Rêves D'été
01. Datarock - Computer Camp Love
An extremely cute play on melody & lyrics from Grease.

Oh, St. Vincent. You do no wrong.
03. Atmosphere - The Jackpot and Swept Away
This follows Atmosphere's usual bitter tone with clever lyrics and a super catchy beat.

A good majority of my summer was spent scooping ice cream for beach-side tourists.
"If you want me sober and straight, I'm afraid I'm gonna be a little bit late."
05. of Montreal - Beware Our Nubile Miscreants
Some genius from their most recent album Skeletal Lamping

Great song. Future goal.

Mmm, the Italian Alps were lovely.

They give a killer show.

Makes me wanna smash something, if you know what I mean (;

High five for summer break-ups.
11. Bright Eyes - From a Balance Beam
Yeah, yeah. I know. But it's a pretty choice chanson.
12. Ben Kweller - Different But the Same
Inspiring lyrics for those dreary, lonely nights.
13. Broken Social Scene - Looks Just Like the Sun
Dreamy, dazy, delicious.
14. Atmosphere - Sunshine
Storyline of a day that started out with a massive hangover and morphed into a fun, sunny bike ride.
15. of Montreal - The Repudiated Immortals
Intoxicating and not nearly as long as I'd like it to be.
16. TV On the Radio - Poppy
Lovely, romantic nights in Paris without expectations.
17. Phoenix - Long Distance Call (25 Hours A Day Mix)
An extremely adorable mix of an already adorable song.

I like to end mixes with this one. Nice summery feel.

So there you have the track list.
Interested?

New Handsome Furs, kids. 
Probably my favorite husband wife duo making music, this new venture really isn't anything new or risky or groundbreaking. Which is totally fine with me, Plague Park was fucking excellent, and Face Control is more of the same. Favorite track is probably number 2, Evangeline. Persistant bass line, great electric hook, and Dan Boeckner's wailing "Oh Ohhhhhhh, Evangeline..."
It's just great. Listen to it. Album is out 3/10.
But it's already leaked elsewhere for anybody that cares.....

sooooooooo good.

Daily Dig #24: They want it fast, but they don't want flaws. I'm a girl's best friend. Can you cut? I can cut cause I'm a rough gem.


Islands - Rough Gem
It's hard to imagine the Islands being new to anyone's ears, but if anything, here's a nice little "gem", if you will. As can usually be expected, there's great lyrical imagery and sweet up-beats.

Daily Dig #22: Slight of hand won't separate your body from the dirt you're standing on today


Modest Mouse - You're the Good Things
Modest Mouse's EP Everywhere And His Nasty Parlour Tricks is frequently one of my favorite albums. Depth of lyrical content and musical creativity is something Modest Mouse never fails to excel in.

Daily Dig #20: I could not recall a more perfect fall cause when I looked up into your eyes, it didn't hurt at all.


The Postal Service - Be Still My Heart
We've all heard Such Great Heights and the various, excessive covers of it, which can never, will never, and should never measure up to the original, imvho. Be Still My Heart is one of their lesser known songs. I'm sure I found it by pure luck. It's one of their best (yes, I said it; best) songs.

Daily Dig #19: If Noah had the benefit of hindsight on his ship, he could have snatched two unicorns and left behind the m. f-ing pigs.

This isn't one you'll want to share with Mom & Pop, kay?
Yeah, yeah, it's been a while. I'm taking nineteen hours.
Things is crazy. Wish me luck at the callback tonight!
