<br />Dum Dum Girls - Bedroom Eyes<br />Grizzly Bear - While You Wait for the Others ft Michael McDonald<br />Iamamiwhoami - John<br />Lesbians On Ecstasy - She Likes to Party (CPI DJ Edit)<br />M83 - Intro ft Zola Jesus<br />M83 - New Map<br />Machine Drum - Lay Me Down<br />Nest - Stillness<br />Nest - The Dying Roar<br />One Republic - Good Life (Robert DWNTWN Remix)<br />Patrick Wolf - Bermondsey Street<br />Patrick Wolf - The Falcons<br />Purity Ring - Belispeak<br />Sundar Subramanian & Madawaska String Quartet - Diminished But Returning, movement 2<br />The Mountain Goats - Commandante<br />The Mountain Goats - Yoga<br />The Wombats - Our Perfect Disease<br />The Wombats - Tokyo (Vampires and Wolves)<br /><br /><br />why bother, don't try, time for naps: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110928.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110928.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-4969886635520820122?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-62243956461779905852011-09-26T07:32:00.000-04:002011-09-26T07:32:36.811-04:00CPI - Always More Than This (chosen families 3)<span style="font-size: large;"><b>CPI - Always More Than This (chosen families 3)</b></span><br /><br />dreamer beats<br />78 min, 178 MB<br /><a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/CPI_-_Always_More_Than_This.mp3">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/CPI_-_Always_More_Than_This.mp3</a><br /><br />01) James Blake - To Care (Like You)<br />02) Gil Scott-Heron And Jamie XX - I'm New Here<br />03) Radiohead - Give Up The Ghost<br />04) Bjork - Unison (Ital Tek Remix)<br />05) Your Infamous Harp - Get Up Sun!<br />06) Florence And The Machine - Dog Days Are Over<br />07) Gil Scott-Heron And Jamie XX - Running<br />08) _nkown Sh_pes - If I Should Die<br />09) oOoOO - Burnout Eyess<br />10) Diplodocus - Summer's Gonna Hurt You<br />11) Diplo - Summer's Gonna Hurt You (Diplo 2010 Remix)<br />12) Emika - Drop The Other<br />13) Nguzunguzu - Mirage (Brenmar Remix)<br />14) Archie Pelago - Prospect Dub<br />15) aus - Moraine (Bracken rmx)<br />16) Eraldo Bernocchi & Blackfilm - Where We Stand<br />17) Emika - Double Edge (Pinch Remix)<br />18) Bichi - Layers Of Generation Without Number<br />19) LAKE R_DIO - Enjoy The Storm<br />20) _nkown Sh_pes - The World Keeps Turning<br />21) James Blake - Air & Lack Thereof<br />22) AGF/Delay - Most Beautiful<br />23) Jacaszek - Rytm To Niesmiertelnosc II<br />24) Elite Gymnastics - Here, In Heaven 2<br />25) Final Fantasy - This Is The Dream Of Win And Regine<br /><br /><a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/CPI_-_Always_More_Than_This.mp3">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/CPI_-_Always_More_Than_This.mp3</a><br /><br /><br /><br />The chosen families series:<br />In retrospect, I now consider Moonchild (in memoriam) the unofficial part 0 in this series.<br />Part 1: <a href="http://thetastates.com/#anchor_chosen1">Directions To My Special Place</a><br />Part 2: <a href="http://thetastates.com/#anchor_chosen2">Glittering, Waiting</a><br />Part 3: <a href="http://thetastates.com/#anchor_chosen3">Always More Than This</a><br />Part 4 will be epic and long, and will hopefully be out before the year is over.<br />These 5 mixes embody an aesthetic I call "dreamer beats", the evolution of which might have been obvious to anyone who follows my mp3 blog regularly.

From the new album "Extradimensional Ethnography".<br /><br /><b>Architecture in Helsinki </b>- Escapee (<b>The Polish Ambassador </b>Remix): AIH are always goofy pop fun. I can't help but love them. NO SHAME.<br /><br /><b>Emily Wells </b>- Symphony 2; & The Click Boom Boom<br /><b>Emily Wells </b>- Symphony 4; America's Mercy War<br /><b>Emily Wells </b>- Symphony 9; & The Sunshine: I caught Emily Wells on tour with Colin Stetson and she rocked her opening set with a comparable gusto. Highly recommended for anyone who wants that sweet-spot between Tune-Yards and Coco Rosie. Catch her on tour if you can! "The Symphonies: Dreams Memories & Parties" is from 2008, but still is super fun.<br /><br /><b>Fink </b>- Perfect Darkness<br /><b>Fink </b>- Warm Shadow: Perfect Darkness is a shock for those of us expecting more downtempo funk-lite. Gone is the dub bass, and front-and-centre is the Jose Gonzalez meets Ben Harper guitar + vocals. If that combo sounds tantalizing to you, definitely check this album out.<br /><br /><b>Foster the People </b>- Pumped Up Kicks (<b>Chrome Canyon </b>Remix)<br /><b>Foster the People </b>- Warrant: Foster The People have been pumping out smile-inducing pop jams for my mp3 player all summer. Big-ups to Chrome Canyon for turning the bounciest of pop songs in to a Hall-N-Oates slowburner. Very brave.<br /><br /><b>Lazrtag </b>- Guess What: Oh fine, here's some straightup electro house.<br /><br /><b>No Ceremony </b>- Hurtlove: Like a chilled a Crystal Castles, all up in your bedroom.<br /><br /><b>Ryan Tanner </b>- Peaceful Mind: Reminds me of peak Damien Rice with some country twang.<br /><br /><b>Star Slinger </b>- Mornin': Straight-up Star Slinger style: bouncey breathey breaky, heavy on the filter.<br /><br /><b>Teen Daze </b>- Driving Home From The Beach (The Feeling Of)<br /><b>Teen Daze </b>- Hard Times_Good Times: Umm what? This is their TOUR EP? Woah. Yes, the Teen Daze Tour EP is one of my favourite EPs of the year. It's some of the best chillwave pop out there. Highly recommended.<br /><br /><b>Typhoon </b>- Summer Home: What can we say here... maybe... Gordon Gano hangs out with Beirut, and then they write a song after a cottage drinking binge where they listened to lots of Explosions In The Sky?

It is more of a focus on emotional content, psychological meaning and production minutae of the tracks than it is about the genres, which range from dubstep to witch house to idm to folk to breakbeats to dreamwave to rock to downtempo to whatever else.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-1713720959711354522?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-56893159024145151422011-09-06T19:08:00.001-04:002011-09-06T19:09:42.895-04:00MP3 blog 2011/09/06blog 2011/09/06 - the saving grace of this window of opportunity<br /><br /><br /><b>Daedelus </b>- My Beau ft Erika Rose and Paperboy: Shocking, simply shocking! Daedelus, producing something so damn smooth and slick and almost... dancefloor friendly? Woah. King of the quirky beats still maintains some odd bass squelch, but the RnB here is ready for the primetime.<br /><br /><b>Debbie Neigher </b>- Home: I don't normally go for typical jazz vocals, which this reminds me of at first, but then it gets all folksy and whimsical and then BAM, that chorus swoops in like a sip of a wine you've never quite tasted before. From the self-titled new album.<br /><br /><b>DJ Rob 3</b> - Township Funk: The CLASSIC South-African dance stormer gets my favourite re-flip. No muss, no fuss, no nonsense.<br /><br /><b>Emmy The Great </b>- A Woman, A Woman, A Century Of Sleep: Emmy's songs are the diaries of a drama-rich life and certainly not everyone's cup of tea. The new album is Virtue and slide this song alongside 24 and We Almost Had a Baby for my favourite little bits emotional tourism.<br /><br /><b>ill.Gates </b>- Eggplantation (<b>Knowa Knowone</b>'s Playa Sunrise Remix)<br /><b>ill.Gates </b>- That Look ft <b>Niko</b>: ill.Gates has been blowing shit up left and right, sometimes being the modern day pinch-hitter for the likes of Amon Tobin, other time dipping in to his rich history of funky breaks. First track here is off Autopirate Remixed and the second from the Schmunday School EP. Tonnes of new stuff always seem to be coming down the pipe, so keep an eye open for this guy.<br /><br /><b>Jay-Z & Kanye West </b>- Gotta Have It: Another hit from Watch The Throne, short and sweet.<br /><br /><b>Jihae </b>- Best Thing: From 2008's Elvis Is Still Alive, smokey and reminiscent of Aimee Mann. Super sweet.<br /><br /><b>Kastle </b>- I Know: Sexy stepper bass for all!<br /><br /><b>M83 </b>- Midnight City (<b>Alcala </b>Remix): New M83 album out soon! In the meantime, let's enjoy the synthpop excess of the new remixes single.<br /><br /><b>Nguzunguzu </b>- Wake Sleep: I've been hyping Nguzunguzu for a while now, and oh look, he rocks it hard again. Anyone remember that vocal sample? Maybe sound kind of like a particular 80s house tracks? HMMMMMMM? So good.<br /><br /><b>Possimiste </b>- The Flight of Lulu: Musicbox IDM is a pleasure that everyone needs to enjoy. <br /><br /><b>RAC </b>- Double Dragon Stage 1 (RAC Karl Kling Mix)<br /><b>RAC </b>- Duck Huntin' (Terrible Shot) (RAC Karl Kling Mix)<br /><b>RAC </b>- Mario Kart 64, Koopa Troopa Beach (RAC Mix): RAC, the undisputed gods of remixing pretty much everything, blow shit up on the new Nintendo Vs Sega 2 album. please give these people money.<br /><br /><b>Radiohead </b>- Reckoner (<b>Julianna Barwick </b>Remix): Barwick loads up on echo fx and looper pedals, and takes her gear rack to this Radiohead track which ends up sound more like a cover than a remix.<br /><br /><b>Stricken City </b>- Some Say: An oh so very British take on Vampire Weekend, perhaps? From the new album Losing Colour.<br /><br /><b>The Morning Benders </b>- Last Night (<b>The Strokes </b>cover): Meh, what are you gonna do? How can you even think to hate on this???<br /><br /><b>TV On The Radio </b>- Will Do<br /><b>TV On The Radio </b>- You: I thought the last TVOTR album was a bit 'meh', and I was shocked it got all the accolade that it did. At least with these 2 new tracks from Nine Types Of Light, I can assuredly say "yes indeedy, I do like this."<br /><br /><b>Wu Tang & Jimi Hendrix </b>- House Of Flying Daggers : TAKE A SOUND! TAKE WU-TANG! COMBINE! There have been a massive amount of projects like this coming out. They are simultaneously love letters to the source material and to the Wu-Tang acapella ouvre. This album is great for any one that loves Hendrix and Wu-Tang. Seriously. I'm not being saracastic... I'm just Wu-tang-ed out. *le sigh* A gal needs some space, I can only handle so much wu in one year.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Daedelus - My Beau ft Erika Rose and Paperboy<br />Debbie Neigher - Home<br />DJ Rob 3 - Township Funk<br />Emmy The Great - A Woman, A Woman, A Century Of Sleep<br />ill.Gates - Eggplantation (Knowa Knowone's Playa Sunrise Remix)<br />ill.Gates - That Look ft Niko<br />Jay-Z & Kanye West - Gotta Have It<br />Jihae - Best Thing<br />Kastle - I Know<br />M83 - Midnight City (Alcala Remix)<br />Nguzunguzu - Wake Sleep<br />Possimiste - The Flight of Lulu<br />RAC - Double Dragon Stage 1 (RAC Karl Kling Mix)<br />RAC - Duck Huntin' (Terrible Shot) (RAC Karl Kling Mix)<br />RAC - Mario Kart 64, Koopa Troopa Beach (RAC Mix)<br />Radiohead - Reckoner (Julianna Barwick Remix)<br />Stricken City - Some Say<br />The Morning Benders - Last Night (The Strokes cover)<br />TV On The Radio - Will Do<br />TV On The Radio - You<br />Wu Tang & Jimi Hendrix - House Of Flying Daggers <br /><br /><br />And again this will keep you afloat: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110906.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110906.zip</a><br /><br /><br />Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a><br /><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-5689315902414515142?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-80058378265430092142011-09-01T22:29:00.000-04:002011-09-01T22:29:42.294-04:00MP3 blog 2011/09/01blog 2011/09/01 - welcome back to where you were before but now you're older and the magic is waning<br /><br />NO I DO NOT CARE THAT YOU HAVEN'T DOWNLOADED THE LAST ONE YET, IT IS YOU THAT IS BEING SLOW NOT ME THAT IS BEING FAST!<br />sheesh.<br />Come on people, download, unzip, pop into your mp3 player and go! <br />Simple. :)<br /><br /><br /><b>Björk </b>- Virus (<b>Them Jeans </b>Remix): Any DJ in the 90s will tell you, Bjork changed the game. No other artist sought out remixes more ferociously than the Icelandic one, everything from downtempo to breakcore to house to ambient to techno etc etc etc it was all there in the million+1 limited edition 12"s. So of course now is the time, as happens before all new Bjork albums officially come out, that the remixes flood over our naked bodies!<br /><br /><b>Blanck Mass </b>- Chernobyl<br /><b>Blanck Mass </b>- Weakling Flier: "Wall Of Casios" was often used to describe Wyndham Hill records, but the aesthetic has been giving voluminous chorus and reverb pedals, some lowend filters, and a "fuck you I'm the real Goblin" attitude. I wasn't in to the album as a whole, but the new self titled record is a must for fans of Vangelis, arpeggiator psych, and new-age-with-attitude.<br /><br /><b>Coss </b>- Burn It Down: From the new 'Before I Awoke', this guy isn't opening up new territory, but more retreading familiar sounds in style. For fans of that Rawkus sound.<br /><br /><b>Dillon Francis </b>- Beautician 2.0: Synths-ahoy! This is the way I like my electro. Clean, exceptionally produced, and full exposition of what one can do with a DAW. These are the lessons of 8-bit video game music brought to fruition.