blog 2014/02/25 - all say yay
think of you ever: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140225.zip
Bonnie 'Prince' Billy & Angel Olsen - After I Made Love To You
Bonnie 'Prince' Billy & Angel Olsen - Three Questions: There's not a lot of love for the Now Here's My Plan EP, perhaps because it dredges old songs in new arrangements and people have some kind of FEELING about Oldham? Whatevs, I have feelings for Angel Olsen, she gets equal billing in my books.
Crnkn - Heart: Pitch down to the crushing sadness.
Different Sleep - Get Ahead: We've got your sullen bass, step right up.
Downliners Sekt - Benz: This is a soundtrack for when we are going to drag a good time out of you.
Emancipator - Natural Cause
Emancipator - Valhalla: Appropriately moody/grooving downtempo from an album called Dusk to Dawn.
GoldLink - The Heart: Woah, daddy issues. Tragic tragic daddy issues. Ouch.
Haciendo el Mal - Complicado: From the self-titled album, again I have no idea what is going on here but I am all smiles.
Koloto - Antares: That back-and-forth glitch filter makes this a deliriously happy bit of IDM sweetness.
Lullatone - The Biggest Pile Of Leaves You Have Ever Seen: Prepackaged carefree whimsy. Someone buy this for a bumper on your TV show about an adorable carefree hitchhiker.
Mt. Wolf - Life Size Ghosts (Catching Flies Remix): Oooo did I mention I loved pitched in vox?
Taylor Deupree - Sleepover: If you love warm textural ambience I really recommend this album, Lost In The Humming Air (Music Inspired By Harold Budd). Budd has had a fairly low profile since the 80s, but his influencing tendrils shine here.
The Haxan Cloak - Excavation (Part 2)
The Haxan Cloak - Mara: Excavation provides that sinister bass sound you always knew you needed.
World Class Art Thieves - All The Time: Fuck that darkness, time to get up and dance!
Xenia Rubinos - Ultima: Love the acapella scats all on this one.
Zak Downtown - City's Ours: Post-West world-conquering ish.

MP3 blog 2014/02/19
blog 2014/02/19 - all your accolades fade
so deep you can see the wobble: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140219.zip
Alina Baraz & Galimatias - Pretty Thoughts: The first that Galimatias appears on, this is just straight up smooth soul bass.
Farben - Swinn Off: I love mininmal tech that has awkard sounds melded with a warm kit, that invites you in but then revels in it's minor absurdities.
Four Tet - Ever Never (The Ninetys Remix): EVEN FOURTET IS TRAP NOW YOOOOOOOO.
Galimatias & Sorrow - Subside: Smoothed out mind swirling downtempo
Goat - Goatman
Goat - Run To Your Mama: World Music is a Northern European psycedelic swirl that might as well have been recorded in a San Jose basement or Tokyo high-rise: it is just love for the psych and fuzz and pomp. Recommended.
Hashim B - Tokyo To LA Steez: HNNNNGGG that taiko beat just kills me omg this track is wonderful.
James Ferraro - E 7
James Ferraro - Flamboyant
James Ferraro - SO N2U: After the Trecartin-infused masterpiece of Far Side Virtual, Ferraro cuts a rather accessible record of synth beats called Sushi and it is a great compromise between the warring factions in his head. Recommended
Jessica Rotter & Emily Colombier - Animal & Stay(mashup): Dual acoustic rendition mashup, GO!
John Surman - Kentish Hunting (Lady Margaret's Air): From The Amazing Adventures of Simon Simon, this is some storytelling jazz shit right here that takes you right in to the book.
Neil Halstead - Digging Shelters: Bittwersweet somber folk from the record Palindrome Hunches.
Paces - Julian (813 Remix)
Paces - Open Up Your Eyes (Chiefs Remix): This guy has the contemporary bass wrapped up in his funfur rave pants and holy shit he brought a strobe light a---
Perfect Pussy - Ii: A perfect storm.
Phoenix - Entertainment (Pyramid Remix): OK so I didn't get in to the last Phoenix album, but as long as chop it up and mix it in to the sauce it tastes pretty good.
The Eastern Sea - The Match: An epic chant to the wilderness!
Wet - No Lie (Noah Breakfast Remix ft Spank Rock)
Wet - U Da Best: These 2 tracks are perfect for their own special reasons and I am just going to roll around in them for a while.
Xxyyxx - Witching Hour: Our favourite chromosonal configuration will smooth it out at the end.

