Bob Dylan - I Was Young When I Left Home
I didn’t know what the hell to upload so I went out on a whim and picked this one out. Easily in my top 5 Dylan songs of all time, it’s just so rustic and pure. And the lyrics really hit me. Really really hit me. Nowhere enough people have heard this one.
Alice In Chains - Take Her Out
The new AiC album is fantastic. I never thought it would be as good as it is. Here’s a little taster. RIP Layne.
Venetian Snares - Szamár Madár
Another electronic song. And a fucking awesome one at that. Breakcore beats with some classical thrown in for good measure. Can’t beat it.
Tom Waits - Tom’s Traubert Blues (Four Sheets to the Wind in Copenhagen)
Tom Waits is my homeboy. Listen to find out why.
Elliott Smith - Pictures of Me
Thinking about it now, I’m really surprised I didn’t upload an Elliott Song earlier. He’s probably my favorite singer songwriter of all time, and once you listen to his music, he’ll probably be yours too. All instruments on this recording where played by Smith.
Aphex Twin - To Cure A Weakling Child
This song pretty much encorporates everything I love about electronic music. Hail the Aphex.
Grizzly Bear - Ready, Able
Arguably the best song from their latest album (Veckatimest), and definately my favorite. Tight vocal harmonies and melodies put Grizzly Bear right up their as one of the best indie bands around atm. Seeing them at Manchester Cathedral in a couple of months is going to be amazing.
Saltillo - A Necassary End
Sad music for sad people. The best trip-hop I’ve heard in a long time.