<br /><br /><b>Eleanor Friedberger </b>- My Mistakes<br /><b>Eleanor Friedberger </b>- Owl's Head Park: Yes, the voice does sound familiar! IT IS INDEED the woman from Fiery Furnaces, and she's still as quirky as ever. Like this year's PJ Harvey album, you might not instinctively be drawn to it, but yields a pile of awesome. OK, this is not quite as good as the Harvey album, but "Last Summer" is an achievement in modern oddball pop music.<br /><br /><b>Holy Other </b>- Touch: Dubstep slowed down a tad!<br /><br /><b>Icona Pop </b>- Manners: Hmmm sounds remarkably like Alex Winston! <br /><br /><b>Lil B </b>- Game<br /><b>Lil B </b>- Unchain Me: So yeah, guy pisses off hiphop world by titling new album I'm Gay. That's kind of funny. And the response, of course, terrifying. Dear angry hiphoppers: fuck you douchebags.<br /><br /><b>Mexicans With Guns </b>- Jaguar: We dropped some MWG before, but besides that time this is my next favourite track off of Ceremony. If you're a Buraka Som Siesta fan, this will definitely be up your alley. Lots of electro, some great verses, a big hodge-podge of party-time.<br /><br /><b>Porcelain Raft </b>- Talk To Me (<b>Pierce & Pierce</b>'s Epilogue Remix): Low and subtle, the way to go!<br /><br /><b>Sea Oleena </b>- Southbound: Gorgeous restrained pop.<br /><br /><b>The Jezabels </b>- Endless Summer: OMG total ecstatic indie rock. From the new album Prisoner.<br /><br /><b>The Weeknd </b>- Rolling Stone<br /><b>The Weeknd </b>- The Zone: This group is really hit and miss. Thursday is a bit more hit, but still I am only in to half the tracks. Kudos for bringing something new to the table though.<br /><br /><b>Washed Out </b>- Before: Within And Without didn't really grab me except for a few tracks, and this is definitely one of my faves.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS:</b><br /><br />Björk - Virus (Them Jeans Remix)<br />Blanck Mass - Chernobyl<br />Blanck Mass - Weakling Flier<br />Coss - Burn It Down<br />Dillon Francis - Beautician 2.0<br />Eleanor Friedberger - My Mistakes<br />Eleanor Friedberger - Owl's Head Park<br />Holy Other - Touch<br />Icona Pop - Manners<br />Lil B - Game<br />Lil B - Unchain Me<br />Mexicans With Guns - Jaguar<br />Porcelain Raft - Talk To Me (Pierce & Pierce's Epilogue Remix)<br />Sea Oleena - Southbound<br />The Jezabels - Endless Summer<br />The Weeknd - Rolling Stone<br />The Weeknd - The Zone<br />Washed Out - Before<br /><br /><br />We are all made for each other: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110901.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110901.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><br /><br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-8005837826543009214?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-90871076810165249212011-08-30T22:46:00.000-04:002011-08-30T22:46:06.395-04:00MP3 blog 2011/08/30blog 2011/08/30 - the exhaustion creeps in and you know you've done OK<br /><br /><br />Well, I did it! I finally managed to catch Colin Stetson live, and it was awesome, and I now have a signed copy of his amazing new album on my record wall.<br />All it took was having an excruciatingly exhausting 15 hour day of Ottawa Pride activities and that included me performing twice. <br />Totally worth it.<br /><br />Check him out while you can. The pieces are very difficult, the physically massive, and the strain on his (well-toned) body quite evident. I don't think he'll be able to perform like this in 5 years from now, so enjoy his current work while you can.<br /><br />Anyways, 'tis a new week, 'tis a new update!<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Air France </b>- It Feels Good To Be Around You: Super sweet pop music mixed with the best of modern hipster beats and chillwavey production. Amazing.<br /><br /><b>Archie Pelago </b>- Prospect Dub: SAXOPHONE & DUBSTEP, 4-EVA!<br /><br /><b>Barn Owl </b>- Turiya: An amazing pulsing instrumental rendering from the new album Lost in the Glare.<br /><br /><b>Earth </b>- Old Black: We dropped another track from Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light I way back at blog20110609, but here's another slowed down instrumental cowboy soundtrack wondertune.<br /><br /><b>Girls In Trouble </b>- We Are Androgynous: The vocal range here is astounding and delightful.<br /><br /><b>Gramatik </b>- Like You Do<br /><b>Gramatik </b>- While I Was Playin' Fair: Grammatik does full-spectrum productions that are produced like a brick house, and he does them well. Album after album of solid banger beats, and now Beatz & Pieces Vol. 1 gives us more of the same: quality snappy production, like the antithesis to mid-90s Madlib.<br /><br /><b>Inmontauk </b>- Piroxilina<br /><b>Inmontauk </b>- Uno: This goes back to 2008, but here are 2 great shimmering examples of peak ambient idm wonderfullness. From the Isla EP.<br /><br /><b>Intimate Stranger </b>- Nighttime: Like a cross between 90s girl punk and Lily Allen. For reals. From the album Under.<br /><br /><b>James Blake </b>- Lindisfarne: The video single, combines parts 1 and 2 from the LP together.<br /><br /><b>James Vincent McMorrow </b>- We Don't Eat: I love the epic size of the emotions in this song. From the album Early In The Morning.<br /><br /><b>Muslimgauze </b>- North Africa Is Not So Far Away: This digs back to 1997, but pretty much everything modern being done with bass can be unearthed in this guys post-mortem archive of releases.<br /><br /><b>Salem </b>- Till The World Ends (<b>Britney Spears </b>cover): Does it count as a cover if you're sampling the whole song and just kinda slowing it down? Ahh whatever, it's still awesome and has the glib sort of childishness that you expect from Witch House.<br /><br /><b>Southerly </b>- Suffer: I really dig the structure of this track, it really draws me in. From the new album Youth.<br /><br /><b>Thao & Mirah </b>- Little Cup<br /><b>Thao & Mirah </b>- Squareneck: I wanted this album to be total pure bliss, but alas it is only REALLY GOOD. Of course it opens with an amazing collab featuring Tune-Yards, and really how can you maintain energy after that? But it is filled with magic and anyone in to Thao or Mirah or Tune-Yards will really love this.<br /><br /><b>The Wild Flowers </b>- Parchman Farm: Such jolly good fun! After sitting in my folder for months unlabeled, I finally found the title. Smile, motherfuckers, summer's over.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Air France - It Feels Good To Be Around You<br />Archie Pelago - Prospect Dub<br />Barn Owl - Turiya<br />Earth - Old Black<br />Girls In Trouble - We Are Androgynous<br />Gramatik - Like You Do<br />Gramatik - While I Was Playin' Fair<br />Inmontauk - Piroxilina<br />Inmontauk - Uno<br />Intimate Stranger - Nighttime<br />James Blake - Lindisfarne<br />James Vincent McMorrow - We Don't Eat<br />Muslimgauze - North Africa Is Not So Far Away<br />Salem - Till The World Ends (Britney Spears cover)<br />Southerly - Suffer<br />Thao & Mirah - Little Cup<br />Thao & Mirah - Squareneck<br />The Wild Flowers - Parchman Farm<br /><br /><br />stretch and nap and stretch and nap: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110830.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110830.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-9087107681016524921?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-2260552108439821052011-08-25T23:50:00.000-04:002011-08-25T23:50:15.373-04:00MP3 blog 2011/08/25blog 2011/08/25 - oh we're almost there!<br /><br />Summer winds down! The weekend approaches! Time for one more quick update because I've discovered the world is filled with goodness!<br /><br /><br /><b>Alexander Turnquist </b>- Spherical Aberrations: Hypnotoad wants YOU!<br /><br /><b>Analogmonks </b>- Echoes of the Summer: More new epic synthrock instrumenta action!<br /><br /><b>Apricot Rail </b>- Surry Hills: Oh what's that? More gorgeous instrumental music? Well you are very welcome indeed.<br /><br /><b>Babe Rainbow </b>- Chains: The instrumental glory continues with this amazing new tracks from the Endless Path EP. Just synth and spooky vocal sample.<br /><br /><b>Baobinga & I.D </b>- Want It: OK, enough with the epic instrumentals, time for the dancey-pants instrumentals!<br /><br /><b>Class Actress </b>- Keep You: 26.5 minutes in and still no pop lyrics? Well here's Class Actress to clean things up and get you focused again. From the new album Rapprocher. Like a cross between Ladytron and Young Galaxy.<br /><br /><b>Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. </b>- Morning Thought<br /><b>Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. </b>- We Almost Lost Detroit: It's A Corporate World has a number of super sweet tracks, more than enough to offset any speedbumps in the programming. <br /><br /><b>Exitmusic </b>- The Sea: Dark vocals that hint at Braids and Zola Jesus equally, from the new album From Silence.<br /><br /><b>Jay-Z & Kanye West </b>- Otis: Brand new single from the hot new collab album. Of course you knew this was going to happen.<br /><br /><b>Knowing Looks </b>- Abandoned Skip: Hot steppa action! Get yer hot steppa action here! Extra clicks and wooshes!<br /><br /><b>Mondkopf </b>- The Song Of Shadows: The new album is Rising Doom and here we have a dense slab of churning beats with a high pitch sound that really reminds me of Digital Underground.<br /><br /><b>Nexus Petrol </b>- Le Mantra Des Fourmis: Finally, we are seeing the IDM and post-dubstep aesthetics merge in to a concrete whole.<br /><br /><b>Paul Simon </b>- Rewrite<br /><b>Paul Simon </b>- The Afterlife: First, let's remember this dude is probably in his 70s. And he's amazing. The album, So Beautiful Or So What, isn't a perfect gem, but there are more than a few glorious moments on it. Primarily, Simon's ridiculous guitar playing. Man can this guy pluck.<br /><br /><b>RÜFÜS </b>- We Left (<b>SymbolOne </b>Remix): Fabulous electro pop!<br /><br /><b>Rusko </b>- Do You Wanna Have A Party<br /><b>Rusko </b>- Got You In Check: And I'll leave you with some hot new partystep singles!<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Alexander Turnquist - Spherical Aberrations <br />Analogmonks - Echoes of the Summer<br />Apricot Rail - Surry Hills<br />Babe Rainbow - Chains<br />Baobinga & I.D - Want It<br />Class Actress - Keep You<br />Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. - Morning Thought<br />Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. - We Almost Lost Detroit<br />Exitmusic - The Sea<br />Jay-Z & Kanye West - Otis<br />Knowing Looks - Abandoned Skip<br />Mondkopf - The Song Of Shadows<br />Nexus Petrol - Le Mantra Des Fourmis<br />Paul Simon - Rewrite<br />Paul Simon - The Afterlife<br />RÜFÜS - We Left (SymbolOne Remix)<br />Rusko - Do You Wanna Have A Party<br />Rusko - Got You In Check<br /><br /><br />Yes, and yes, over there too: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110825.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110825.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><br /><br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-226055210843982105?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-3566835237198159412011-08-25T19:21:00.000-04:002011-08-25T19:21:29.833-04:00Music Organization.I keep my albums sorted in to 33 different genre folders. Some are somewhat specific ("IDM"), some are catch-alls, vaguer... ("Rock - Harder").<br /><br />The latest genre folder to be created? "Early 20th century"<br />I have started gathering albums from before 1950. Only 22 albums there so far, not a lot of selection, but some really really amazing music...<br />Alessandro Moreschi - The Last Castrato (Complete Vatican Recordings)<br />Benny Goodman - Live At Carnegie Hall 1938 (2 CD)<br />Benny Goodman - Stompin'<br />Cab Calloway - Best of the Big Bands<br />Cab Calloway - The Best of Big Bands, Cab Calloway ft Leon 'Chu' Berry<br />Chants de la Guerre d'Espagne<br />Charley Patton - Complete Recordings 1929-1934 (5 cd)<br />Jelly Roll Morton - Last Sessions; The Complete General Recordings<br />Lead Belly - Last Sessions (4 LP) (1948)<br />Sato Chiyako - Japanese 1920's<br />VA - American Primitive Vol. I; Raw Pre-War Gospel (1926-36) (1997)<br />VA - Baby, How Can It Be (Songs Of Love, Lust And Contempt From The 1920s And 1930s)<br />VA - History Of Carnival; Christmas, Carnival, Calenda and Calypso from Trinidad, 1933-1939<br />VA - Junkers, Jivers & Coke Fiends (Vintage Songs about Drugs 1926-1952)<br />VA - Old Time Mountain Banjo (2005)<br />VA - People Take Warning; Murder Ballads & Songs of Disaster 1913-1938 (3 CD)<br />VA - Pop Music, The Early Years 1890-1950 (2 CD)<br />VA - The Best of Big Band Vol 1 (2004)<br />VA - The Best of Big Band Vol 2 (2004)<br />VA - The Best of Big Band Vol 3 (2004)<br />VA - The Best of Big Band Vol 4 (2004)<br />VA- American Primitive Vol. II; Pre-War Revenants (1897-1939) (2 CD) (2005)<br /><br /><br />2 new specialization genres have arisen. Don't laugh...<br />But my "Soundtracks" folder (now 80 albums) now has an offshoot: "Soundtrack; musicals" (19 albums...)<br />My "Spoken Word" albums also dropped an offshoot, "Spoken Word; audiobooks" (43 albums), as a way of separating proper book readings from all of the other spoken word weirdness I have.<br /><br />A few unexpectedly heavily populated genre folders...<br />Indigenous, Traditional, World: 195 albums.<br />Electro-acoustic, Tape Music: 170 albums.<br />Kids Music: 40 albums.<br />Noise & Experimental: 604 albums.<br /><br /><br />The other new-ish genre folder: "Field Recordings". 84 albums.

