Saturday Songage

Posted In: , , . By Nathan

Because I haven't done a Tuesday Tuneage post in a while I thought I should post this for good measure. Just the three tracks though, don't want to post too much music as i've had a post the last couple days too.

Lil Wayne - Mrs Officer
I like this? I don't even know why specifically. 'Tis good and as more and more hip hop enters into my musical habit it can't be a bad thing, broadens my cultural palette and all that.

Foals - Astronauts 'N All
Just another Foals song that's rather good. I love the band, definitely on the list of 'have to see live'

Justice - DVNO
My favourite Justice song, Cross is just an album I can continually go back to, it's very easy to listen to.

Side note - Good at design? Not got anything to do?
Design me a logo please
use photoshop or something just send it in a jpeg file, so i can upload it, try to get the same shade of red if you can
the hex code for the red is #cc0000

 

Just a couple of songs, I've been listening to both of those alot recently, they're tony the tiger grrrrrrrrrrreat!

Bit obsessed with both, this girl talk remix first is just so amazing! intensely relaxing and surprising piece of remix work from gregg gillis

Peter Bjorn and John - Let's Call it Off (Girl Talk Remix)

Love this foals old single i think, it missed out on the album release proper, made it to a bonus disc though so it's not that bad.
Foals -Hummer

finally got my macbook :) made the transition pretty easily, love it now and i just need some software to be honest.

 

Well I thought I'd write it early, haven't done one for a couple of weeks anyway.


Feral Mare - Christopher
Ok, I do know the drummer, Tom (pictured above), I love this song though. Seeing as I now have a hypem listing I thought I should post this is an effort for the band to get a little more attention. There is a rather big amount of promise there I think.
Myspace

Arctic Monkeys - Flourescent Adolescent (acoustic)
I don't know how/why, but Alex Turner's vocals on this sound much, well human. If that makes sense. There seems to be more behind his voice and the cough he has is just humbling. He's no god, just a great musician/lyricisst. The whole mecca dobber/betting pencil line is hilarious.

Armand Van Helden - You Don't Know Me (GRUM Remix)
Now this is my favourite remix ever, they took a personal favourite dance track and spiced it up, making it ten times better and I just love every second of it. It's just a song that deserves a second, third and fourth consecutive listen. Too me I can see a Justice influence, but I could be wrong. Well done, GRUM

Radiohead - 15 Step (Live @ Lollapalooza 2008)
Regular readers may have read before of my love for Radiohead, I love the band, one of my ambitions is to see them live. This track is a favourite of mine that just somehow sounds amazingly good live, even on recordings, which you have to admit can never compare to being there.

Foals - Olympic Airways
Quite like this new single of Foals, the video is an almost certain head-trip mind-fuck of the Oxford band, it's competely non-senseical but still looks good, Yannis painted black is actually rather interesting, like, how could he have not got it on his face when they're thowing it at him.

I'll be on the college bus by the time this is posted (thanks again to scheduled posting) EEK! I ca't wait for college! YEAH

 

Just thought I'd post this. Been working and have not thought of anything good to post recently to be perfectly honest. Plus this is something really good that I stumbled upon, more than good enough to qualify for PDA

Foals - Hollaback Girl (Gwen Stefani Cover)

Not much more I can say other than: This shh is Bananas - B-A-N-A-N-A-S!


Enjoy

Glastonbury

Posted In: , , . By Nathan

Stayed up late last night watching Glastonbury highlights on the BBC, damn I wanted to be there! I realised how GOOD Editors sound live, their set was simply amazing and convinced me that I must see this band

Editors - Munich

I also love the BBC iplayer, it's great that they've put the full sets up so I'll be watching as much as I can. Without the excessive jamming, Foals probably would be nice to see, they performed well but just took their time getting into it.

Foals - Cassius
Still love this song of theirs, it's just still great even though its been about awhile, something about it's uniqueity and the sound the band create.

I was also very pleasantly surprised by MGMT's set, a brilliant performance that evidently got the crowd going.
MGMT - Kids

There are still some great bands coming up over the rest of the weekend, including Jay Z (I'm not sure what to expect). Tune in if you can!
