je t'appelle (acid radio edit) Armand Van Helden feat. Sahara |
Clubby electronica From my friend Arun's collection. |
|
Bull Jine Run Odetta |
A Black folkish/spiritual version of a kind of sea shanty? Found after looking up their version of Battle Hymn of the Republic. |
|
★ ★ ★ ★ | Plastic Jesus Kenny 3 |
Funny countrified song. "I don't care if it rains or freezes /
Long as I got my plastic Jesus / Riding on the dashboard of my car." I remember this from my youth but it was recently mentioned on an episode of Baby Geniuses podcast. |
★ ★ ★ ★ | Happier Than Ever Billie Eilish |
Dreamy mournful ukulele-ish piece. From her appearance on SNL. |
Tools AKA Me |
Female pop. I think some incidental music on "This American Life" |
|
★ ★ ★ ★ | Beautiful Machine The Shrinks |
Funky little... not even sure of the genre, kinda rock, kinda indie, maybe a shade of punk. |
★ ★ ★ ★ | Arrow The Irrepressibles |
Such a beautiful gay anthem. You must watch this video... the gayest thing I've seen, in the loveliest sense of that word. |
Blue Monday Orgy |
Classic club song (sigh Man Ray), guess it's not quite the original. The podcast 99% Invisible had a piece on how the floppy disk album cover for this single was super expensive. |
|
Alligator Dance (Seneca) Leslie Bowen, Avery Jimerson, Richard Johnny-John, Herbert Dowdy, Sr., Johnson Jimerson & Marty Jimerson |
Seneca music featuring Richard Johnny-John, who sang when my folks were ceremoniously adopted into Seneca clan families. |
|
★ ★ ★ ★ | Words of Advice Material |
In the spirit of "Everyone's Free (To Where Sunscreen)", sardonic advice with a beat. Something from "This American Life". |
Spaceman Harry Nilsson |
Kinda corny 60s rock. From end credits of the first season finale of "Space Force" |
|
Zinda Rehti Hain Unki Mohabbatein (From "Mohabbatein") Lata Mangeshkar |
Music that sounds like it's from Bollywood musicals, starts with percussion I dig. From this tweet about WFH |
|
★ ★ ★ ★ | Goldeneye 007 (Trap Remix) [Mission Status N64 Pause Screen] Trap Remix Guys |
Cool cover of the old N64 video game pause music, with an appealing little skittery skritch of trap music. Sought out a version after this clip on a "watching people die inside" video... it's so much more of a lowkey banger than it needs to be! |
Streets Favorite Capone |
Mediocre hiphop sampling overwrought 60s song "(Remember) Walking in the Sand" background on one of these watching people die inside clips. |
|
★ ★ ★ ★ | Power of Yet Janelle Monae / Sesame Street |
Funky little piece about the power of persistence... |
Melissa and I brought the nieces to see the Dino Safari thing at Quincy Market (someone else's kids in the red photo but just there for scale)