If you used to be all sludge rock and post-rock and then discovered how awesome Earth are, then this would be your next logical progession in life. And if you're already there, well, this band won't replace your hard-on for The Dirty Three, but it's still a darn good album.<br /><br /><b>Black Fabio </b>- Black Fabio ft <b>J. Moore</b>: Sick sick beat, great flow, total package.<br /><br /><b>Dark Mean </b>- Smoke Lake: Contemporary indie rock from the self-titled album, for fans of Sloan... and fun.<br /><br /><b>DJ Fresh </b>- Louder ft Sian Evans (<b>Flux Pavilion & Doctor P </b>Remix): Oh so anthemic, I couldn't reist.<br /><br /><b>Dum Dum Girls </b>- Coming Down: Off the new album "Only in Dreams"! A total slow-burn melancholy rubdown.<br /><br /><b>Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros </b>- Home (<b>RAC </b>mix): AGAIN, RAC kills it on the pop-dance front.<br /><br /><b>eGo </b>- Back In Chicago: OK fine, jerk face. I'll use your stupid capitalization.<br /><br /><b>Emika </b>- Drop The Other: After the last single with Pinch, Emika drops more sick darkness. Fabulous.<br /><br /><b>Goldfish </b>- We Come Together ft <b>Sakhile Moleshe</b>: Have I heard this before? Is this not Ozomatli? Whatevs. The full length Get Busy Living wasn't grooving my boat, but this track is irresistible.<br /><br /><b>Noiserv </b>- Where Is My Mind (<b>Pixies </b>cover): A surprisingly minimal music-box style rendition. Who'dda thunkit?<br /><br /><b>Obeah </b>- Copenhagen Massive: OMG DUB SAMPLES! DUB SAMPLES IN DUBSTEP! Who'd have thought? I great return to forms.<br /><br /><b>Ohbijou </b>- Niagara: New track from the upcoming Metal Meets! OMG I AM SO EXCITED NEW OHBIJOU THIS IS THE SOUND OF ME GOING SQUEE: SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.<br /><br /><b>The Barettas </b>- Black Sheep: We last dropped some Barettas back in blog20110317, and here's another track of rawkus bar-brawl music.<br /><br /><b>The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart </b>- Heart In Your Heartbreak: The new album Belong didn't groove me too much, but I liked it more than their debut. But here is the real killer track on it. Totally indulgent 80s pop grooves.<br /><br /><b>The Tallest Man on Earth </b>- Weather of a Killing Kind: And more new stuff! This one from... Adult Swim? We'll take it!<br /><br /><b>Theophilus London </b>- Why Even Try (<b>RAC </b>Remix): Yes yes, I love RAC...<br /><br /><b>Yellow Ostrich </b>- Mary (alternate): A more traditional take on this great track off the LP The Mistress.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS:</b><br /><br />Abigail Washburn - City Of Refuge<br />Black Eagle Child - Families Get Together<br />Black Eagle Child - The River's Course<br />Black Fabio - Black Fabio ft J.

NUFF SAID. New album soon...<br /><br /><b>Bright Archer </b>- Hidden Systems: Classic singer/songwriter pop from the long-tread tradition, expertly accomplished and perfectly delightful. <br /><br /><b>Frida Sundemo </b>- I Was Surrounded: More amazing female pop bliss.<br /><br /><b>Jeffrey Lewis & The Junkyard </b>- Slogans: "'Em Are I" (ooo clever I see what you did there) came out in 2009, but I just found this now. This is the same guy that put out the brilliant cover of End Result, and it has a similar hypnotically enchanting quality. A certain niavete that you can't help but go with, like Daniel Johnson.<br /><br /><b>John Lamonica </b>- Wolf Protestor: Whispy multi-tracked folk goodness.<br /><br /><b>Nguzunguzu </b>- Mirage (<b>Brenmar </b>Remix): Nguzunguzu is fast becoming one of my favourite producers of 2011.<br /><br /><b>Nicolas Jaar </b>- Hage Chahine ft sax by <b>Will Epstein</b><br /><b>Nicolas Jaar </b>- Materials: SPEAKING OF AMAZING PRODUCERS OF 2011, GUHHHHHHHHH....<br /><br /><b>Noah and the Whale </b>- Blue Skies (<b>The Twelves </b>Remix): The Twelves hit it on the head again. They have consistently put out the best pop remixes for a few years and are the shiny happy face of the joy that electronic music can bring. <br /><br /><b>Painted Palms </b>- I Will Truck (<b>Dirty Projectors </b>cover): People get points for even TRYING to cover The Dirty Projecttors, triple bonus points for doing such a damn good job.<br /><br /><b>Papercutz </b>- Do Outro Lado Do Espelho (<b>Taylor Deupree </b>Remix): Papercutz first found there way around here on the blog20090809 update, but LO'! A Taylor Deupree remix. What? My microtonal ambient superstar crush is remixing? It's a shock I know, but it is totally lovely.<br /><br /><b>Patrick Wolf </b>- The City: I posted a remix of this way back when, but the remix is just so darn good.<br /><br /><b>Substance B </b>- Dora Au Collège Fou Fou Fou: HEY WHO REMEMBERS DRILL N BASS? Well fuck you, I do and those were damn good times. Soooo goooood.<br /><br /><b>Supreme Cuts </b>- Amnesia: Bass and chopped vox, shake and serve.<br /><br /><b>The Joy Formidable </b>- Greyhounds In The Slips ft Paul Draper<br /><b>The Joy Formidable </b>- My Beerdrunk Soul is Sadder than a Hundred Dead Christmas Trees: Remember me raving about this band back in 2010?

Why can't he rhyme about something awesome, like food?" Then ACtion Bronson is your dream come true. He's ace on the mic, and apparently saving up for gourmet cooking classes. Dude likes food, and I think that's fucking awesome. The beats are so fun, the rhymes are so tight, it makes it easy enough to glide past any ignorant ish he says. One of the best hiphop releases of 2011. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.<br /><br /><b>Arcade Fire </b>- Culture War<br /><b>Arcade Fire </b>- Speaking in Tongues ft <b>David Byrne</b>: New Arcade Fire single! And thank goodness they unlocked the secret achievement: Get drunk, wake up naked in studio, find David Byrne there for some reason. Pro skills, baby. Pro skills.<br /><br /><b>Babe Rainbow </b>- Greed ft <b>Yung Clova </b>of G-Side<br /><b>Babe Rainbow </b>- Set Loose: The witch-house roots sounds continue to diminish in the world of dark electronica, and that is a good thing. Producers find their footing and are blowing me away with an excitement that reminds me of the dawn of Ninja Tune. Great stuff here, check the brand new Endless Path EP for moody electronica goodness.<br /><br /><b>Benjamin Francis Leftwich </b>- Don't Go Slow: After all the sweaty action above, let's get down to some lovely folk, from the new wonderfully evocative album titled "Last Smoke Before The Snowstorm".<br /><br /><b>Bogatzke </b>- So This Is Distance: Soothing synthy IDM from the Ulrich Schnauss school of long attacks and progessive developments.<br /><br /><b>Butterflies On Strings </b>- What Did John Stuart Mill Say Again: Phil Collins? When did you start an indiepop band? Good on you!<br /><br /><b>Flux Pavilion </b>- I Can't Stop: Back to some crazy dubstep with some of the fresest synth tweaking this side of 2011.<br /><br /><b>Grimes </b>- Vanessa: This track coverse so many stylistic bases, there has to be something for you to love! The squeaky voices, the dark synths, the lulling pop, chugging electropop beat... come on!<br /><br /><b>Kina Grannis </b>- White Winter Hymnal (Fleet Foxes cover): The classic track gets a faithful female rework.<br /><br /><b>Little Scream </b>- Boatman<br /><b>Little Scream </b>- Cannons: I heard many good things about "The Golden Record", but in the end I couldn't get in to it entirely. I like these tracks, but check the whole thing out if you're a Veda Hille fan, for reals. Quiky indie fun.<br /><br /><b>Macklemore </b>- Vipassana (<b>Ryan Lewis </b>Remix): Earnest raps don't hold up too well on repeated listens. Macklemore has tight flow and good writ, but often lacks the humour and twists of his idols (Sage Francis and Amosphere obviously) to keep you coming back. So maybe not for every day listening, but on occassion The VS. Redux will be the perfect record to go back to. Beats based off riffs from Beirut and Antony & The Johnsons? Solid. Rhymes and flow? Definitely. Everyone wishing he would drink again? yup.<br /><br /><b>Making Friendz </b>- Situation: Spunk from 60s girl-bands with the pop formlaties of modern garage, pulled off very well.<br /><br /><b>Mazes </b>- Vampire Jive: From "A Thousand Heys", this one is short, fun and a near perfect pop distillation.<br /><br /><b>Ryan Francis </b>- Etudes For Piano, I. Digital Sustain<br /><b>Ryan Francis </b>- Moonlight Fantasy, VII. Reverie<br /><b>Ryan Francis </b>- Wind-Up Bird Preludes, I. Overture: SOLO PIANO YO, IT'S THE NEXT HOTTEST BIGGEST THING EVARRRRRRRRRR. CHECK THE BLOGS FOR THE LATEST AND GREATEST PHAT SOUNDS OF.... yeah ok I don't listen to a lot of solo piano. But I near religiously give everything I see from Tzadik a quick sift. And wow. Just wow. The piano WORK on "Works For Piano" here seems barely human. And not in a "oh I'm grumpy Stockhausen and I hate my pianists so I will force them to grow a third hand to play atonal chords" garbage. But in a way that melds gorgeous dramatic playing with the uncanny voice in the back of your mind that doubts if this is done by a human. *checks liner notes* Yup, only one pianist, Vicki Chow, is listed. Recommended for fans of classical and contemporary music.<br /><br /><b>The Flaming Lips with Neon India </b>- Is David Bowie Dying: I haven't really been an ethused fan of Flaming Lips since the 90s, what with their devoid-of-critical-analysis & politics-free safe-for-straight-white-people psychedelia (redundant much?). But I like this release. There, I said it. I feel dirty. The Flaming Lips with Neon Indian is a mishmash of sound-building sessions that come together for me. Check it.<br /><br /><b>Toro Y Moi </b>- Freak Love (<b>Freddie Joachim </b>Remix): Toro gets drowned down by the crushing waves of beats, but tis a worthy sacrifice for the good of the crew. yar.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Action Bronson - Moonstruck<br />Action Bronson - The Madness<br />Arcade Fire - Culture War<br />Arcade Fire - Speaking in Tongues ft David Byrne<br />Babe Rainbow - Greed ft Yung Clova of G-Side<br />Babe Rainbow - Set Loose<br />Benjamin Francis Leftwich - Don't Go Slow<br />Bogatzke - So This Is Distance<br />Butterflies On Strings - What Did John Stuart Mill Say Again<br />Flux Pavilion - I Can't Stop<br />Grimes - Vanessa<br />Kina Grannis - White Winter Hymnal (Fleet Foxes cover)<br />Little Scream - Boatman<br />Little Scream - Cannons<br />Macklemore - Vipassana (Ryan Lewis Remix)<br />Making Friendz - Situation<br />Mazes - Vampire Jive<br />Ryan Francis - Etudes For Piano, I.