MP3 blog 2014/02/12
blog 2014/02/12- yes, good job, you did it, now again.
The chime signals your arbitrary reward: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140212.zip
Beyoncé - Superpower ft Frank Ocean: All the glory.
Califone - The Orchids: The best Califone songs spin a tapestry around me. A tapestry I wrap around myself. OK, I just snuggle under blankets with them.
Cepia - Ithaca: From the 2008 album Ghostly Swim, the sounds remind of
Cuff The Duke - Cold Blooded Old Times (Smog cover)
Cuff The Duke - Diamond Sea (Sonic Youth cover): The whole of it doesn't entice me, but these two covers from In Our Time are 2 of my favourite songs ever, and I always want a good go at them.
DC Zee - Whirlwind Booty: BOOTY BOOTY BOOTY BOOTY
Marble - L.L (Ta-ku Remix): Ta-ku rocks my breakbeat world oh so much.
Mississippi Fred Mcdowell - John Henry (live): A great track from the classic Live At the Gaslight from 2000, which ended up being his final performance.
Mouse On Mars - Vax: WOW is an awkwa\rd assemblage of beats that works itself out like a psychedelic mixtape.
Philip Glass - Knee 1 (Nosaj Thing Remix)
Philip Glass - Music in Twelve Parts, Part 1 (My Great Ghost Remix): I really enjoy the Rework: Philip Glass Remixed album, and you just might too. Do you enjoy Philip Glass? Do you enjoy contemporary electronic beat producers? If you answered yes to both of those questions, it's really hard to ignore this release. If you said no to either, then shuffle along. The album isn't a perfect whole, but it's up there with the Tortoise remixes album from a decade ago in terms of an important body of work being interpreted in such a way that reveals a pulse-taking of today's producers. Recommended.
Ryan Teague - Cell Cycle
Ryan Teague - Games for Two
Ryan Teague - Tetramery: If you enjoy the classic pulsings of Glass you might also really love this Teague album Field Drawings. The 21st century rhythmic practices are all over these compositions. Recommended.
Sleepyhead - My Lyf: The skittery footwerk scene only brings me in when I feel like it's tied my brain in to knots like an oldschool U-Ziq track, and this one pulls on that for sure.
St. Lucia - All Eyes On You (Pacific Air Remix): This comes together so simply, but it's all the pop ecstasy you demand.
Tul-Pa - Dazed: I wanna be sedated and this is what I will count away with.
Wild Ones - Paia (My Body Remix): A track after my own heart.
Zelda - Link's Awakening Sword Search (Janski Beeeats Remix): More gamer-core betas and HEY, did you know they made Zelda games on systems other than the NES? Huh, the more you know…

MP3 blog 2014/02/04
blog 2014/02/04 - it's a little party and you can't go just yet
This part of us will never die: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140204.zip
Alina Baraz & Galimatias - Make You Feel (remix): OK so I lost who is the producer on this, but urgency dictates that you need to be seduced Right. This. Second.
Dillon Francis - Without You ft T.E.E.D (ETC!ETC! X Jesse Slayter Remix): Sick bubble pop explodes all over the place.
Drake vs Baauer & RL Grime - Infinite Starts (Hood Internet mashup): This pairing will just kill it on the dance floor.
Michalis Moschoutis - Act I: A subtlely shifting inner whirwind of acoustic bliss.
Nitty Scott - Language Arts: Love the 94 sounds boom bap flute beat, so good.
Noah D - Roll Out (The Jeep Remix): That squelch box bass just kills it for me. What a classic breakbeat track needs. Now cut this up.
Robag Wruhme - Donnerkuppel
Robag Wruhme - Polch Dutto: Sometimes minimal tech is full of so much elation stuck between the clicks and whirrs, and like Tiefschwartz, Wruhme has that formula nailed to magical perfection.
Robin Thicke - Give It 2 U (Trippy Turtle Remix): I have never heard any Thicke before, so not sure if it normally has those delicious water drop click sounds, but lay on the claps and squeaky vocals and shake it!
Seams - Platz: Groove on the clicky IDM rush of it all, old school.
Slow Machete - Until Your Father Sleeps: The vocals here just reverberate through me to the base of what I know my self to be. I can't overstake how epic this makes me feel.
Son Lux - Lost It To Trying: The perfect balance of quirk and slick produced bass, wrapped in synths and horns? Oh yes sign me up. More.
Talmud Beach - How Long: The guy from Black Mountain will never be able to enter a witness protection program. Wherever he goes, his distinctive voice will summon swarms of admiring fans to his feet.
Tei Shi - M&Ms: Glorious sensual tension that you could almost touch.
The Breeders - Saints (live in Stockholm): The Breeders toured on Last Splash's re-release! Don't critique, just dance!
The Range - Loftmane: More of the dark and critical breakbeat jazz.
The Weather Station - Traveller: WS stuff seems so fragile that it could shatter any second under the weight of it's own sadness, yet always pulls through to the end. It leaves me exhausted and joyous.
Weaves - Hulahoop: We grew up on Ween too and fuck you let's smash shit and pass out.

