Echoes



Its been forever since I've posted on here. Part of that is because I'm a shiftless, lazy transient, but the other part is legitimately because I really have not been keeping my ear tuned to much of any music scene. The reason for that is Digitalism. Although at least 3000-3500 blog years old, I only somewhat recently found them, and even though their ultimate quality is best described as "middling", that doesnt mean I can't love the shit out of them.

The closer to their album is a subdued little track called Echoes. For the last two days, which has included about 7 hours of traveling and a lot of sitting by myself in my old room with headphones on, I have listened to only this song on repeat. If you get a chance before the years out, listen to this song for a few runs and page thru your facebook photos, empty liqour bottle collection, journal, flickr, planner, cell phone, scars, whatever artifacts you might have that made the year what it was.

State of Electro 2008




To kick off my contributions to the cheetah lovefest I present to you a mix of the hottest of the hot: ELECTRO. This movement, fueled by the unstoppable energy of the French dance scene superstars such as Justice, Daft Punk and Sebastian, represents the inevitable reemergence of disco sensibilities through the fusion of electronic and more guitar based rock. While electro's home is certainly the dance floor, this sythesis has created some of the most intense, energetic and driving music being produced today.

While this mix may not represent the newest electro music available, it is certainly some of the most essential. Beginning with the a celebration of that most essential life-blood of electro in the form of the "ecstasy trilogy" and moving directly into some of the most fantastically hedonistic dance music ever created, these songs are the absolute pinnacle of one of the greatest genres to emerge in the last decade.
