Random 10 for April 28, 2008
1. The Ruby Suns, “Tane Mahuta.” Kiwis go wholly Maori on this sunny track from “Sea Lion.” Recalls the more exotic excursions from Split Enz, circa Time and Tide.
2. Primus, “Shake Hands with Beef.”
3. The Polyphonic Spree, “Days Like This Keep Me Warm.”
4. Photocall, “Silver Clouds.”
5. These New Puritans, “Elvis.” Dark disco splitting the difference three ways between PiL, Bloc Party and McLusky. Oh, and pleasant dreams after viewing this freaktastic clip.
6. Deerhunter, “Heatherwood.”
7. Boogie Down Productions, “My Philosophy.”
8. Battles, “Bad Trails.”
9. Dntel, “Dumb Luck.”
10. The Knux, “Cappucino.” Much like Blackalicious, The Knux are flying the flag for the long-dormant Native Tongues movement. Being a trusting, hardly ever cynical soul, I’d probably believe it if you told me this was a 1989 artifact. The simulation is perfect, all the way down to the funky-fresh stylee going on in the clip.