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

blog 2014/01/21 - we don't believe it to be but we are wishing for it so hard to spite the rest
good day and hello again: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20140121.zip
Call To Mind - A Family Sketch : Whistful epicness from The Winter Is White.
Crashworship - Pyru (Edenflux Remix): This is from 2009 soulseekers comp and holy shit is this awesome.
Del Bel - Dusk Light: From the 2011 album Oneiric.
Disclosure - When A Fire Starts To Burn (DÜME Remix): Awww shit, this is probably my favourite track of the year so far. Totally amazing.
Débruit & Alsarah - Alkoan Baladi : Sick poppy and oh so sweet.
Eminem - Love Game ft Kendrick Lamar: Not an Eminem fan, but this is here for the Kendrick and the beat. Totally purile, but oh the flow…
Erika Spring - HAG (Aeroplane Remix): Totally smokey and subdued electro pop.
Four Tet - Parallel Jalebi: Pulsing smooth from the new album Beautiful Rewind.
French Horn Rebellion & Savoir Adore - The Fire: 2 of my favourite bring the massive joyous cries of forever to the masses.
Grimes - Skin (Four Tet's Human Once Again Remix): The perfect rework of Grimes that I think is possible.
Grizzly Bear - Will Calls (Diplo Remix): Thus proving that pretty much anyting can be a trappy slammer.
Joaan - Out Of Slang: I still love dubsteppy stuff that sticks to the purity of the progamming, the dark sounds, the twirky little progressions, all that 2005 ish.
Jon Kennedy - Electronic Sound Pictures: All these years later and JK still pulls out the epic soundtrack feels.
Just Out Zonin - Tori Amos: oh hey did I mention that ANYTHING CAN BE A TRAP REMIX?
Karol Conka - Boa Noite: so frickin badass, I love everything about this.
ParoXysM - Decisions: Another dynamite track off that 2009 soulseekers comp. Skitter all over the place.

