Working on my mix for the latest @forumz exchange. Thoughts?
New Years - Ohbijou
Ddiamondd - Battles
The Watchmaker - The Tom Fun Orchestra
Good Days - Fembots
Boyfriend in a Coma (demo) - Amanda Palmer
Everything You Believe is a Lie - The Burning Hell
I Was a Daughter - Basia Bulat
Postcards from Italy - Beirut
Augury - John Kameel Farah
Northern Lights - Olenka and the Autumn Lovers
The Apocalypse Song - St. Vincent
Startup Chime - Ladytron
Oslo in the Summertime - Of Montreal
Stay - Son Lux
Moon and Moon - Bat for Lashes
The Book of Right On - Joanna Newsom
Force - Tanya Tagaq
Tetrishead - Zoe Keating
It has more "@-darlings" on it than I'd like (Bat for Lashes, Joanna N, Amanda P, St. V), but last.fm shows me the person I'm paired with rarely/never listens to those 4 in particular, despite his charts being very """"vag-friendly"""", if you will.
I tried to leaven with some lesser-known Canadiana (Burning Hell, Fembots, Tom Fun, Olenka) and some moderately 'out there' experimental stuff (Tagaq, JK Farah, Zoe Keating to a lesser extent).
I know the Beirut and Of Montreal are "oh god EVERYONE knows these songs," but they are good mix standbys, and also last.fm suggests they will be new to my trading partner.