You should all definitely check him out.<br /><br />Anyways, back to the music. And really, I think I read somewhere that you aren't supposed to release things on a Friday, but fuckit, yr on my time now.<br /><br /><br /><b>Alex Winston </b>- Locomotive (Jaybird Remix): It might seem goofy, but I've been dropping SisterWife wherever I can, and it delights me to find more of her stuff getting the 21st century bass flip.<br /><br /><b>Andy Stott </b>- Execution<br /><b>Andy Stott </b>- North To South: CRANK THAT SUBWOOFER. Holy shit people, I am not sure if it's an album or an EP, but the release "Passed Me By" is blowing my mind.<br />Gone are the days of abstract dub where you could just poop reverb on a click track. This here is precise and gloriously dark and spooky. Highly recommended.<br /><br /><b>Bellows </b>- Handcut 05: Remember back when you were making out in the basement and Denzel + Huhn's Time Is A Good Thing was on the hi-fi? Those were good times, and you can dive in to that fuzzy nostalgia with this here new LP "Handcut". Perfectly subtle in a way that will never bust its illusions, and wonderfully hypnotic. Recommended for ambient and soundart fans.<br /><br /><b>Dirty Gold </b>- Overboard<br /><b>Dirty Gold </b>- Quiet Life: The Roar EP is a near-perfect nugget of pleasant indie rock. I can't wait until a full length.<br /><br /><b>E-Dubble </b>- Be A King: MPC2000s are long gone, and now you can immediately hear when people are slapping default Beat Repeats on a track in Ableton, but still this track is hot. And on PJ Harvey, no less!<br /><br /><b>Elite Gymnastics </b>- Here, In Heaven 2<br /><b>Elite Gymnastics </b>- Omamori 2: No, I won't write your stupid name with the extra stupid spaces. Stupidface.<br />These are from the chopped and screwed version of the EP, same tracks, more fuckery. <br /><br /><b>Finley Quaye </b>- Even After All: This goes back like a decade and a half, but I just stumbled on it randomly. So very subtle and ingeniously smooth.<br /><br /><b>Ghostface Killah & Max Tannone </b>- Danger 500<br /><b>Ghostface Killah & Max Tannone </b>- Make It N.Y.: Yes yes, Ghostface is a bit of a dick. But he spits tight and the premise here really works. Tannone flips Afro-Funk classics for a rambunctiously fun album. Highly recommended if you like Wu-tang stylings and/or afro funk.<br /><br /><b>Iròi </b>- Usual Pop Line (<b>Populous </b>Remix): Electro pop needs more finger snaps~~!!!<br /><br /><b>J Mascis </b>- Is It Done: I STILL have not heard the new LP "Several Shades of Why", but I was passed this other track from the Dinosaur Jr. frontman and again, I am very impressed. This guy will go on to be the next Neil Young.<br /><br /><b>J Rabbit </b>- aMorejo: Again, no idea what is going on here, but it's fucking beautiful. The whole experience of it reminds me of the most heartfelt tracks from Pizzicato Five.<br /><br /><b>Phil Cook and His Feat </b>- Ballad Of A Hungry Mother: Nothing but smooth and gorgeous insturmental pickins....<br /><br /><b>Phoenecia </b>- Frendano: I barely remember Demissions... but hey, we have an obvious trend. If you were a turn-of-the-century IDM musician you either A) gave up and had children B) started singing or C) started doing abstract sound scapes.<br />These are all rather awesome choices.<br /><br /><b>Seekae </b>- Gnor: Speaking of turn-of-the-century IDM...<br /><br /><b>Taylor Deupree </b>- Journal: And we'll leave you with someone who was never a turn-of-the-century IDM musician, and who has only ever given us the most blissful of soundscapes! From the amazing new EP Journal.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS:</b><br /><br />Alex Winston - Locomotive (Jaybird Remix)<br />Andy Stott - Execution<br />Andy Stott - North To South<br />Bellows - Handcut 05<br />Dirty Gold - Overboard<br />Dirty Gold - Quiet Life<br />E-Dubble - Be A King<br />Elite Gymnastics - Here, In Heaven 2<br />Elite Gymnastics - Omamori 2<br />Finley Quaye - Even After All<br />Ghostface Killah & Max Tannone - Danger 500<br />Ghostface Killah & Max Tannone - Make It N.Y.<br />Iròi - Usual Pop Line (Populous Remix)<br />J Mascis - Is It Done<br />J Rabbit - aMorejo<br />Phil Cook and His Feat - Ballad Of A Hungry Mother<br />Phoenecia - Frendano<br />Seekae - Gnor<br />Taylor Deupree - Journal<br /><br /><br />Time to watch the stars fall right in to us: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110805.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110805.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-3617359407337623288?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-62555599331835680432011-08-02T21:07:00.000-04:002011-08-02T21:07:15.365-04:00MP3 blog 2011/08/02blog 2011/08/02 - taking you all with me as everything fails<br /><br /><b>Beirut </b>- East Harlem<br /><b>Beirut </b>- Goshen<br /><b>Beirut </b>- The Peacock: BEST ALBUM OF 2011 SO FAR. NUFF SAID.<br />YOU HEARD? SO FUCKING GOOD. GET IT NOW.<br /><br /><b>Breakbot </b>- Fantasy ft <b>Ruckazoid </b>(<b>Video Village </b>Remix): Stripped down Michael Jackson pop grooves. Surprising restraint for ultimate seduction effect.<br /><br /><b>Cass McCombs </b>- The Lonely Doll: Sedate campfire folk, "Wit's End" stays true to 70s melodic folk. It's not quite grabbing me, but this track is a winner.<br /><br /><b>Friends </b>- Friend Crush (<b>Phone Tag </b>Mix): The vocalist reminds me of the woman from The Concrets, but with some more uptempo sleepy beats.<br /><br /><b>Hospital Ships </b>- Love or Death: This track reminds me of the old 90s "Alternative" comps on DGC. It's dripping with nostalgia of that era where Weezer were emerging and Flaming Lips went pop, and perfectly done.<br /><br /><b>Jill Barber </b>- A Wish Under My Pillow: It's hard to hear ukulele without thinking "hipster cliche", but oh when that oboe comes in you know she is totally sincere and fully committed to the astute charms of a century ago. New album is "Mischievous Moon", but I haven't heard it all yet.<br /><br /><b>Jürgen Müller </b>- Sea Bed Meditation: From the new album "Science of the Sea", we have so lo-fi computer xylophone ambience action.<br /><br /><b>Man Man </b>- Dark Arts<br /><b>Man Man </b>- Knuckle Down: Life Fantastic is no Six Demon Bag, but hey, nothing else is and will ever be again, so let's get over it. It doesn't grab me entirely, but 50% of it is exactly what you are looking for, so def pick it up if you are a fan.<br /><br /><b>Mitten </b>- All That I've Got: Bouncy electro pop from "See You Bye".<br /><br /><b>Octane & DLR ft TMT </b>- Red Tape: Hot on the heels of the crunchy bass of Eskmo and Amon Tobin, we have a new wave of mutant dubstep I hereby dub: bassfetish.<br /><br /><b>O'Death </b>- Howling Through<br /><b>O'Death </b>- Pushing Out: With a name like O'Death, you'd expect pure and traditional folk. It covers some of that territory, but slips in to some slightly more frenetic and poppy sounds ala The Dodos as well. The new album Outside is pretty darn swell.<br /><br /><b>Pusha T</b> - Trouble On My Mind ft <b>Tyler, The Creator</b>: I am just waiting for Tyler to come out with the dopest album of 2012 just called "Cocksucker", with his mug smiling on the cover and all like "WHAT!"<br /><br /><b>Rhys Chatham </b>- Outdoor Spell: The new album Outdoor Spell is hypnotic and enchanting, but in a totally beguiling way that is a vast departure from the Branca-ian guitars of past. Highly recommended for fans of avant jazz and Terry Riley.<br /><br /><b>Sleep 8 Over </b>- Casual Diamond: Whispy nighttime lullaby sleeptown pop grind.<br /><br /><b>The Irrepressibles </b>- Forget The Past: OK, for certain this is for fans of Antony & The Johnsons. And I like to think the lyrics are "Nomi! Nomi!".<br /><br /><b>Washed Out </b>- Eyes Be Closed: Indie dreampop, from the new LP "Within and Without".<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Beirut - East Harlem<br />Beirut - Goshen<br />Beirut - The Peacock<br />Breakbot - Fantasy ft Ruckazoid (Video Village Remix)<br />Cass McCombs - The Lonely Doll<br />Friends - Friend Crush (Phone Tag Mix)<br />Hospital Ships - Love or Death<br />Jill Barber - A Wish Under My Pillow<br />Jürgen Müller - Sea Bed Meditation<br />Man Man - Dark Arts<br />Man Man - Knuckle Down<br />Mitten - All That I've Got<br />Octane & DLR ft TMT - Red Tape<br />O'Death - Howling Through<br />O'Death - Pushing Out<br />Pusha T - Trouble On My Mind ft Tyler, The Creator<br />Rhys Chatham - Outdoor Spell<br />Sleep 8 Over - Casual Diamond<br />The Irrepressibles - Forget The Past<br />Washed Out - Eyes Be Closed<br /><br /><br />We are waiting for the strength and assistance to end this for now: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110802.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110802.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-6255559933183568043?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-15118934955616852132011-07-28T17:42:00.000-04:002011-07-28T17:42:14.434-04:00MP3 blog 2011/07/28blog 2011/07/28 - a quickie...<br /><br /><b>Afrojack & R3hab </b>- Prutataaa: Epic trance house!<br /><br /><b>Givers </b>- Up Up Up: Clapalong pop explosion from the new album In Light.