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

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

MP3 blog 2013/12/3
blog 2013/12/03 - the end is NIGH
The end is upon us. The time ticks down. This will be the last normal MP3 blog post of the year.
Next week will be my favourite albums of 2013.
The week after? The annual holiday post.
And then we are on vacation until January.
45 blog posts.
850 mp3s.
Hope you've enjoyed this year, it's been crazy: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20131203.zip
Angel Haze - Same Love: Oh thank god Angel Haze got in and did this. Fuck yes.
Blind Pilot - 3 Rounds and a Sound (iTunes session): Wooden stool core.
Crookers & Digi - Stiaah!: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
Flint - Mouser: I don't post a lot of harder stuff, but my god this track from Brof Ken Piano is fabulous. To take it back some decades, it has a Jesus Lizard intensity with a Mike Patton goofiness.
Gentlemen Hall - Sail Into The Sun (RAC Mix): RAC is back and keeps the dance groove going on and on and on.
J-Live - Set It Straight (Sammy Senior Remix): Getting on an epic chill tip here.
Jacksons 5 - ABC (Minimatic's Under The Volcano Mix): Oh yes, Jacksons need to chill the heck out and the go for the sun.
Majical Cloudz - Impersonator
Majical Cloudz - Turns Turns Turns: Impersonator feels like a Scott Walker album done as straight-forward cabaret pop. It has unfolding depths that reward multiple listens.
Maxo Kream - Lewinsky: Dark ish from Quicc Strikes.
Mice Parade - This River Has A Tide: I love vocal pairs with such a strong difference in their ranges like this. A bit like Dirty Projectors lite, but oh so good still. From Candela.
Nickel - ZYGZM (Jean Nippon Remix): Gotta get back on that deep tech tip.
Rihanna - Russian Roulette (Blackbird Blackbird Refix): Taking all the princesses and lining up the morphine.
Scrns - Ttyn: School Of Seven Bells is attacking you with their cell phones.
Sky Ferreira - I Blame Myself: #hnnng pop perfection from Night Time, My Time
Sleigh Bells - Demons (Diplo Remix): I guess the holiday music is starting early this year?
The Bixby Knolls - Runnin And Runnin: Let's get drunk and dance to this in a bar and go in circles circles cvicles crickets
The Pink Noise - Bad Trip: Nonewwave all over this Greedy Heart.
Typhoon - Rules of the Game: He's going to just wrench it right out of you, Temple Of Doom Style.
Yell for Help - Love Will Keep Us Together: In case you needed another dose of the Sleigh Bells sound!

MP3 blog 2013/11/26
blog 2013/11/26 - the last chance to prove them wrong
going to keep it all running: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20131126.zip
Arcade Fire - Here Comes The Night Time
Arcade Fire - Normal Person: It's kind of done. This will be best album of the year and at least be in everyone's top 5. Sneer as much as you want, you can't deny it. Reflektor is golden. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
A-Trak - Disco Nap ft Oliver (Q-Bert's RocketCockPet Mix): Quack it all up on the dance floor, Q-Bert's humour still shines after what, 2 decades? Love it.
Bambu - Upset The Setup ft Killer Mike: Great little track from ...one rifle per family.
Bon Iver - Towers (I, Aeronaut Remix): aaaaand always with the sleepytown Bon Iver remixes!
Brother Ali - Letter To My Countrymen: I wasn't feeling a lot of Mourning in America and Dreaming in Color, but this somber track really flows well and is quite poignant.
CFCF - Gamelan 1: Like Four Tet, but much more snuggly.
Clams Casino - Crystals: Getting witchy on shit shit.
Ellie Goulding - Hanging On (Illo Bootleg): Illo gets the goods.
Flume - Insane (Fishing Remix): Great electro bass beat with a perfect flow on top.
Giraffage - Close 2 Me
Giraffage - Feels: What's with the trend of taking some dope chill bass and slowing the BPM at the end? Hmmmm?
Gregory Alan Isakov - Amsterdam: And now we break for some soaring adult-contemporary folk. Get your scarves out.
Jasper TX - A New Language: An Index Of Failure gives up the goods mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmrrrrrrrrroooooooooooo
Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - We No Who U R
Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Wide Lovely Eyes: Not time was spent with Push The Sky Away, but these two takeaways stayed along for my ride.
No Joy - Hare Tarot Lies
No Joy - Lunar Phobia: This is dream pop that gives me shivers and lusts.
Wet - Dreams: So many feelings, OK?

