More music I've been enjoying lately. Classic hip-hop, post-punk revivalism, soulful house and a song about Alexa all feature...
Finn - RTS
Closing out his recent mix for Resident Advisor (RA.746 - Finn) with his own soulful filter house jam is a nice touch, just like the mix into it from Trotters Independent Traders' Gotta Believe. Tidy.
The Fall - Hit The North
How many tracks from The Fall will I include in these X in 1 lists before I admit I'm a fan?
A Tribe Called Quest - Bonita Applebum
Just some smooth AF classic hip hop.
Holy Tongue - Emet
Liquid Liquid-like dubby punk-funk from Al Wootton (who used to be Deadboy) and Valentina Magaletti. The whole Holy Tongue EP is on this tip, bang into it.Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Turn Into
I'd like to tell you all about it [guitar solo that sounds like a theremin].
Dug out Show Your Bones the other day and goddammit I love the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. I looked at a couple of album reviews from when it came out, and there were some sniffy critiques, mainly around it not being as good as Fever To Tell... but what is? Show Your Bones is still a solid LP.
The Futureheads - Man Ray
Another hit of post-punk revivalism. Man, I just want this to be over and be in a sweaty, dark room jumping around to The Futureheads.
Boards of Canada - Duffy
One of the snippets from This is Hexagon Sun, Duffy is one of the very few tracks that has been confirmed as BOC from the phase where they only handed out their music to friends and family. It's off Acid Memories from 1989.
