Neon Indian-"Slumlord"(2015)

I had a chance to preview the new Neon Indian lp that comes out in October and it sounds great. I can see why it took Alan so long to make this. Here's his latest single:

Ex Machina disco scene

"The greatest scene from Ex Machina" is an accurate YouTube title for this clip. Truly an exemplary moment in modern cinema.


In case the above isn't enough, here is the full song:

Sky Ferreira-"Everything Is Embarassing"(2012)

Been on that Dev Hynes shit lately.

The Replacements-"Bastards of Young"(1985)

More pub rock. The simplicity of this video slays and makes me just want to listen to records and chain smoke. From their first major label lp, Tim produced by Tommy Ramone.

Pulp-"Common People"(1995)

Pub anthem rock.

The Horn-"Villager"(1996)

I recently discovered this track after listening to this BIS mix by the Drifter. This is the standout track imho.

HEALTH-"L.A. Looks"(2015)

I'm listening to the new Health album, Death Magic, right now. So far this is the nut-buster.

My Bloody Valentine-"When You Sleep"(1991)

I'm not big on 90s nostalgia rock, but this album is still so great. MBV played Dallas in 2009 but i regrettably missed it (because i was going to Europe the next day or some shit). In hindsight, i should've attended. All i heard about for months from every person that went was A. this was the loudest show ever/ comparable to a jet engine hitting your chest B. They sounded perfect.

Oh well, maybe i'll see them one day.

John Cale & Brian Eno-"Wrong Way Up"(1990)

This is a sick album from 1990. It's nice to hear what these two producers and performers in their own right made whileworking collaboratively.

Alan Braxe & Friends-"The Upper Cuts"(2005)

This whole album is great to throw on when you don't want to think about music or what you want to play next.

Yaz(oo)-"Only You"(1982)

Written by Vince Clark. Upstairs at Eric's is a flawless, timeless classic album in my humble opinion.

Grimes-"Realiti"(2015)

I was hyped to see some Jakarta, Indonesia and Singapore landmarks in this video. This song slays. I just can't stop listening to this track.

Jamie XX-"Sleep Sound"(2014)

Here's a touching video from one of the best albums to come out this year.
