Scouring iTunes for some oldies.

Hey Gang! It is hard to find music to post here while I am not near my 2 external hard drives (pushes coke bottle glasses back up onto nose) so I usually end up finding a couple tunes to download from blogs and then reposting them here. I swear, I have a bunch of music I want to post, but it is not accessible right now. So, I think today I will look for some older songs that are actually on my computer and maybe some new stuff.

When I was home in Maine a couple weeks ago I was a music downloading frenzy because I knew when I cam back to Virginia I would not have the opportunity for a while. One of the albums I got was the new Shout Out Louds LP Our Ill Wills which for some reason is out in Europe, yet is being released in the US on September. One of my favorite songs from their previous effort Howl Howl Gaff Gaff was Go Sadness. A nice little diddy from Our Ill Wills is the popular Tonight I Have To Leave It. I will post both of them for some comparison listening.

The other song is again from Justices LP †. The song? DVNO. The song is driving me crazy because I feel like the vocals are from a popular 80's song that I have never heard. The only difference is that Justice goes to town on it to shape it into an instant party classic (according to me).

That is all for now, check back tomorrow for something on The Clientele, and if I can find it, a ridiculous electropop song by Yelle.

Kissy Sell Out, Feist

While reading a post in Good Weather For Airstrikes about the Daft Punk performance at the O2 Wireless Festival in London the other day I came across some remixes by a British DJ Kissy Sell Out. I feel that his best remix by far is of a song by All Saints called Chick Fit. I would try and break down the parts of the song but my shift is almost up and I want to get this posted. The other song I am putting up is off Feist's new album The Reminder. The song? Sea Lion Woman. Minimalist clap beat over beautiful vocals are enough to make this song a gem. (Yes, a gem.) Ok, here they are.

iTunes Free Download of the week=Justice!

As someone pointed out to me, the free download of the week on iTunes is D.A.N.C.E. by Justice. So, all of you (yes, all 2 of you) should check that out, if I haven't already sent it to you. Clearly, Justice is the hot band of the summer. And even though my housemates think that I am just going through a faze by listening to this music, I shall prove them wrong in showing that Justice is actually a hot band that other people besides myself and Plus Move listen to here in the U.S.. Also, if you have a chance (which I know 1 of you does) download some Devendra Banhart. I am "digging" his sounds right now and I am sure you will too. That is all for tonight because it is almost 4a.m. and I need to get up before noon tomorrow to run some errands.
