  2. Placebo - Running Up that Hill
  3. Azealia Banks - 212 FT. Lazy Jay
    Reminds me of Whale, in a way. Interesting and changes up nicely. I'd like to hear more layers. Definitely going to look for more of this.
  4. Aretha Franklin - Chain of Fools
  5. Mother Mother - Oh Ana
  6. Squarepusher - Red Hot Car
    This is trippy. I'm curious if these samples are programmed or if someone is playing an electronic drum kick triggering them. Whatever, it's different and pretty cool.
  7. The Beach Boys - Don't Worry Baby
  8. Danny Kaye - Lullaby In Ragtime
  9. Sparks - The Final Derriere
  10. Fields of the Nephilim - Preacher Man

Pretty varied list throughout. Fun stuff!


My R4 nom:
Jack White - Love Is Blindness
I watched the more recent Gatsby flick earlier tonight and this was in the soundtrack. I'm most always a Jack White fan, but this was is balls to the wall, IMO.

Azealia Banks - 212 FT. Lazy Jay - Only discovered this song (and artist) about 6 months ago. No matter how well or badly it does, it's already a point better off than I thought it'd be because it managed not to be last on gbg's list, which I was confident it would be. Less of a surprise was seeing that Cap liked it, but I was pleased with how much.

Fields of the Nephilim - Preacher Man - Yeah, I'm going for this. So long as the vocal doesn't get any more 'grunt' I think it'll do well with me.

Anjali - Kali Came - Quite liked this. A bit like an acoustic Portishead vibe.

Aretha Franklin - Chain of Fools - A classic.

Placebo - Running Up that Hill - I like Placebo and this is a good cover.

The Beach Boys - Don't Worry Baby - It's a nice song, but not one of my favourites of theirs.

Squarepusher - Red Hot Car - I'm guessing this is pretty new, but it sounds quite late 90's/early 00's to me. Like The Artful Dodger and acts like that?

Danny Kaye - Lullaby In Ragtime - Not really my thing, but not annoying or anything. Just kind of there. Considering how I feel today, that's not a bad thing. Actually, by the end, I was starting to wish it'd finish, so it's lost a place.

Mother Mother - Oh Ana - Quirky and I like it, but I'm not well today and even at 2 minutes it's starting to annoy me.

Sparks - The Final Derriere - Meh. Not really working for me today. I think it's doing exactly what it's trying to, I just wish it wasn't.
