Fake Blood - I Think I Like It

Here is another song that I heard on BBC Radio One that I'm currently enjoying, "I Think I Like It" by Fake Blood. It's a fun little song that I keep going back to, to listen again.



A lot of the samples in this song came from a disco band called Arabesque and the song "In The Heat Of A Disco-Night".

Rusko - Woo Boost

I heard this song a couple of weeks ago, Woo Boost by Rusko, and it has been stuck in my head.




I still don't really understand what dubstep really is (though, I think that this song is considered it). All I know is that I really like the wobbly, grimy bass sound that he has going on there.

LCD Soundsystem's New Album

LCD Soundsystem is releasing their new album, "This is Happening" next month, and today a couple more tracks from the CD have been released. I found this over at We All Want Someone To Shout For today.

Metallica - Enter Sandman (Smooth Jazz Version)

Haha...awesome.

MGMT - Congratulations

MGMT has made their new, yet to be released (except by the dirty pirates) album, Congratulations, available for listening on their website. They had only released the song Flash Delirium before this...a song that I wasn't entirely sure of, but it grows on me the more that I listen to it. Watching the video for the song on the site is something else completely!

Nothing on the album grabs me as immediately as some songs on the Oracular Spectacular album (Electric Feel, Kids, Time to Pretend), but there is some solid stuff on this album.

Song 3

So here is the third attempt at recording something that I have been working on. Really simple beat and synth parts, but I like the feel to the song. The levels are a bit off, the percussions drown out the synth in parts, but in recording I'm not really going for perfection, rather just trying to record something that I can share with people and get their input. So please, critique away. I'm still new to all of this, so anything that people can offer in ideas, or advice will give me something to work on.

This started this past weekend. My mom and her partner were up in town helping me pack up the house a bit and get things organized. Both nights they were here, they were in bed pretty early, so I spent the last few hours of each night just playing around with everything, and this is what came of it. A couple of nights this week I brought the ideas together, practiced tonight, and this is the result.

Jam night with the guys tomorrow. I hope to record some of it, as we can make some pretty interesting stuff at times while we are just playing around.

Mix: Hells Yes

I threw together a quick mix CD for the car on the weekend. I spent _no_ time at all figuring out what should go on it really, or what order...so it's a bad mix, but full of goodness at the same time.

1. Think About It - Lyn Collins
2. I Can See It In Your Face - Pretty Lights
3. Street Player (Paul Raymond Re-Edit) - Chicago
4. Tibet On It - Chicago Afrobeat Project
5. Why Don't You (Original Mix) - Gramophonedzie
6. We Are Rockstars - Does It Offend You Yeah
7. Pong (Extended Mix) - Wippenberg
8. I'm Not Alone - Calvin Harris
9. Lisztomania (Alex Metric Remix) - Phoenix
10. Heavy Cross - Gossip
11. Sleep Deprivation - Simian Mobile Disco
12. Pogo - Digitalism
13. Style - Gorillaz

It's really just a collection of good songs, and for the 5 minutes I spent putting it together, it was worth the effort.