Witch House no more, this is now in the realm of Crystal Castles and downtempo synthpop.<br /><br /><b>Natural Snow Buildings </b>- Chants Of Niflheim Part I: Their 2nd staggering album of the year, Chants Of Niflheim is a must have for any lovers of psychedelic experimental music.<br /><br /><b>New Look </b>- Ballad (<b>Koreless </b>Remix): You keep expecting the dubstep bass to slam in, and it is awesome because that never happens. Keep waiting, see for yourself.<br /><br /><b>Of Monsters And Men </b>- Little Talks: yes.<br /><br /><b>The Horrors </b>- Still Life: The new album is Skying and it sounds cleaner than before. Also, Morrissey.<br /><br /><b>The Very Best & Cee-Lo </b>- What Part Of Forever<br /><b>The Very Best & Rusko ft Vocal Slender & African Boy </b>- Africa To California Anthem: SUPER MOM. Seriously, that's the name of the new album dropped on mother's day. so awesome. And yes, it's amazing. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, because you can't beat the price of free.<br /><br /><b>The Wailin' Jennys </b>- All The Stars<br /><b>The Wailin' Jennys </b>- Storm Comin': Much of the new album "Bright Morning Stars" is a bit too adult-contemporary folk for me, but if you like your folk smooth and earnest, it might be for you. But I love these 2 songs.<br /><br /><b>Wu Lyf </b>- Heavy Pop: My favourite thing here is the vocals, falling somewhere between Perry Farrel and the guy from Cap n Jazz. Off the new album "Go Tell Fire To The Mountain".<br /><br /><b>Wugazi </b>- Last Chance For The Clientele Kid: Wu mashups abound! Wu-Tang meets Fugazi. Sound like it doesn't work? Well, it doesn't quite. A for effort, but only a few standouts on it. Go grab it for free and sift yourself. Maybe if I hadn't heard the Ghostfunk album first...?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Afrojack & R3hab - Prutataaa<br />Givers - Up Up Up<br />Gross Magic - Sweetest Touch<br />Grouplove - Colours (Xaphoon Jones Remix)<br />Hard Mix - Callers<br />Kimbra - Settle Down<br />LAKE R_DIO - I Wish You Could See In Technicolor, Too<br />Natural Snow Buildings - Chants Of Niflheim Part I<br />New Look - Ballad (Koreless Remix)<br />Of Monsters And Men - Little Talks<br />The Horrors - Still Life<br />The Very Best & Cee-Lo - What Part Of Forever<br />The Very Best & Rusko ft Vocal Slender & African Boy - Africa To California Anthem<br />The Wailin' Jennys - All The Stars<br />The Wailin' Jennys - Storm Comin'<br />Wu Lyf - Heavy Pop<br />Wugazi - Last Chance For The Clientele Kid<br /><br /><br />just fast enough to never quite get caught: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110728.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110728.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-1511893495561685213?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-2800602971102715902011-07-24T21:09:00.000-04:002011-07-24T21:09:22.396-04:00MP3 blog 2011/07/24blog 2011/07/24 - Your last warning, your only impression.<br /><br /><br /><b>Amazing Births </b>- Whelm: As far as I'm concerned this is synth drone done right. Some of the best hints of Reich, Fripp, and Emeralds to be found here. Off the new album Younger Moon.<br /><br /><b>Amtrac </b>- Venice: Sunshine bouncey beats! Feeeeeels goooooood.<br /><br /><b>Black Mountain </b>- Lucy Brown<br /><b>Black Mountain </b>- Shelter: So I recently discovered this 7" from 2008 that I hadn't heard before. Turns out, this is some of my favourite Black Mountain stuff ever. I fucking love it. And who can't relate to their parents finding their stash?<br /><br /><b>Florence & The Machine vs Carbon Based Lifeforms </b>- Cosmic Lifeforms: A surprisingly good mash! 90s techno-lite ambience mixed with Florence for a smooth-yet-epic late night chiller.<br /><br /><b>Half Japanese </b>- Firecracker<br /><b>Half Japanese </b>- This Could Be The Night<br /><b>Jad Fair </b>- Dead Men Walks: Epic. Simply epic. The new 3 CD collection "Beautiful Songs: The Best Of Jad Fair" is a history lesson and challenge and total indulgence. So so so good for those of us that grew up with atonal avant jangley outsider rock. A total oddball classic.<br /><br /><b>Horse Feathers </b>- Belly of June<br /><b>Horse Feathers </b>- Thistled Spring: Don't immediately dismiss it because of the earnestness, because that becomes part of it's charm! From "Thistled Spring", the production is lush and rollicking and tender.<br /><br /><b>Kodak to Graph </b>- I Keep Holding On: Sugar coated Jackson 5 chopped and looped for your ecstasy.<br /><br /><b>Ricardo Villalobos & Max Loderbauer </b>- Reannounce<br /><b>Ricardo Villalobos & Max Loderbauer </b>- Recat: The new album is "Re:ECM" and I have to admit, I feel like I am supposed to be loving it much more than I am. I like these tracks. I like a few other tracks on here too, but the thought of Villalobos digging my holy grail ECM catalouge and reworking it is an IDEA that I love moreso than the execution. I feel like it is my duty to gush over this album, but in truth I find a lot of it leaves me really cold. Sift for the gems.<br /><br /><b>STS </b>- STSisGOLD: Uhhh yeah total hotness here.<br /><br /><b>Sunosis </b>- Bleeder: Slick, if not standard, IDM from the 2007 album Warmed.<br /><br /><b>The Naked & The Famous </b>- Young Blood (<b>Futurecop</b>! Remix): I posted the original back in post blog20100923, but if there was an ecstatic pop snog just begging for a ecstatic housey rework, well you know the rest.<br /><br /><b>Vanessa Carlton </b>- Carousel: It might be weird to say, but the melodic structure of this song kind of reminds me of They Might Be Giants. They should really cover this song. From the new album "Rabbits on the Run".<br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Amazing Births - Whelm<br />Amtrac - Venice<br />Black Mountain - Lucy Brown<br />Black Mountain - Shelter<br />Florence & The Machine vs Carbon Based Lifeforms - Cosmic Lifeforms<br />Half Japanese - Firecracker<br />Half Japanese - This Could Be The Night<br />Horse Feathers - Belly of June<br />Horse Feathers - Thistled Spring<br />Jad Fair - Dead Men Walks<br />Kodak to Graph - I Keep Holding On<br />Ricardo Villalobos & Max Loderbauer - Reannounce<br />Ricardo Villalobos & Max Loderbauer - Recat<br />STS - STSisGOLD<br />Sunosis - Bleeder<br />The Naked & The Famous - Young Blood (Futurecop! Remix)<br />Vanessa Carlton - Carousel<br /><br /><br />flick flick flick flick and one day we'll have the future's attention: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110724.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110724.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-280060297110271590?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-65855120354835598282011-07-19T00:06:00.000-04:002011-07-19T00:06:41.629-04:00MP3 blog 2011/07/18blog 2011/07/18 - So much bass in your face, that it is actually a serious problem that we should have medical intervention for.<br /><br /><br /><b>Atlas Genius </b>- Trojans: Feel good pop in a world that has come to grips with Vampire Weekend.<br /><br /><b>Cults </b>- Bad Things: Another great new Cults track, mining the cuteness of 60s girlpop. I wish we could get this album without the needless indulgences of actually putting in cult-leader quotes. What's the point?<br /><br /><b>Darq E Freaker </b>- Waka x Cherryade (<b>Sinden </b>Edit): Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh HOLY BANGER. Fucking sweet.<br /><br /><b>Death Grips </b>- Lord of the Game ft <b>Mexican Girl</b>: Take the hardcore beats above and UP THAT ANTE. Another banging track from the new LP Exmilitary. I like a few of the tracks, but like comparable efforts ala Brotherhood Of The Bomb, some Antipop, etc, get the album, sift for the gems.<br /><br /><b>Die & Interface ft William Cartwright </b>- Bright Lights (<b>Rockers </b>Mix): This stuff is like the perky cheerleader version of D&B.<br /><br /><b>Eskmo </b>- Moving Glowstream (<b>Amon Tobin </b>Remix)<br /><b>Eskmo </b>- We Got More (Video Edit): Tobin and Eskmo have been sharing aesthetics in the past few years, but Amon Tobin's newfound soundart love shows up in this remix in full force. And yes, the Eskmo video edit is better than the full length track. Just enough of the stompa-stompa-stomp,.<br /><br /><b>Gatekeeper </b>- Rawtones: Speaking of stompy business, Gatekeeper gives us the refined videogame aestetic of that hard dubsteppy love.<br /><br /><b>Gramatik </b>- So Much For Love: Top track of solid downtempo breakbeat off the new Beatz & Pieces Vol 1.<br /><br /><b>Hackney Colliery Band </b>- Africa (<b>Chrome</b>'s Yum Yum Version) (Toto cover): yeah, it's even better as an instrumental.<br /><br /><b>Jamie Woon </b>- Lady Luck<br /><b>Jamie Woon </b>- Middle<br /><b>Jamie Woon </b>- Spirits: Jamie Woon is pop exemplified. With a bit of slinkiness coming from the James Blake/Weeknd electro-rnb world, it's all pop glory for this guy. Like Jimmy Tenor meets Weeknd.<br /><br /><b>Jhameel </b>- I Am The Silhouette: Speaking of pop beats, here's another glittery Jhameel track for you to paste to your ceiling and stare at dreamily.<br /><br /><b>Kangding Ray </b>- Leavaila Scheme: New album is "OR", and I am digging this dark IDMey track on it.<br /><br /><b>Ki:Theory </b>- Holiday Heart: Chanty pop rock yes!<br /><br /><b>Lisbeth Scott & Nathan Barr </b>- Sancto Erico (<b>True Blood </b>OST): Ha ok so I had to pull something from the True Blood soundtrack. :)<br /><br /><b>Noah And The Whale </b>- Tonight's the Kind of Night (<b>RAC </b>Mix): Leave it to RAC to take a band I haven't been feeling for a while, put a twist on it, and make the goodness flow.<br /><br /><b>Toy Camera </b>- Tall Trees: Like jj, but with more soul and bass!<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Atlas Genius - Trojans<br />Cults - Bad Things<br />Darq E Freaker - Waka x Cherryade (Sinden Edit)<br />Death Grips - Lord of the Game ft Mexican Girl<br />Die & Interface ft William Cartwright - Bright Lights (Rockers Mix)<br />Eskmo - Moving Glowstream (Amon Tobin Remix)<br />Eskmo - We Got More (Video Edit)<br />Gatekeeper - Rawtones<br />Gramatik - So Much For Love<br />Hackney Colliery Band - Africa (Chrome's Yum Yum Version) (Toto cover)<br />Jamie Woon - Lady Luck<br />Jamie Woon - Middle<br />Jamie Woon - Spirits<br />Jhameel - I Am The Silhouette<br />Kangding Ray - Leavaila Scheme<br />Ki:Theory - Holiday Heart<br />Lisbeth Scott & Nathan Barr - Sancto Erico (True Blood OST)<br />Noah And The Whale - Tonight's the Kind of Night (RAC Mix)<br />Toy Camera - Tall Trees<br /><br /><br />We were all together and all so alone: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110718.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110718.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-6585512035483559828?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-25075930316434477892011-07-14T22:12:00.000-04:002011-07-14T22:12:24.298-04:00<a href=http://thetastates.com/images/pb2-20110722.jpg><img src=http://thetastates.com/images/pb2-20110722.jpg width=400></a><br /><br /><a href=http://divergencemovienight.com/dmn_ottawa.jpg><img src=http://divergencemovienight.com/dmn_ottawa.jpg width=400></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-2507593031643447789?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-46475032118153790882011-07-13T23:49:00.000-04:002011-07-13T23:49:11.087-04:00MP3 blog 2011/07/13blog 2011/07/13 - the glory of the sweltering respite<br /><br /><b>Big K.R.I.T. </b>- Country Shit (Remix)<br /><b>Big K.R.I.T.</b> - My Sub<br /><b>Big K.R.I.T. </b>- R4 Theme Song: The Return of 4Eva is the best hiphop album of 2011 so far. It's long and strong all the way through. This guy has all the bases (basses?) covered and holy shit I never thought I'd see the day where a 85 minute hiphop album would keep me entranced the whole way through. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.<br /><br /><b>Broken Bells </b>- Meyrin Fields: The whole Meyrin Fields EP is a bit meh, but this song is great in a we-love-Yeasayer way.<br /><br /><b>Cults </b>- Abducted<br /><b>Cults </b>- Oh My God: OK OK, the band is super douchey, but the some of the songs are pretty good. From the new self-titled album.