This week's 6 pack's got POW-er. Sade's new one, White Stripes remixed, hot ass shit from Simian Mobile Disco, Devendra Bernhart, jammy newcomers Man/Miracle & a Death Cab cover.
No Christmas music here. Just songs that have nothing to do with tomorrow's SantaCon in LA. We're skipping out on it to do some very neglected Christmas shopping. Have fun Santa Ted, Santa Bunny and all you other fine cacophonous kings and queens.
DOWNL0AD: SantaCon not SantaCon 6 pack.zip
Sade - 'Soldier of Love'
First new Sade in 10+ years. Still sultry, of course. Military drums, if Timba was a drum major instead of a producer. Semi-timeless.
Simian Mobile Disco f. Beth Ditto of The Gossip - 'Cruel Intentions'
SMD takes Beth's usual fierceness and freezes it into sexy iciness in this house track. Check the insane sex power play video, here.
White Stripes - 'Blue Orchid (LehtMoJoe mix)'
Replace Meg White with a drum machine and Jack White's guitar intermittantly with synths? Sounds much better on your stereo than it sounds on blogpaper.
Devendra Bernhart - 'Rats'
He's a freak. And sorta folky. This one comes off all Jim Morrison before grooving out in the funky end.
Man/Miracle - 'Hot sprawl'
Jammifunness. Impossibly beautiful, bedreaded Boulder girls are already circling their arms in the air to this piece of shouty hot sprawling groove.
Amy Milan - 'I Will Follow You Into the Dark (Death Cab cover)'
Slide guitar-based, softly innocent cover. There's a slight catch in Amy's voice that speaks of youthful regrets, whiskey and late nights. As light as the original was devastating.
Be safe, Santa.
