petroniaChateau Flight - Baltringue (12.1MB): highly catchy French house. Dansudansu points are awarded for usage of disco triangle, steel drum presets, and a "bouncy" bassline.
Depeche Mode - The Sinner In Me (Ricardo Villalobos Conclave Remix) (19MB): has been knocking around for a while - I remember posting about its inclusion in a Villalobos live set in March - and finally released as part of The Best Of Volume 1 (Remixes). This is one of those microtribalhouse tracks that sound like sitting on Mount Royal and listening to people play the bongos, except after a while Dave Gahan gets up and starts to sing.
Rex The Dog - Maximize (17.6MB): latest Rex single. I saw a ridiculous number of bad reviews for this, from which fact I can only conclude that people hate fun. It is kind of utterly bonkers though... See the little guy in my icon? Picture him wearing a cape and flying through the air, fighting crime with an analog synthesizer. DOG DOG DOG DOG DOG DOG
Trentemoller - Always Something Better (Vocal Version featuring Richard Davis)
Trentemoller - Always Something Better (Trentemoller Remix)
Yesterday there was an ice storm. A little ice storm, not Storm of the Century standard - a few thousand households without electricity due to downed power lines, a few uprooted trees along Queen Mary Boulevard. By the time I left work the damage was mostly done and the sidewalks clear, but trees and fences and cars and grass were coated in a glassy, half-centimeter sheath of ice; branches bent and laden, glistening under the streetlights. This is like that, beautiful and bleak.
