geekent’s stuff’n things

I’ve gotten two mixed cds with the Rapture’s House of Jealous Lovers and the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s Maps them.
I bought my own copy of !!!’s Me & Giuliani down by the schoolyard (a true story) but I also got a copy on a mixed cd as well. You can nod sing and clap along with this song. You can’t.
And I have to say the Seven Nation Army by White Stripes has the best bass line since MJ’s Billy Jean.
I don’t know if you can count remixes of songs from last year that were released this year, but there’s a few awesome mixes of “Verbal” by Amon Tobin.
Well, it’s a start.

New additions:
Lifesavas - Hellohihey –> This has to be the greatest anti-ego trip song in a long time. If Blackalicious is Quannum’s De La, and Latyrx is Tribe, then Lifesavas are Q’s Black Sheep. I’m eager for a follow up now.

Newer additions:
Atom and his Package - Mustache T.V. –> Right, you’ve got it. Atom’s one guy, he writes quirky songs, plays guitar, programmes synths to accompany him. He’s a one trick pony. BUT, the guy writes fucking amazing, funny, fun and catchy as hell songs. Mustache T.V. from “Attention! Blah, Blah, Blah” is an easy standout. And it’s true, if you do draw a mustache on your tv, it will make you feel better.
Dears - We Can Have It–> this spiralling operatic rock song is the perfect way to kick off any mixed compilation. It literally gives me shivers listening to it.
