9 in 1 (8)


A decidedly backwards-looking list this time around. Like, there are two tracks from this millennium. Quit living in the past, Marge.
  

Michael McDonald - I Keep Forgettin'

Always a struggle not to bust into Regulate.

Steely Dan - Dirty Work

Ah, the Dan. How'd it take me so long? 

The Selecter - Missing Words

Two-tone rarely pulls on the heartstrings, but the chorus on Missing Words is properly affecting. 

Lee Scratch Perry & The Upsetters - Jungle Lion

God, I used to hammer this in Falmouth, back in the Radiowave days. RIP.

Womack & Womack - Conscious Of My Conscience

Cringe title but what a groove. From the same album as Teardrops, I need to get on that vibe.

Change - Mutual Attraction

Looking at the YouTube comments, this has something to do with Luther Vandross? Whatever, it's all about that bassline.

Todd Terje - Snooze 4 Love

Slipping into this one like a warm bath, a warm bath in space, yes mate, build it.

LFO - We Are Back

How great is this video? Apparently, it's the official one. As if I couldn't love this track anymore it features clips from Twin Peaks. Still bangs.

White Lies - Death (Crystal Castles Remix)

Ariel Pink last week, Crystal Castles this week, on the cancellation express. Fuck it, this too still bangs.