<br /><br /><b>Free Agents Brass Band </b>- We Made It Through That Water (<b>Treme OST</b>)<br /><b>Rebirth Brass Band </b>- Feel Like Funkin' It Up (<b>Treme OST</b>)<br /><b>Soul Rebels Brass Band </b>- Drinka Little Poison (4 U Die) (<b>Treme OST</b>): Uhh yeah the Treme soundtrack is kind of awesome. Kinda sorta amazing awesome.<br /><br /><b>Jhameel </b>- Foundation<br /><b>Jhameel </b>- Love Me Twice: The new EP is just titled "Dance". Pretty straightforward. Yup, great little dance pop songs with judicious autotune, but it's kind of perfect in its own way, like an even more poppy Passion Pit. Get the EP!<br /><br /><b>Keren Ann </b>- My Name Is Trouble (<b>Walter Sobcek </b>Remix): Uhhhh the singing here kind of makes me wet myself in a way I haven't been since Marina And The Diamonds came along.<br /><br /><b>Maggie Eckford </b>- For What It's Worth: Fabulous pop from the 2010 album "For What It's Worth".<br /><br /><b>Marsen Jules </b>- A Moment of Grace<br /><b>Marsen Jules </b>- Sleep My Brother, Sleep: Like the Pop Ambient records, a new Marsen Jules record is like clockwork. Pleasing pulses and washes of strings and reverb, as per usual. Nostalgia doesn't really break any new ground, but if you're a Marsen Jules fan like me, you like ground nice and cozy and not going anywhere but sleeeeeeeeeeep.<br /><br /><b>Radian </b>- Git Cut Noise: From the 2009 album Chimeric, I love the texture and development of this piece.<br /><br /><b>SBTRKT </b>- Wildfire: Soulful steppy bass!<br /><br /><b>The Mountain Goats </b>- High Hawk Season: Oh I just love the acapella goodness here.<br /><br /><b>The National </b>- Exile Vilify: So apparently this is from the Portal 2 videogame? What the hell! That's rad. Videogame companies, commission more fabulous music!<br /><br /><b>Young Galaxy </b>- Firestruck: I went back to their 2009 album Invisible Republic and it's fabulous. But then the end comes with this song and it's all tears and wobbly knees goodness.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Big K.R.I.T. - Country Shit (Remix)<br />Big K.R.I.T. - My Sub<br />Big K.R.I.T. - R4 Theme Song<br />Broken Bells - Meyrin Fields<br />Cults - Abducted<br />Cults - Oh My God<br />Free Agents Brass Band - We Made It Through That Water (Treme OST)<br />Jhameel - Foundation<br />Jhameel - Love Me Twice<br />Keren Ann - My Name Is Trouble (Walter Sobcek Remix)<br />Maggie Eckford - For What It's Worth<br />Marsen Jules - A Moment of Grace<br />Marsen Jules - Sleep My Brother, Sleep<br />Radian - Git Cut Noise<br />Rebirth Brass Band - Feel Like Funkin' It Up (Treme OST)<br />SBTRKT - Wildfire<br />Soul Rebels Brass Band - Drinka Little Poison (4 U Die) (Treme OST)<br />The Mountain Goats - High Hawk Season<br />The National - Exile Vilify<br />Young Galaxy - Firestruck<br /><br /><br />I have room just for a few more, bring your own pillow: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110713.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110713.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-4647503211815379088?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-79293699097841476002011-07-04T21:34:00.000-04:002011-07-04T21:34:14.781-04:00MP3 blog 2011/07/04blog 2011/07/04 - early to rise, early to nap.<br /><br /><br /><b>A.M. Architect </b>- The Bull Of Heaven<br /><b>A.M. Architect </b>- Upon: 2 tracks of smooth downtempo from 2009's The Road To The Sun.<br /><br /><b>Acid House Kings </b>- Would You Say Stop (Perfect Nines Remix): One of the most wildly mis-named bands delivers some textbook pop precision.<br /><br /><b>Barn Owl </b>- Shadowland: Title track of moody post-rock guitar atmospherics from the new LP.<br /><br /><b>Batwings Catwings </b>- Endless Summer (<b>Jacob Safari </b>Remix): Like taking Yeah Yeah Yeahs in to a sampler, tossing on some distortion, and cranking the gain.<br /><br /><b>Blackbird Blackbird </b>- Euphoria: The most straightforward and IDM-lite track from the yet, gets all the claps and clutter just right.<br /><br /><b>Chad VanGaalen </b>- Sara: From the new album Diaper Island, I like this track a bunch. And that's the thing, there are always VanGaalen tracks I like a bunch, but I never really want to listen to any of his albums more than twice. Booo on me.<br /><br /><b>Chocolate MC </b>- (unknown track): Don't know the name, but here's some random hot ish from Cuba for you.<br /><br /><b>Chrissy Murderbot </b>- Break U Off<br /><b>Chrissy Murderbot </b>- The Vibe Is So Right ft MC Zulu: This guy proved to the world that he has digested pretty much every dance style known to the world via his weekly mix series that went from Quebec late 70s disco to ragga jungle to deep techno. His new album Women's Studies is the result of his research, that the pinnacle of music can be found in juke and booty. WTF. Some seriously good beats on this cultural anomaly.<br /><br /><b>Clams Casino </b>- Gorilla<br /><b>Clams Casino </b>- Natural: 2 tracks of dreamy-witchy downtempo from the brand new Rainforest EP.<br /><br /><b>Gang Gang Dance </b>- Chinese High<br /><b>Gang Gang Dance </b>- Glass Jar: HOLY SHIT THIS IS AWESOME. It's like if the woman from The Sundays got inspired to make music again after going to a The Boredoms concert. SO HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Just listen to the epic build of Glass Jar!!!<br /><br /><b>Left Lane Cruiser </b>- Giving Tree: I love the bluesy recordings where the FUZZ BOX alone is constantly threatening to entirely overtake the vocals... AND the guitars. all hail the whirling organ. From the perfectly titled LP Junkyard Speed Ball.<br /><br /><b>Saigon </b>- Clap ft <b>Faith Evans</b>: Epic.

Within the new album Feel It Break lays some fabulous synthpop that combines the lushness of Young Galaxy with vocals that maybe kinda sorta maybe remind you of The Knife. Recommended!<br /><br /><b>Bon Iver </b>- Beth / Rest: The closing track of the fabulous new self-titled album, it is a vaseline-soaked pastel painting of mid-80s synth and bravado, new again for the 21st century. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.<br /><br /><b>Braids </b>- Plath Heart: The new album Native Speaker has been growing on me like a tree fungus. I feel it has the seeds of a minor Joanna Newsom-type genius. The songs are expansive like Newsom's latest efforts, and the vocals can sometimes hint at her most adorable of tendencies. But the roots are more firmly in indie rock, and the closest analouge that comes to mind would be Zola Jesus, for the mood and scope alone. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.<br /><br /><b>Dum Dum Girls </b>- Take Care Of My Baby<br /><b>Dum Dum Girls </b>- Wrong Feels Right: I hadn't been feeling them much before, but I kind of love the new EP "He Gets Me High". The best sounds of 60s girl bands and 90s rock fuse together in a great way here. Highly recommended.<br /><br /><b>Ezra Koenig </b>- Papa Hobo: Yes, the guy from Vampire Weekend.<br /><br /><b>Funeral Party </b>- Just Because: Just something something rocknroll...<br /><br /><b>Hollywood Holt </b>- The Show: I for one salute the age of more anal-sex & bondage samples in my hiphop.<br /><br /><b>Joe Pug & Strand of Oaks </b>- Hard Life (<b>Bonnie Prince Billy </b>cover): I can't remember, is this even more lowkey than the original?<br /><br /><b>Labyrinth Ear </b>- Walk on the Moon (<b>Arthur Russell </b>cover): The classic gets an honest tribute to it.<br /><br /><b>Okkervil River </b>- Hanging From A Hit<br /><b>Okkervil River </b>- Rider: How many amazing albums are out now? Oh well let me just say: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. "I Am Very Far" is genius. Sheer genius. Fucking amazing. Buy it now. Yes.<br /><br /><b>Peacetreaty </b>- Change (<b>Flinch </b>Remix): I don't listen to much treble-attack dubstep, but I do love the synths in this one. One of the few slam-it-all-on dubstep tracks that I've been loving.<br /><br /><b>Scott Hutchinson & Rod Jones </b>- I Forgot the Fall: YES! That is the guy from Frightened Rabbit. Why do you ask?<br /><br /><b>Shabazz Palaces </b>- An Echo From The Hosts That Profess Infinitum: Hotness from the new album Black Op.<br /><br /><b>Teen Daze </b>- Surface: Off of "A Silent Planet".<br /><br /><b>Wild Beasts </b>- Burning<br /><b>Wild Beasts </b>- Invisible: I didn't get in to the last Wild Beasts album, and I didn't really care for the new one (Smother) much either, but these two simmering tracks really struck a lovely chord with me.<br /><br /><b>Youth Lagoon </b>- July: Beautiful, new, and that is all for today.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS:</b><br /><br />Austra - Lose It<br />Austra - Shoot The Water<br />Bon Iver - Beth _ Rest<br />Braids - Plath Heart<br />Dum Dum Girls - Take Care Of My Baby<br />Dum Dum Girls - Wrong Feels Right<br />Ezra Koenig - Papa Hobo<br />Funeral Party - Just Because<br />Hollywood Holt - The Show<br />Joe Pug & Strand of Oaks - Hard Life (Bonnie Prince Billy cover)<br />Labyrinth Ear - Walk on the Moon (Arthur Russell cover)<br />Okkervil River - Hanging From A Hit<br />Okkervil River - Rider<br />Peacetreaty - Change (Flinch Remix)<br />Scott Hutchinson & Rod Jones - I Forgot the Fall<br />Shabazz Palaces - An Echo From The Hosts That Profess Infinitum<br />Teen Daze - Surface<br />Wild Beasts - Burning<br />Wild Beasts - Invisible<br />Youth Lagoon - July<br /><br /><br />it's raining, oh it's raining and why can't you feel at all: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110629.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110629.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-2923723625474573864?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-70985076429753261672011-06-23T22:45:00.000-04:002011-06-23T22:45:40.613-04:00JULY 8TH, ART SHOW + DANCE PARTY<a href="http://thetastates.com/images/20110708mid.jpg"><img src="http://thetastates.com/images/20110708web.jpg" width="400" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-7098507642975326167?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-27494628518759574812011-06-23T22:42:00.000-04:002011-06-23T22:42:24.067-04:00MP3 blog 2011/06/23blgo 2011/06/23 - wait what? hmmmm...<br /><br />Did we not do one of these already this week?

It's for the best.<br /><br />So does anyone still even get these on facebook now that I can't send messages? Has readership plummeted? Let me know if yr still around...<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Oh and if you are in Ottawa for July 8th, I'm throwing a big 2-part event. Art show from 8-11, dance party 11-2.

New album is called Love Battle.<br /><br /><b>Engineers </b>- What It's Worth (<b>Helios </b>Remix): I am a big Helios fan, and it's about time they got more remixes out! They are a bit like Ulrich Schnauss, but with less of a heavy foot on the fuzz pedal.<br /><br /><b>Friendly Fires </b>- Blue Cassette<br /><b>Friendly Fires </b>- Live Those Days Tonight (Tim Green Remix): Both from the new LP Pala, this is energetic synth pop at its best.<br /><br /><b>Geotic </b>- Union: Delicate idm resting on a basic plodding synth beat!<br /><br /><b>Germany Germany </b>- Dance<br /><b>Germany Germany </b>- Natural ft Donne: Last seen back in blog20110527, here are two more amazing Germany Germany tracks from the new album Adventures.<br /><br /><b>GS Boyz </b>- Stanky Legg (<b>Lunice </b>Remix): OK OK OK, how could I NOT??? FUCKING STANKY LEGG.<br /><br /><b>Headless Horseman </b>- 1chrd (<b>Blackbird Blackbird </b>Remix): With this and the Balam Acab, the worlds of dream pop and witch house just got closer.<br /><br /><b>jj </b>- Ice<br /><b>jj </b>- No One Can Touch Us Tonight: New album coming called No One Can Touch Us Tonight! Very excited. After rejuvenating themselves with their Kills mixtape, they are back in top pop form.<br /><br />Niva - Ghost In My Head: This track is like the last three songs, all added togther.<br /><br /><b>Oneohtrix Point Never </b>- Transmat Memories (<b>Hollagramz Spiral </b>Edit): Yeah totally did NOT expect to see OPN get a techhouse rework, but I'm not complaining. After people remixing David Lynch's song and even Spider Pig, anything's possible.<br /><br /><b>Purity Ring </b>- Lofticries: flipside on the dopetastic Ungirthed 7"! Grotesque beat mutation reveals seduction in the twisted machine.<br /><br /><b>Ryan Hemsworth </b>- Laboratory Ruins: chiptune style dramabreaks!<br /><br /><b>SebastiAn </b>- Embody (<b>DJ Premier </b>95 Break Remix): It is great to see both SebastiAn and DJ Premier in top form here.

