The Weeklies For September - Still Too Much To Do, To Do It Right
Ahhh - September when the air is cool and New York is less violently antithetical to human existence. To ring in the Calculus course and the Brooklyn Book Festival I bring you another mildly amusing number of songs that I heard in recent car commercials and funeral processions. Am I doing any of this right yet?
No. I still make to many mistakes.1. The Fugs - Skin FlowersA long and semi-distinguished career has brought the Fugs a small amount of fame. Their Final CD compilation even got voted on highly by Rolling Stone for Greatest Album. The just had a reunion tour this year and are working towards releasing a DVD of it via CdBaby.

2. Portishead - Stranger (Live)
The infamous live a Roseland show I believe.

3. The Hives - I Hate to Say I Told You So
Not to often to I post straight up pop but the energy on this track (a sort of over produced punk) fit my mood too well to let it go.

4. The Fiery Furnaces - Navy Nurse
New album 'Widow City' finds the old gang in bed with delerious amounts of heavy sounds. An altogether larger departure from previous tones than the infamous (and heart warming) signing with Grandma album. Highly recommended for the variety of ways it compels you to invest in a bass amp.
site | buy (available October 2007)
5. They Might Be Giants - First Kiss
Well the FF track preceding this was just so damn heavy I had to lighten the groove some how so this is the obligatory palate reset track. TMBG also came out with a new album and I've every intent to make a smart purchase of it the moment I get the hookers under my thumb again.

6. Acid Casuals - Wa Da Da
Nothing says a good time for all like a music collective. And these guys are that and a massive clooective it is - and welsh too boot!
site | buy
7. Devendra Banhart - Long Haired Child
The real stand out track of freak folk on this podcast. I was delighted to hear it the first time I stumbled upon it and was doubly excited to find he's putting out a new album here on the 26th.

8. Echu Minga - Pueblo Nuevo
A sister on nonesuch records alongside superstars Buena Vista Social Club Echu takes a track and reworks it to an understated dj haze. Well I liked it a lot.
site | buy
9. The Replacements - I Will Dare
The preeminent punk band on a straight forward track here.
site | buy
10. Brazilian Girls - All We Have
A more mellow offering than what their known for, this track is for the thoughtful moment before we dive into the aural catastroph of the next track.

11. Polysics - New Wave Jacket
Someone brought 'technicolor pogo punk' and it was loud but still good.
site | buy
12. TullyCraft - Fall 4 U
Not one of my favorite TullyCraft songs (check the grammophone for 'Our Times in Kansas'). But they've got another album coming out in October so I'll show the so-saids the whatfor by then. Be sure to check back in sometime.
site | buy
13. Mahala Rai Banda - Romano Dance
What a damn miracle find! I do hope that there is some enjoyment in the various headphones when this gets the listen to. Dig the Bucharest Ghetto Gypsies.
site | buy
14. Sugababes - Red Dress (Caged Baby Remix)
A bit of the electro remix can revitalize even the mainest of pop songs on this it does double the work turning the piece into a solid work dance floor propaganda.
site | buy
15. Man Man - Push The Eagles Stomach
Man Man here with a second song (I did - if I do recall put the other under the Weird Road Trip - the most despised podcast I have here, tune into it and find out what you're missing). This one; even less intelligble.
site | buy
16. Wolf Parade - You Are a Runner and I Am My Father's Son
The British Colombia's indies with a moving tune about the extinction of hedgehogs in the British Isles.
site | buy
17. Ok Go - Invincible
A stupendous lack of exercise machines! Yet the haircuts are brilliant!
site | buy
18. Grassella Oliphant - Ain't that peculiar
Fancy and underrated mid '60s jazz funk brimming with the busted stuttering that breakbeats will one day embrace. How is it that this is unknown?
site | buy
19. Tipper - California Rolls
Tipper is a smart piece of IDM by British Nu Breaker Dave Tipper. Mostly eclectic sometimes elegant - the pop-ish inflections make the access easy and the chill out warmer and more inviting than some other of the similar sort (nothing against you Amon Tobin, but really).