MP3 blog 2013/11/12
blog 2013/11/12 - again again again
Nothing is as easy as right now: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20131112.zip
AU - OJ: OK just one more. Another track from the highly recommended album Both Lights.
Björk - Sacrifice (Death Grips Remix): The funny thing is that I already took my Death Grips dolls and made them make out with my Bjork doll, which now seems kind of prophetic.
Chance The Rapper - Everybody's Something ft Saba & BJ The Chicago Kid: Total chillout good vibes track from the almost-perfect Acid Rap LP.
Death Coast - Crying: Mulholland Drive, slowed down x 10000%!!!!
Four Tet - Unicorn: Stunning little fiary twinkles from Beautiful Rewind.
Grimes - Vanessa (Nico Pusch Bootleg Remix): Grimes was always meant to be some dancefloor funk chiller.
Grouper - Vital: While I can't say The Man Who Died In His Boat is essential listening, has any Grouper album ever been that mush-have? Still, a few really lovely tracks in the bunch, and when you spend time with the ones you love, you fall for them comletely.
Guilty Simpson - Ode to the Ghetto (Machinedrum Remix): Any time machinedrum gets back to a straight up hiphop beat I am so all over it.
Justin Timberlake - Drink You Away: The epic grandeur that is The 20/20 Experience has 2 peaks for me, and this is the other one. JT does exactly what needs to be done.
Kendrick Lamar - M.A.A.D. City (Eprom Remix)
Kendrick Lamar ft Dr. Dre - The Recipe (Trapback Remix): Fuuuuuuk yes, Kendrick rocks so perfectly as chiptune trapcore. The kids are all right.
Le1f - Pocahontas ft Kitty Pryde: Oh hai, speaking of making my dolls make out with each other as a form of prophetic divination.
Lido Pimienta - Humano (Self Evident Remix): The beat alone is seductive but oh when those vocals slip in there you know you've found something good.
Machinedrum - Gunshotta: This just spills out everywhere and yes that's ok.
Rae Spoon - I Will Always Love You (Dolly Parton cover): Yes, I totally imagine them singing this to Burt Reynolds. As is only appropriate.
Shlohmo - Don't Say No ft How To Dress Well: DID I MENTION I HAVE MAGICAL DOLLS OF MY FAVOURITE ARTISTS AND I MAKE THEM KISS?
Son Lux - Easy: A perfect little nugget from Lanterns.
The Second Hand Marching Band - We Will Convince You: First single from the upcoming album A Hurricane, A Thunderstorm and it's a total party.

blog 2013/11/05 - better still we turn it off to not burn out the night
HOLY SHIT YOU GUYS, ROB FORD… http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20131105.zip
B.T. Express - Everything Good To You (Jim Sharp Northern Touch Edit): Always love these funk edits.
Calexico - Algiers: My favourite track from last year's album Algiers, this is total spaghetti-Western soundtrack music.
Captain Murphy - Gloe: Storming bass upfront take notice.
Danny Byrd - New Day ft Xavier: Byrd gets some funky bounce all up in here.
Decades - Tonight Again: Oh god I love the emotional devastation in his tearing voice.
Dfrnt - El Spirito: The vocals sound like Kate Bush, and I'm not sure they are, but it still gets me wet.
Kenny Graham And His Satellites - Sunday: We've had our spaghetti western, now let's get some film noir hardboiled detective scenes all up in this place.
Kool A.D. - Future Primitive Culinary School ft Chippy Nonstop
Kool A.D. - Jenny Holzer ft Chippy Nonstop
Kool A.D. - Question Jam Answer ft Busdriver & Beans: Selections from the free "63" mixtape, I love the Chippy Nonstop bits in here, and word up to Holzer!
Maximilian Hecker - Help Me: Oh I love the organ sustain sitting contently in the back just there.
Miley Cyrus vs Sinead O'Connor - Nothing Compares To Wrecking Ball: While I am not sure I will ever listen to this again, I am so glad that it's out there. Stop the slut-shaming and make nice!
O for Odetta - Traffic: Smooth downtempo from the ol' Rubber Beats 2 copilation. Love the flutter above the strings.
Odesza - If There's Time

Odesza - Without You: Stunning beats from the new releases My Friends Never Die. Highly recommended.

