Leon Haywood-"I Want to Do Something Freaky To You"(1975)

Low-"Open Arms"(2004)

Low released this cover on 2004's A Lifetime of Temporary Relief: 10 Years of B-Sides and Rarities-


Natalie told me she had never heard this Journey song when it came on the radio last night. I told her i couldn't believe it. I'm contacting The House Committee on Un-American Activities asap.

Low was responsible for another great cover here.

Driicky Graham-"Snapbacks & Tattoos"(2012)

This is a few months old (early summer jam, namsayin'), but i heard it blasting in Bushwick the other day. Owns.

PIL-"Deeper Water"(2012)

New material from John Lydon's classic group PIL-

We have tickets to see the new-ish line-up (sans Keith Levene & Jah Wobble) in a few weeks. I hope it's good.

OutKast-"Crumblin' Erb"(1994)

O.G. OutKast, namsayin'? (Before Andre became WHACK).

"End of Watch" Trailer (2012)

I wanna see this. (I've only seent two movies in the theater this year). 


This movie was written by the same dude, David Ayer, that wrote Training Day and Harsh Times. Both of those films end tragically, and i am going to go ahead and guess that this movie won't stray from his "downer" endings.

Loleatta Holloway-"Love Sensation"(1980)

Famously sampled by Marky Mark & The Funky Bunch.

Twin Shadow-"Forget"(2010)

I procrastinated on purchasing tickets to the upcoming Twin Shadow show at Webster Hal in New Yorkl. It sold out quickly (maybe 1 day?). I'm so upset that I am denouncing my love for Twin Shadow. I played his first record at every one of my DJ gigs, listened to his debut album countless times, and even considered naming my first-born George (j/k about the last one). I am going to just forget about Twin Shadow for now. My best friend texted me this morning that last night's TS show in Dallas was the show of the year (probably only because he was in NY when Glass Candy/Chromatics played Granada). But seriously, I don't doubt that Twin Shadow put on a great show. The closest I'll come to seeing him "live" is this 4AD session.

Kolsch ft Troels Abrahamsen-"All That Matters" (2012)

Heard this on a Mike Simonetti mix.

Aphex Twin-"Windowlicker"(1999)

Taking it back to '99 with this siiick Chris Cunningham video my friend Ed reminded me about recently. You already know I'm feeling that flip-of-the-script around 8:18.

Liars-"Brats"(2012)

Off their new album- I hope this song is an abbreviation for "bratwursts".

Luke-"I Wanna Rock"(1991)

Ahhh. 2 Live Crew. "Doo doo brown". What an infuence these sordid rappers from Miami had on me as a youth.

This isn't even really a rap song. Just a "get hype" track to a 90s break-beat, namsayin'?

French Montana went ahead and sampled this track. Pretty G. Almost unrecognizable.

"What you twerkin' wiiiith?..."
