confusion girl

i've been on a new music hiatus, in part because my hard drive is now full of music and photos. but tonight i was compelled to stop at favorite discodust, and it was fruitful, as always.

on an upbeat note, russ chimes remixes frankmusik's latest, confusion girl:

frankmusik - confusion girl (russ chimes remix)

on a sleepytime note, sail a whale remixes memory cassette's surfin:

lastnights...mj tribute

my favorite michael jackson tribute, from lastnightsparty:

delorean

delorean just made my 4th of july weekend a lot better. the ayrton senna mixtape is 35 minutes of dance-pop-bliss. don't know too much about delorean beyond the fact that they're from spain and they can always be counted on for great remixes. but that's good enough for me. this will go a long way toward keeping me happy amidst the inevitable traffic jams ahead. you can stream/download at the link below:

antlers

i'm in love with 'hospice', the latest album from the antlers. the music takes you on a bit of a journey - that at least for me, lands somewhere between broken social scene, and talk talk's 'spirit of eden,' which i only recently discovered, but highly recommend for late nights and long drives. my first impressions of the antlers came from the single 'two,' which you can hear below, or here at spinner, where you can listen to the entire album for free - at least for now. 'two' is a simple, but powerful song takes its sweet time getting there, but clearly stands out, along with 'bear,' as one of the album's few truly accessible songs. this an album to take in its entirety...beautiful, atmospheric melodies often take precedence over whispered vocals (try the haunting 'thirteen'). the songs blend together so nicely that i almost wish they hadn't bothered breaking it down into the individual tracks.
