The next music post, finally
Sep. 21st, 2006 05:50 pmI hear we're supposed to make five ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
blind_go aftermath posts but I don't trust myself not to slip up and refer to my story by title. *g* I've mentioned it enough, certainly.
Various people have been making noises re the Junior Boys (whose tour isn't stopping in Montreal, bastids, but if they did come I'd just be missing them alongside Ladytron and Trentemoller and THE PET SHOP BOYS and gawdknowswho else):
Junior Boys - More Than Real (9.1MB)
Junior Boys - Bellona (7.8MB)
Junior Boys - Last Exit (9.1MB)
Junior Boys - Double Shadow
From the first and second album respectively (I'll upload "Like a Child" later this evening). The first album is more IDM-y and introspective - I don't know if it's because I was told it was made in some bloke's bedroom in small-town Ontario, but I actually find it hard to get into unless it's miserably grey and Canadian outside and I'm cold or hungover or lacking for sleep or all three. It doesn't seem to 100% suit any other mood. XD Someone on ILM said it dates itself more than one'd expect and this is true as well, but I tend to feel in a positive way, like the first Ladytron album.
The second album seems dancier and... sharper, somehow, but I haven't heard all of it.
Trentemoller - Take Me Into Your Skin (17.7MB): speaking of whom. I'm really tempted to order this album, if only because you could've told me this was anyone but Trentemoller. XD;; M83 with less cheese, say, or Ulrich Schnauss without the twee. It's dark melodic IDM, more or less.
Gui Boratto - Like You (Supermayer Remix) (10.1MB): the person standing next to me at the Ellen Allien & Apparat show actually popped a thingy of amyl nitrite, so fwiw I now know what it smells like (I live my life thinking, one of these days I'll find a way to use that in fic =_=). I mention because the track sounds rather like inhaling something volatile and giddy, only without the wanton brain-cell destruction. Hopefully, anyway. It'd probably slay at 4AM when everyone is tired, as it is I start laughing uncontrollably every time the clockwork tin whistle wind-up toy noises come in.
Kid Alex feat. Kimo Greene - Fame (Milk & Sugar Club Mix) (10.2MB): from a Hed Kandi comp![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
serendip gave me called Twisted Disco, which also has the Richard X Javine track and the Scissor Sisters Bucci Bag track, so let that serve as the description. *g* Proper house with a twist (of lemon peel, probably).
Tsuji Ayano - Swallowtail Butterfly ~Ai no uta~: not dance shokku. From the "your college roommate skips her 2PM class and sits crosslegged on the bed noodling with her guitar" school of covers. Sounds as if it were recorded through a lapel pin microphone with a handheld tape deck.
