StarsAsEyes+Mullinix+Selway+JamieJones
I know what some of you might be thinking, Hey! i’ve seen a similar album cover recently by a few musicians like Adele but she just ripped it off from the IDM classic remix LP Marumari’s “The Remixes” on Carpark from 2002. Just kidding, i’m sure none of you thought that. I always loved this remix, later in the song it reminds me if U2 asked Lusine to do a remix, but I feel the whistling high synth is a sample of an actual U2 song but I can’t put my finger on it, Mux Mool says it reminds him of Geto Boys – Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta, I can hear that.
Tadd Mullinix aka Dabrye aka James T. Cotton aka SK-1 kicked off the Ghostly catalog in 2000 with his Dark IDM meets dark classical album called Winking Makes A Face. The beauty of this song in my opinion reveals itself starting at 2:23 and on, it has such good composition, when I just heard it I realized that the geniuses of this generation of composers should be making music like this.
Tom Croose turned me onto this John Selway song, it should be coming out on vinyl on Throne of Blood which is The Rapture’s label, its a nice deep cut that rides out all the way to the end nicely.
I have a list of 2009 Summer Jams, In my Top 25 Jamie Jones is climbing up that chart with his hit Summertime, should be out next month for any of you slow house vinyl junkies, it would be in the Top 10 but that breakdown is god awful, any wanna do an edit? please email it to me.
For the indie rock fans, sorry for the all electronic post today but The Decemberists will be on Colbert Report tonight so that should be good.