This really makes me wish for a new Kid Koala album...<br /><br /><b>Aurelio </b>- Mayahuaba´<br /><b>Aurelio </b>- Wamada<br /><b>Aurelio </b>- Yurumei: Woah. Was NOT expecting this. This album totally kills it. This is full-on grin-inducing pop music and I have no idea what he's saying but hell, the joy comes through in the chords alone. Laru Beya is the album, and it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.<br /><br /><b>Austra </b>- Lose It (<b>Diamond Rings </b>Remix): Austra is snake-like pop music that shares references to The Knife and Bat For Lashes, but Diamoned Rings tosses in a Duran Duran beat and massages it up a tad for the dancefloor.<br /><br /><b>Bag Raiders </b>- Snake Charmer: Super sexy house with fabulous flute! Not enough of these ones.<br /><br /><b>Chase & Status </b>- Heavy ft <b>Dizzee Rascal</b><br /><b>Clare Maguire </b>- The Last Dance (<b>Chase & Status </b>Remix)<br /><b>Clare Maguire </b>- The Last Dance (<b>Danny Byrd </b>Remix): Chase & Status give a workshop on awesome beatage. And Danny Byrd gives a special guest lecture on flipping the same material in an entirely new way, working a pop song in to Happy Hardcore -esque vocals.<br /><br /><b>Cruel Cassette </b>- Lion: Another example of contemporary beats pulling the rug out from under you, the ragga loop is flipped in to something more resembling deep electro house and dream pop. Fabulous<br /><br /><b>Dntel </b>- Rather Be With You ft <b>Reverb Junkie</b>: So what, they're sampling old lost 78 RPM records of Portishead? New album out soon!<br /><br /><b>J Mascis </b>- Not Enough: Dinosaur Jr.'s brilliant frontman has pure rock n roll running through his beins. Well, that and blood. But he's kind enough to share and now he's doing some solo brilliance, and the new album is Several Shades of Why and I am so excited for it to come out! *giddy*<br /><br /><b>Okkervil River </b>- Walked Out On A Line: Another b-side, from the Mermaid single, more fabulous new O.R. to check.<br /><br /><b>Snowblink </b>- Ambergris: From the album Long Live, Ambergris has to be the coolest thing in the world. And this song is appropriately beautiful. GOOGLE IT.<br /><br /><b>The Weeknd </b>- High For This: yeah yeah yeah.<br /><br /><b>Thurston Moore </b>- Benediction<br /><b>Thurston Moore </b>- In Silver Rain With A Paper Key: Demolished Thoughts is as challenging as it is beautiful. There are no soaring guitar theatrics and walls of noise. But there is a contemplativeness and stillness that shows Moore as a fully matured songwriter.

Wonderful progressive electro.<br /><br /><b>Alexi Murdoch </b>- Blue Mind: From Time Without Consequence in 2006, this song has a hypnotice roots folk that combines the wonderfully lush Iron & Wine with the plodding Bill Callahan, to great effect.<br /><br /><b>Baths </b>- The Nothing: Baths drop a new single! And the crowds go wild!<br /><br /><b>Blue Sky Black Death </b>- Our Hearts Of Ruin<br /><b>Blue Sky Black Death </b>- Where Do We Go: Noir is the new album and it is quite amazing. The quality levels have been cranked up and here is some downtempo to rival even the storied productions of Bonobo. Kudos to them for sampling Windmills In Your Mind, but alas that doesn't pan our perfectly. But the ones that do hit, hit oh so hard. Highly recommended for downtempo and chillout fans worldwide.<br /><br /><b>Bonnie 'Prince' Billy & The Cairo Gang </b>- Island Brothers: Mr. Bonnie drops a new single of sing-a-long drinkin' twang on us!<br /><br /><b>Christian AIDS </b>- Fever: Dreampop meets witchhouse and returns home to electro pop. From the Life Before Death EP.<br /><br /><b>Earth </b>- Descent To The Zenith: I never heard it last year, so here is my first exposure to 2010's Angels of Darkness, Demons Of Light 1. This is the Earth I've come to expect, that salient cross between Dirty Three and a slightly perking Bohren Und Der House Of Gore. Smooth chillin'.<br /><br /><b>Geographer </b>- Kites: Gleefully fae electro pop! MY FAVES!<br /><br /><b>Grouper </b>- Alien Observer: Grouper are back with their most delightfully sing-songy album yet! Song structure! Vocals! Not just piles o reverb! New album is "A I A : Alien Observer"<br /><br /><b>Grouplove </b>- Gold Coast: Never heard this band before, but some great radio friendly poprock.<br /><br /><b>Junip </b>- Always (<b>Prefuse 73 </b>Remix): Jose Gonzalez gets an immaculate rework from Prefuse 73 that owes more to Amon Tobin's latest album than anything else. I am lovely the new movement of delicately crafted artbass coming up.<br /><br /><b>Nicki Minaj </b>- Roman's Revenge 2.0 ft <b>Lil Wayne</b>: Ignore the mix of this that actually has Busta on it, this is banger right here.<br /><br /><b>Parov Stelar </b>- Diamonds: Saxophones and house. 4evah. and evah.<br /><br /><b>Sgt. Sass </b>- Bang Out<br /><b>Sgt. Sass </b>- Jerk ft <b>Sugur Shane</b>: Hot tracks from the new Art Fggt/Fggt Art EP! Rides a fine line between Beans-esque tonal MCing and enough sassy faggotry to make it all work.<br /><br /><b>Vladislav Delay Quartet </b>- Des Abends<br /><b>Vladislav Delay Quartet </b>- Presentiment: Time for a thought experiment, if you will. Imagine Colin Stetson teaming up with Pan Sonic and special guests Bohren & Der Club Of Gore. Now manifest that in the form of one of the world's most experienced veteran experimental dub producers. OK, now go change your underwear. This new self titled album is a fucking mindstorm of genius. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. One of my top 3 experimental albums of the year so far, by far, forever.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Acid Pauli - Gefaellt Mir<br />Alexi Murdoch - Blue Mind<br />Baths - The Nothing<br />Blue Sky Black Death - Our Hearts Of Ruin<br />Blue Sky Black Death - Where Do We Go<br />Bonnie 'Prince' Billy & The Cairo Gang - Island Brothers<br />Christian AIDS - Fever<br />Earth - Descent To The Zenith<br />Geographer - Kites<br />Grouper - Alien Observer<br />Grouplove - Gold Coast<br />John & Beverly Martyn - John The Baptist<br />Junip - Always (Prefuse 73 Remix)<br />Nicki Minaj - Roman's Revenge 2.0 ft Lil Wayne<br />Parov Stelar - Diamonds<br />Sgt.

I gotta hit the road, gig in Philly this weekend.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>8in8 </b>- One Tiny Thing: The organ gives this indiepop a tiny baroque brazing, but the underpinnings is the soul-fed vocals and really it's fabulous all the way through. From the new album Nighty Night.<br /> <br /><b>Alela Diane & Wild Devine </b>- Of Many Colors: Tragedy! I had such high hopes for this album, but alas... This song is fabulous though. And if you haven't yet, be sure to check out the masterful LP To Be Still from 2009.<br /><br /><b>Bohren & der Club of Gore </b>- Zombies Never Die (Blues): Oh I love me some Bohren gore! The new (album? EP? It's 35 minutes long but only 3 tracks...) is Beileid and it even features horror-vocal-maestro Mike Patton. You got your doom in my jazz! You got your jazz in my sludge! You got your sludge all over the rug!<br /><br /><b>Donnis </b>- Eyes Low ft <b>Gorilla Zoe </b>& <b>Young Dro</b>: I am extremely critical of clubby hiphop, but dayyam even I find faults with this perfect little banger... I even like the chorus. wtf.<br /><br /><b>Eclectic Method & Chuck D </b>- Outta Sight: MOTHERFUCKING CHUCK D IS BACK ON THE TRACK. holy shit. nuff said.<br /><br /><b>Edwin Van Cleef </b>- Lisztomania ft <b>Jane Hanley </b>(<b>Phoenix </b>cover): Phoenix's addictive pop is given a nice little chanteuse pop reworking.<br /><br /><b>Fourcolor </b>- Frosted Mint<br /><b>Fourcolor </b>- Iris (Familiar): I flip through some many experimental electronic laptoppy albums that I am constant ready to hit fastforward and skip to the next disc, but this one beat the odds and sucked me in and offered me some fabulous works. The textures avoid the dubby and instead tinkle in that well-worn realm of ambient/idm DSP, but incorporate some fantastic layers of composition amongst it all. Very much recommended if you love beautiful ehtereal electronic soundscapes.<br /><br /><b>Fucked Up </b>- Queen Of Hearts<br /><b>Fucked Up </b>- Ship Of Fools: New album is David Comes To Life. So yeah, Canada pretty muchs run rock n roll these days. <br /><br /><b>Hauschka </b>- Girls: Another gorgeous track (see blog20110429) from the gorgeous album Salon des Amateurs.<br /><br /><b>Lykke Li </b>- I Know Places (<b>DJSB </b>Remix): Not that we are at all surprised, this number was just calling out for a mellowed-out dubstep rework. Expect and ye shall receive, quoth the inernet.<br /><br /><b>Okkervil River </b>- Wake and Be Fine: Another fabulous single from the new album I Am Very Far! Okkervil are back in tiptop form.<br /><br /><b>The Airplane Boys </b>- Born To Be<br /><b>The Airplane Boys </b>- Ice Age<br /><b>The Airplane Boys </b>- La Rude, Lord Of The Flies: Hipster rap doubled down. Like, seriously. Arcade Fire? Radiohead? beats circa Kanye's 808s & Heartbreak? And holy that Lord Of The Flies track is dope, Project Blowed references and all. All from the hot new album Where've You Been. I wasn't in to the whole thing, but the high-points are staggeringly good. Go buy it now.<br /><br /><b>Tsunenori </b>- Forest Bathing: Back to the lush idm basics: Prominent breakbeat, piano, strings. Perfect.<br /><br /><b>X Gets The Crest </b>- Slow It Down...........: Nicholas Jaar and Von Stroke gets some accompaniment in yr crates of woozybass. Fucking amazing.<br /><br /><b>Yohuna </b>- Mateo: Some washed out dream pop to close it all off.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />8in8 - One Tiny Thing<br />Alela Diane & Wild Devine - Of Many Colors<br />Bohren & der Club of Gore - Zombies Never Die (Blues)<br />Donnis - Eyes Low ft Gorilla Zoe & Young Dro<br />Eclectic Method & Chuck D - Outta Sight<br />Edwin Van Cleef - Lisztomania ft Jane Hanley (Phoenix cover)<br />Fourcolor - Frosted Mint<br />Fourcolor - Iris (Familiar)<br />Fucked Up - Queen Of Hearts<br />Fucked Up - Ship Of Fools<br />Hauschka - Girls<br />Lykke Li - I Know Places (DJSB Remix)<br />Okkervil River - Wake and Be Fine<br />The Airplane Boys - Born To Be<br />The Airplane Boys - Ice Age<br />The Airplane Boys - La Rude, Lord Of The Flies<br />Tsunenori - Forest Bathing<br />X Gets The Crest - Slow It Down...........<br />Yohuna - Mateo<br /><br /><br />I'll have one oyster po-boy with a side of naked: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110531.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110531.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-6322601597259369104?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-21443369534885387602011-05-27T16:34:00.001-04:002011-05-27T16:36:07.924-04:00MP3 blog 2011/05/27blog 2011/05/27 - the tides are rising and it is glory as they crest<br /><br />Big thanks to one Matthew S. who sent me a lovely book from my Wish List!<br />I got the amazing "Conceptual Art" book from the "Themes & Movements" series, which if you enjoy art is like getting a big bag of your favourite candy.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Alva Noto & Ryuichi Sakamoto </b>- Pioneer IOO: I have been drooling all over this duo since I got their first LP on transparent vinyl way back wehn. The new Summvs does not quite live up to my high expectations though, which much of the lingering melodic interplay of past records lost. Ah well. I still love this gorgeous track as a return to form.<br /><br /><b>Amon Tobin </b>- Goto 10<br /><b>Amon Tobin </b>- Journeyman: The new album Isam is chock full of meaty textures and soundscapes and mutant downtempo trickery that will warp your mind just a little bit. Amon Tobin seems gunning for more videogame soundtrack work as this album alone could easily have a game universe built around it. It isn't all my cup of tea though, and I'm not just saying that in a crotchety "OMG NINJA TUNE CHANGED FROM 16 YEARS AGO" kind of way.<br /><br /><b>BOA </b>- Push: Total straight-up pop giddiness!<br /><br /><b>Cults </b>- You Know What I Mean: Cults tone down the macabre and get a touch more Camera Obscura on this one.<br /><br /><b>EMA </b>- Milkman: From "Past Life Martyred Saints", this one owes a heavy thankyou to both Fever Ray and 90s alt-rock.<br /><br /><b>Germany Germany </b>- Just Go ft <b>Steffaloo</b>: Epic electro-lite! Complete with magical vocals, epic synth builds, and emotive guitar plucking!