Random 10 for April 21, 2009
1. Micachu and the Shapes, “Lips.” Mica Levy is a 22-year-old Brit doing that freakout atonal shuffle that made Stump so annoying and wonderful 20 years ago. Hers is a hairstyle that needs to come back, though I don’t know if I can pull it off anymore.
2. Brookville, “Talk Again.”
3. Otis Redding, “Ole Man Trouble.”
4. Ravens & Chimes, “January.”
5. King Khan and BBQ Show, “Fish Fight.”
6. Hatcham Social, “So So Happy Making.” This London band recently released its debut disc, You Dig the Tunnel, I’ll Hide the Soil, produced by Tim Burgess of the Charlatans. And yes, it sounds just like that information implies.
7. LCD Soundsystem, “Time To Get Away.”
8. Beck, “The Horrible Fanfare.”
9. Bettye LaVette, “Sleep To Dream.”
10. 3rd Bass, “The Gas Face.” MF Doom makes one of his earliest appearances on this song, but as his earlier nom de rap, Zev Love X.