MP3 blog 2013/10/30
blog 2013/10/30 - the world spits in your eyes and you think it's paying attention to you
Go to bed, internet. You're drunk: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20131030.zip
AU - Old Friend
AU - Solid Gold: I first heard AU with a crazy remix somene did of Solid Gold. And I've now confirmed that I realy love Both Lights, the proper full length, as well. It is bombastic and frenetic and quiet and meditative and all of that, all crammed in to one space. It comes at you like a giant concept album that willl appeal to anyone who puts on a Owen Pallet or Sufjan Stevens album and listens from beginning to end.
Bill Callahan - Small Plane (NPR garden version): Yes, this is Bill, in a garden, playing. Communing. Ascending.
Eskmo - 1996
Eskmo - I Just Want: The Language EP is just freaking BOSS.
Jackal - Bubblegum ft CRNKN: bubble gum BOOOOOOM
Kyary Pamyu Pamyu - PonPonPon: The video made it famous, but the song itself stands alone. MASH THE PLACE UP!
Los Campesinos! - By Your Hand: This band is one of those where I always get the sense that people are fed up with them, and I'm not sure where that image comes from, but they just keep saying UFCK YOU and releasing brilliance on brilliance. I've always thought that these guys and Vampire Weekend should be forced to swap fame levels. For justice.
Menomena - Capsule
Menomena - One Horse: Is there irony that the album Moms reminds me of the band Girls?
Shearwater - Fucked Up Life: Another intruiging track from the new album Fellow Travelers.
Sun Glitters - Only You: There is a lulling simplicity to this so let it wash all over.
Team Doyobi - Art of Memorex
Team Doyobi - Definition: A bit more accessible than there works of a decade past, this is like the best parts of Daft Punk slowed down and made relevant again.
There Will Be Fireworks - Roots: Shimmering folk from The Dark, Dark Bright.
Times Neue Roman - So Many Females: Just ride that Cali Bass!
Toro Y Moi - Fax Shadow (Shlohmo Remix): I'm not a huge Moi fan, but oh HAI GUESS WHAT, I kinda sorta LOVE Shlohmo.
Victor Niglio - Jiggy ft Mr. Man: Holy hell jig man, all over the place, clean up that mess.
Yassou Benedict - Last Cicada: Send you to bed with this beautiful track from In Fits In Dreams.

MP3 blog 2013/10/22
blog 20134/10/22 - there is a secret entrance
if only you can believe in it: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20131022.zip
Aleksi Perälä - Magnetic Shield: From the album, Mental Union, I love this minimalist gong excursion.
Badawi - Evocation (Cex remix): A slightly older one, but my god I love when Badawi gets all Muslimgauze on the place.
Big Wave Riders - Waiting In The Wings: You and your friends like sing-a-long songs.
Bing And Ruth - And Then It Rained: Pulsing and breathey and it's that epic scene late at night from Backward Music Vol.1
Bjork - Mutual Core (These New Puritans Remix ft Solomon Islands Song): There always a lot to sift through when a new round of Bjork remixes swarms out, but the chanting + subbass win over on this one.
Claire - Games (Abby Rmx): It's a fabulous pop song, but oh it's chill bass would fit it in so many places. Dang lovely, AND 2 vocalists!
Crystal Castles - Untrust Us (Pause Music Mix): Strip out the intensity and rattle and give us the pounding communique we all deserve.
DJ Cutman - Marblemadnass
DJ Cutman - Red Soil
DJ Cutman - The Moon: BOOM, 3 of the greatest game soundtracks flipped and smoothed. Marble Madness, Super Metroid, Duck Tales, represent!
Fire Through The Window - Hey!: Waaaaay to short but so much fun while it lasts.
Glenn Jones - Going Back to East Montgomery
Glenn Jones - The Vernal Pool: My Garden State is an acoustic guitar opus that, if you find the right frame to engage with it, opens up expanses for you.
Jon Kennedy - A Sure Thing
Jon Kennedy - Drive By
Jon Kennedy - Organised Crime ft Kate Rogers: Filled with classic singles and great remixes, Strengthen The Roses is essential for downtempo fans of all stripes. Some great slices on there for breakbeat lovers.
Kelpe - Answered (Jon Phonics Remix): bass
Ladysmith Black Mambazo - Homeless ft Sarah Mclachlan
Ladysmith Black Mambazo - Shosholoza ft Lucky Dube, Bhekumuzi Luthuli, Hugh Masekela: ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo god, how can you say no to a 2012 redux of Homeless? Oh hells yes. A few shining standouts on the Ladysmith Black Mambazo & Friends album for sure.