<br /><br /><b>Hazeem </b>- Devil's Pie (Remix)<br /><b>Hazeem </b>- Light My Fire<br /><b>Hazeem </b>- Synthopia: These just stumbled in my inbox from out of nowhere, and holy shit what a delight! Modest grooving soul? Mutant downtempo bass? Modern breakbeat? All of the above! From the album Planetary Hours.<br /><br /><b>Herr Styler </b>- Jack (<b>Fare Soldi Jackette </b>Remix): boom boom boom<br /><br /><b>Hundreds </b>- I Love My Harbour: Simple and beautiful, it reminds of my favourite singles by Console.<br /><br /><b>Johan Agebjörn </b>- Watch The World Go By (<b>Young Galaxy </b>Remix): OK, does the intro melody remind anyone else of the Teddy Ruxpin themesong? ??? ANYONE? Young Galaxy take a stab at this gorgeous song to lovely-yet-woozy results.<br /><br /><b>La Phaze </b>- Punglist vs King Kong Five (<b>La Phaze & Manu Chao</b>): JUNGLE! Oh how I missed you.<br /><br /><b>Outakst </b>- Bombs Over Baghdad (<b>3 Stripes Dubstep</b> Remix): OK, this is kind of the perfect song to remix like this. Hell yes. Bombs indeed.<br /><br /><b>Painted Palms </b>- All Of Us: Epic Animal Collective-cum-Yellow Ostrich indie janglepop from the Canopy EP.<br /><br /><b>Pance Party </b>- Rainbow Road: Wonderful electro in the vein of Linus Loves and Mylo.<br /><br /><b>Polarsets </b>- Sunshine Eyes (Channel Swimmer Mix): Electro pop always needs more epic strings.<br /><br /><b>Scientist vs Guido </b>- Korg Back Dub: The massively awesome Scientist Launches Dubstep Into Outer Space has to be one of my favourite cohesive albums to ever come out of the dubstep realm. The aesthetic has a cohesive rein on all of the sounds and it makes for such a smooth ride. Highly recommended for beatheads.<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Alva Noto & Ryuichi Sakamoto - Pioneer IOO<br />Amon Tobin - Goto 10<br />Amon Tobin - Journeyman<br />BOA - Push<br />Cults - You Know What I Mean<br />EMA - Milkman<br />Germany Germany - Just Go ft Steffaloo<br />Hazeem - Devil's Pie (Remix)<br />Hazeem - Light My Fire<br />Hazeem - Synthopia<br />Herr Styler - Jack (Fare Soldi Jackette Remix)<br />Hundreds - I Love My Harbour<br />Johan Agebjörn - Watch The World Go By (Young Galaxy Remix)<br />La Phaze - Punglist vs King Kong Five (La Phaze & Manu Chao)<br />Outakst - Bombs Over Baghdad (3 Stripes Dubstep Remix)<br />Painted Palms - All Of Us<br />Pance Party - Rainbow Road<br />Polarsets - Sunshine Eyes (Channel Swimmer Mix)<br />Scientist vs Guido - Korg Back Dub<br /><br /><br />And we wash away the filth to finds all kinds of exciting filth below: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110527.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110527.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-2144336953488538760?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Caitlyn / CPIhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14957995700816173613noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763393910283892685.post-29339685150694362382011-05-20T00:44:00.000-04:002011-05-20T00:44:56.021-04:00MP3 blog 2011/05/19blog 2011/05/19 - Hot shit tunes is the rocket fuel of the champions of out space<br /><br />whaaaaaaaaaaaaat???? FLOOD OF AWESOME ALBUMS ABOUND!<br /><br />BTW, if you missed it tonight you can still go see the new dance performance I did some sound for. check out the trailer here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cqOm5v5M0M<br />Friday's the last night!<br /><br /><br /><b>13 & God </b>- Armored Scarves<br /><b>13 & God </b>- Death Major<br /><b>13 & God </b>- Janu Are: AWESOME ALBUM ALERT. Holy shit this album is hot. It's a perfect back and forth between Marcus Acker and Dose One, a brain-wetting surge of dopamine-inducing folk and beats. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.<br /><br /><b>Apparat </b>- Ash; Black Veil: The albums drops in the fall this year, but in the meantime here is the new leaked single from Apparat! Gorgeous.<br /><br /><b>Battles </b>- Ice Cream ft <b>Matias Aguayo</b><br /><b>Battles </b>- Inchworm<br /><b>Battles </b>- Sweetie & Shag (Featuring <b>Kazu Makino</b>): The jury is still out on the new Battles LP Gloss Drop. It is just not as complex and hard as Mirrored, but the slightly relaxed tensions will probably make it even more enjoyable for a huge swathe of the population. Their lead vocalist is gone, but a wonderful array of guests fill in on vocal duties, including Gary Numan and our lord and saviour Eye Yamataka. You know what? Fuck it: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.<br /><br /><b>Bill Callahan </b>- One Fine Morning: New Bill Callahan! I have only been through Apocalypse once and it didn't quite grab me, but let me say this: It took me a YEAR to really "get" Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle. I am willing to be patient with this one. We owe it so much chaotic end-of-the-world devotion. If not only for this epic final track.<br /><br /><b>Death Grips </b>- Klink<br /><b>Death Grips </b>- Takyon (Death Yon): Finally! The modern link between Techno Animal's Brotherhood Of The Bomb, Onyx, Dalek, and saw-wave-grind dubstep production.<br /><br /><b>Des A Boda & Mr. Miyagi's Ghost </b>- Neon Retainer: *phew* after all that, time for a break with glowstick pop electro!<br /><br /><b>Emalkay </b>- Crusader<br /><b>Emalkay </b>- Fabrication: The latest LP Eclipse brings some of the hottest bass sounds forward since Eraldo Bernocchi & Blackfilm's Along The Corridors. If you are in to BASS, you totally need these tracks.<br /><br /><b>Fol Chen </b>- I Walked ft Simone White (<b>Sufjan Stevens </b>cover): Sufjan's somewhat morose "single" gets lounge-pop electro rework, and it's all the uber fun hotness you'd expect from Fol Chen. After their track In Ruins, you were just praying they'd crack open some Sufjan, weren't you?<br /><br /><b>Now, Now </b>- Neighbors: Great driving pop from last year's Neighbors.<br /><br /><b>Sister Crayon </b>- Stem (<b>Prefuse 73 </b>Duet Dub Version): Prefuse73 comes back in fine form with this little soulful rerub.<br /><br /><b>The Dismemberment Plan </b>- Memory Machine<br /><b>The Dismemberment Plan </b>- What Do You Want Me to Say: I have been going back and listening to classic albums! Guess what kiddos? Emergency & I is now CLASSIC ROCK! Yes, that's right, we're all terribley old.<br /><br /><b>The Dresden Dolls </b>- Girl Anachronism: Same as above, binging in to the back classic albums. I had to share. If you don't know their self-titled album, seek it out!<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />13 & God - Armored Scarves<br />13 & God - Death Major<br />13 & God - Janu Are<br />Apparat - Ash; Black Veil<br />Battles - Ice Cream ft Matias Aguayo<br />Battles - Inchworm<br />Battles - Sweetie & Shag (Featuring Kazu Makino)<br />Bill Callahan - One Fine Morning<br />Death Grips - Klink<br />Death Grips - Takyon (Death Yon)<br />Des A Boda & Mr. Miyagi's Ghost - Neon Retainer<br />Emalkay - Crusader<br />Emalkay - Fabrication<br />Fol Chen - I Walked ft Simone White (Sufjan Stevens cover)<br />Now, Now - Neighbors<br />Sister Crayon - Stem (Prefuse 73 Duet Dub Version)<br />The Dismemberment Plan - Memory Machine<br />The Dismemberment Plan - What Do You Want Me to Say<br />The Dresden Dolls - Girl Anachronism<br /><br /><br />Hurray hurray the rapture is here!

Dayyam, you can't trust facebook to tell you. SO SET UP YOUR NOTIFICATIONS!<br />------------------ thanks!<br /><br /><b>Anita Tijoux </b>- 1977: No idea what's going on here, but this is flavour!<br /><br /><b>Arms </b>- Heat & Hot Water (Passion Pit Remix): Totally over-the-top pop that takes the excesses of the 80s, dips it in some glistening Passion Pit synth, and just dares you to lick it.<br /><br /><b>Badbadnotgood </b>- The Medley (Bastard, Lemonade, AssMilk): Instrumental jazz renditions of tracks of the new Bastard LP. TOO SOON? At least El Michels Affair had given enough time for nostalgia to set in! <br /><br /><b>Bassnectar </b>- The 808 Track ft <b>Mighty High Coup</b>: Super grind synths don't often interest me, but Bassnectar slips out the occassional track that isjust too damn addictive, often with a catchy vocal sample. <br /><br /><b>Daft Punk </b>- Derezzed (<b>Bright Shades </b>Rework): The deep electro of the Tron soundtrack gets an appropriate ++dancefloor rework.<br /><br /><b>Hey Rosetta!</b> - New Sum (Nous Sommes)<br /><b>Hey Rosetta!</b> - Parson Brown (Upirngaangutuq Iqalunni)<br /><b>Hey Rosetta! </b>- Welcome: The new LP Seeds is quite awesome. It fills a place between that overwhelming Arcade Fire intensity and that seductively overwhelming Canadiana jam-folk of Ohbijou. And they pull it off fabulously. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Go see them on tour if you get a chance. This album will be with you all summer long.<br /><br /><b>Jesse Dangerously </b>- Cold Comfort<br /><b>Jesse Dangerously </b>- How Shall I Send Thee (Apt Pupil Remix): Humble & Brilliant is the new CD and it's now in physical and MP3 form. BUT it also comes with a zine, which is kind of perfect and awesome for an album like this.<br /><br /><b>Teen Daze </b>- Something<br /><b>Teen Daze </b>- Together: New singles from this dreampop-cum-downtempo group.<br /><br /><b>The Kills </b>- DNA: Oooo lovely bluesy rock track from the new album Blood Pressures. For those that want more Joan Jett in their life!<br /><br /><b>Tied & Tickled Trio and Billy Hart </b>- Ghost Allaround: Back to the jazz! T&TT hook up with Mr. Hart and the resulting album "La Place Demon" should appeal to many contemporary jazz fans. I just couldn't get in to a lot of it... but then THIS track hit me, right at the very end and it just swept me away. Fabulous.<br /><br /><b>TV On The Radio </b>- Caffeinated Consciousness<br /><b>TV On The Radio </b>- Will Do: I am on the record for being supremely bored and uninterested in TV On The Radio for the most part, but these two tracks off the new album Nine Types Of Light are prety darn irresistible. Let's hope the rest of the album keeps up the goodness.<br /><br /><b>White Hinterland </b>- Lucky Cloud: Taken off of the Fresh From The Garden Tour CD, I love this dreamy "little suzie's trapped down the well" kind of earthen folk music.<br /><br /><b>Wildlife </b>- Killing For Fun: And the dark folk takes a turn for the morose. HAPPY WEEKEND YOU MELANCHOLY PSYCHOPATHS!<br /><br /><br /><br /><b>THIS WEEK'S TRACKS</b><br /><br />Anita Tijoux - 1977<br />Arms - Heat & Hot Water (Passion Pit Remix)<br />Badbadnotgood - The Medley (Bastard, Lemonade, AssMilk)<br />Bassnectar - The 808 Track ft Mighty High Coup<br />Daft Punk - Derezzed (Bright Shades Rework)<br />Hey Rosetta! - New Sum (Nous Sommes)<br />Hey Rosetta! - Parson Brown (Upirngaangutuq Iqalunni)<br />Hey Rosetta! - Welcome<br />Jesse Dangerously - Cold Comfort<br />Jesse Dangerously - How Shall I Send Thee (Apt Pupil Remix)<br />Teen Daze - Something<br />Teen Daze - Together<br />The Kills - DNA<br />Tied & Tickled Trio and Billy Hart - Ghost Allaround<br />TV On The Radio - Caffeinated Consciousness<br />TV On The Radio - Will Do<br />White Hinterland - Lucky Cloud<br />Wildlife - Killing For Fun<br /><br /><br />Time to revamp my website, put my feet up, and train my cats to make me a snack plate: <a href="http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110512.zip">http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20110512.zip</a><br /><br /><br /><div style="margin: 0px;">Stay on top of everything new at <a href="http://djcpi.blogspot.com/">http://djcpi.blogspot.com</a></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">More info:</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/">DJ mixes</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/">Blog archives</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/CPI/8176899482">CPI fan page</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/33BOJ22WFF9B4/?&sort=priority">Buy me books</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><a href="http://www.last.fm/user/cpi23">Friend me on Last.FM to see what I am listening to</a></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;"><br /></div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">Enjoy!</div></div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div style="margin: 0px;">~CPI</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7763393910283892685-6580042468542863096?l=djcpi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>
