Illusions for your brain, LINK
Modeselektor – Suckerpin (Feadz Remix) – Off of the Happy Birthday Remixed #3 single, this remix only enhances the funky chaos known as MDSLKTR.
Jesse Rose – Well Now – Part blues and part techno. Very much in the vein of the blu tribunl compilation.
Riceboy Sleeps – Indian Summer – From Jón Þór Birgisson, lead singer of Sigur Rós, and Alex Somers producing beautiful ambient music.
Squeeze – Take Me, I’m Yours – One of the great pop bands of any era and one of the great songwriting duos in Difford and Tillbrook. And for quite a long time, from their show in 1987 it was one of the best concert experiences. I was 50 years old back then, and now I’m hitting puberty. Go figure.
Serious Faces For Serious Music: Modeselektor
XLR8R Magazine in their ongoing quest to serve you the next chapter in the development of life, i mean, music, offers yet another excellent Podcast. And this time around, it features one of our favorites here in the sunny-delight office of FroWheel, Modeselektor, who will also be featured in the new Speaking In Code documentary–go see the trailer…. I think this may be the movie to help bring a better understanding of the power of electronic music, mainly techno, and how it is truly music that you can fully immerse yourself in, mentally as well as physically.
Modeselektor will also be playing with Ellen Allien at Mighty on Friday September 5th in Sun Francisco brought to you by the fine people at Blasthaus and XLR8R.
Elevator, 2008
Distance and space. from people. in between words. pauses. thoughts. gazes. your stride. your perception of reality. of memories. a smell. a sound. an act. what causes one to remember one moment versus another.
i remember looking out the rear windshield of my dad’s car when i was about 5 yrs old. it was right by where we were living at the time, and i guess it was a perfect frame for my memory of the tall trees with leaves falling from the impending darkness of winter. i remember telling myself that i would remember this picture. i would capture this moment.
transition. letting go. to start again. the leaves falling, the eyes opening………
Here are some beats for your day of humpness. Trentemoller being the common thread with a bit of Pole, Modeselektor and Thom Yorke.