MP3 blog 2013/10/15
blog 2013/10/15 - some times there is a cloud of terrible just crashing around
invested in the moment for too long: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20131015.zip
Battles - Sundome (EYE Remix): Since my formative years in the early 90s, I've been a total EYE fangirl. Even with a release with as mystifing purpose as a Battles remix album, I can always wash away the detreius and just chill with EYE and obliterate all structure.
Buck 65 - Dolores: Rich takes vocoder lessons from Bon Iver and produces this lovely little fusion jam for 20 Odd Years: Volume 4 - Ostranenie.
Chance The Rapper - Good Ass Intro ft BJ The Chicago Kid, Lili K., Kiara Lanier, Peter Cottontail: Acid Rap is refreshing in so many ways. It's got GREAT stuff going on, but then it also has a few dalliances in to hiphop assholery, dropping slurs against gays and women just as casual banter and yeah, some great stuff, but fuck you for that, Chance.
Charli XCX - You're the One (Blood Orange Remix): Dear lord, this is total pop ecstasy right here. Everything going on is just essential.
Chiddy Bang - Mind Your Manners ft Icona Pop: I guess it's Chiddy's thing, loop up a ridiculous pop hook and just go from there. Whatevs, it totally works here.
Chihei Hatakeyama - Algenib: Another drone slab from CH, this time from Norma.
DJ Hype - Dub Plate Fever: So there I was sifting through the entire Suburban Bass back catalogue and this one pops out to me and my god it's been YEARS, but oh that "jungle jungle" sample was all it took and boom you're back and it's almost 2 decades ago.
Gaslight Anthem - Hold You Up: Gaslight Anthem - Hold You Up
Gaslight Anthem - Skinny Love (Bon Iver cover): From a 10" released on Record Store Day, Gaslight Anthem show off their meditative calming side to great effect.
Helios - Every Hair on Your Head (Ben Boysen Remix)
Helios - Halving The Compass (Rhian Sheehan Remix): Here is a remix album I can dig in to, extended works for electronics and piano+guitar are always up my alley.
Joey Bada$$ - My Yout
Joey Bada$$ - World Domination: Like Chance, Joey is part of a crop of young rappers who have tonnes of astonishing talent and are really excitiing, if you can work around the daliances in to douchery.
LOL Boys - Changes (Anenon One Take Cover)
LOL Boys - Changes ft Heart Streets: I rarely put up 2 mixes of the same song, but Anenon stripped-to-the-horns version is so great not to pass on, and the original so lovely that what am I to do?
Shearwater - I Luv the Valley Oh: The new album is Fellow Travelers and while I am not in love with all Shearwater albums, there are always parts of it that are incredible and have to dive in regardless.
The Pink Mountaintops - Rock n Roll Fantasy: This goes back to 2004, and YES, it is the guy from Black Mountain and that is why it's so awesome.
Tic Tic Boom! - These Motions: There is a Matt & Kim level of cheerleader exuberance going on here.
Top Less Gay Love Tekno Party - Danger Love: With a name like that you're probably expecting some more radical speedbass type excursions, but nope, you get straight-up fabulous soaring pop.
THIS WEEK'S TRACKS
Battles - Sundome (EYE Remix)
Buck 65 - Dolores

MP3 blog 2013/10/08
blog 2013/10/08 - there's a bell ringing, signifying the end
shake that laffy taffy: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20131008.zip
Basia Bulat - It Can't Be You
Basia Bulat - Never Let Me Go: I have been a fan of BB since her first album, and I recently saw her a 4th time. She brought Evening Hymans and Rolf of The Acorn up on stage for backup vocals and it all created a transcendent few minutes. It was a "you had to be there" kind of thing. Her album Tall Tall Shadow is a fabulous folk whirlwind which strives to capture her live magic and is oh so close at achieving it. Highly recommended.
Hop Along - Laments
Hop Along - Get Disowned
Hop Along - Some Grace: Another track from Get Disowned appears wayback in this blog, but I listened to that post again and realized I had to get the full length album, and within discovered so much other great slow-burn emoangst fury. Recommended!
Janelle Monáe - Givin Em What They Love ft Prince
Janelle Monáe - I Want You Back (Jackson 5 cover): Oh hey we need a guest for this track. How about… PRINCE??? Oh my god amazing. The Electric Lady is out now to massive praise. I like Janelle a whole lot, but I want to love her even more. I love many of her songs and many things about her, but I just can't get in to any of her albums as a whole. It was the same thing with Frank Ocean: lots of mindblowing cuts, totally in love with the individual, but I keep skipping over tracks that I just can't groove on.
Joy O - Knock Knock
Joy O - Sicko Cell: Using a clever SUPER SECRET alias, Joy Orbison serves up some of my favourite bouncy bangers.
Julia Holter - Goddess Eyes II: Hot tip producers: Check these ecstasy-inducing vocals and remix this shit for 15 minutes.
Le1f - Airbending
Le1f - Pocahontas ft Kitty Pryde: Fly Zone is a bit all over the place, but it's got a tonne of fun in it.
Punch - The Chase: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand before you know it, it's GONE!
Rhye - One Of Those Summer Days (Felix! Edit): a moist summer morning jam stretched out as things start to evaporate
Sandro Perri - Romeo Heart (Slight Return): Digging in to Perri's catalogue, I scooped out the great little gem of Plays Polmo Polpo, where he revisits his old electronica project tracks with new eyes.
Shigeto - Detroit Part 1: Dope downtempo from the new album No Better Time Than Now.
Trim - Album Skits
Trim - Thoughts: I only recently sifted through Monkey Features but oh fuck there is some SLAMMING grime ish here. Love love love the playful beats.
Tsunami Bomb - Planet, Schmanet, Janet: The cutest of all renditions from the Rocky Horror Punk Rock Show compilation. I'm not the hugest RHPS fan but oh the re-interpretations!

