Hot Chip - Need You Know

Sort of melancholic but love the disco diva sample.

Swedish artist HNNY makes some simple, sample based sunny music too:

I've been listening and adding tracks to this playlist all summer:

https://open.spotify.com/user/moteldemoka/playlist/7mxHhrMyUGjK55aKZemx76

Most of them coincide with the ones in here but there's some songs from past years as well.

xp was it martorialist? think i saw him on the case iirc

last i checked there were little mutated bits here and there but not all coalesced to any big mix level (would need some blogger to make its uprooted case anyway) but i'll have another look

these all tend to arise from the uk roadrap type scene (sbtv / madaboutmixtapes on youtube, sort of a combo between datpiff and the old youth-submitted urban tv channel channel-u from grime's mid to late 00s) and tbh a lot of it is a terrible chore to sift thru for truffles, ime anyway

For sheer unavoidability, if for nothing else, I am reservedly nomming

The Weeknd - Can't Feel My Face
Skrillex / Diplo / Bieber - Where Are U Now
Rihanna - Bitch Better Have My Money

Otherwise, this is a quick reminder that summer is sadly over (though latecomers will be added to playlist through the end of the year) and that all available tracks mentioned on this thread have being updated to the thread-specific Spotify playlist as posted. I just did another top-to-bottom sweep prior to posting this message and have revised as of today with everything that's been added since first mentioned. It's 94 tracks, over 6 hours.

Add "No Sleeep" to that list, pronto.

Probably well past time to consider any here but as we move to the end of the year, I'd like to drop a quick note to encourage any readers / lurkers / ilxors to post their favorite summer jams from this year to the thread so that I can hoover them into the ongoing spotify playlist. Last chance for any accessible stragglers that may not already be in the lexicon.

Eugene Goostman (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 1 December 2015 08:41 (eight years ago) link

three weeks pass...

I'm wrapping this playlist for the year. It has been updated with a few new adds (Geko, Macross 82-99, Format: B) and includes every track mentioned on thread that is available via Spotify's US catalogue as of EOY 2015. If I missed something or if a track comes available sometime in the future, bump here to let me know and I'll add.