MP3 blog 2013/10/01
blog 2013/10/01 - there is pain in it all
This week, and forever at the top: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20131001.zip
Arcade Fire - Reflektor ft David Bowie: Arcade Fire's back and the Talking Heads are once again king. Kick out the cocaine disco grooves. Oh and hey, David Bowie? Woah.
Bat For Lashes - We Found Love (Rihanna cover): Finally, the breathy drama of it can be fully realized!
Bill Callahan - Javelin Unlanding (Expanding Dub)
Bill Callahan - Winter Road (Highs in the Mid-40's Dub): This is how Callahan serenades you on your way to the afterworld.
Cassie - Me & You (CRNKN Remix): So many remixes of this classic, and this is my favourite one yet.
Elvis Costello and The Roots - Sugar Won't Work: 2 great tastes you never thought would go together! Wise Up Ghost And Other Songs out now.
Guided By Voices - Class Clown Spots A UFO: Ecstatic pop where the opening lines take me right to TMBG's John Henry album, and that sets the bar right high.
Lucas Hicks - Greenest Summer: This is from the album Slower, and has that Wavvers fuzz with the Girls emotional package, I guess like a modern Eric's Trip sound?
Maxxi Soundsystem - Regrets We Have No Use For ft Name One (Matthew Herbert Remix): I'll immediately dive in to anything Herbert has touched, but oh my the song title was truly what brought me here and hey there are blankets and I have decided to stay.
Ms Mr - Hurricane (CHVRCHES Remix)
Ms Mr - Think Of You (RAC Remix): Insanely good pop. Textbook great. All of your favourite sonds with a voice reminiscent of The Gossip. It's just great. Highly recommended.
Murcof & Philippe Petit - Pegasus: Pieces like this give me such shivers. I love gurgled electronics sitting on par with melodic chamber instrumentals, swirling together in a psychedelic incantation. I haven't heard the new album "First Chapter" yet but if this is the masthead for it, I'm in.
Nine Inch Nails - Copy of a: So apparently there was this guy named Trent Reznor and he was like, THERE, at the start of the internet and made some famous usenet postings or something? Anyways, he wallowed in obscurity for a few decades, did some awesome background work for Aaron Sorkin dialogue, and has an album out now. We wish him well and hope he can make a name for himself, he sounds very promising!
Scott Walker - 'See You Don't Bump His Head'
Scott Walker - Tar: Bish Bosch is a singular musical world untouched by any reality you have known before. It is all the mythology and symbolic density of The Swans rennaissance, if instead of an industrial blues background he had a baroque opera opera, then fell in a vat of mutagen. This will not be for everyone, for the adventurous it is an untouchable work of capital A Art.
Sleigh Bells - Bitter Rivals: New single tones down the crunch, ups the pop, and I love it all the same.
The Julie Ruin - Cookie Road: Run Fast, out now. Welcome back.
