Sometimes its a challenge to post 4 songs you absolutely like every day, like today all I wanted to do was post this amazing Ducktails track which you can preorder the 7″ here. The track just seemed enough, its perfect for a Monday morning headphone getaway.
I also wanted to share this Delorean’s track which is what I put on when I want to pretend the new MGMT record is good because these guys did a better record that will probably hit the same crowd hopefully plus Delorean has a great House music meets tropical thing going.
I have to also include the highly leaked Crystal Castles LP single that is pretty much on every blog, I love the single Doe Deer but its abit rowdy for a Monday morning so this track will be a good preview I guess, its a bit pop for my taste though, like some kind of Little Boots throw away track.
I want to end this on a high note which is this Laid Back track, if you’re a wedding DJ and feel soulless then drop this.
Loving the Ducktails song. Great choice this morning, Jakub!
I used to find Crystal Castles repulsive, but this new song is really good.
is the laid back track not working for anyone else?
It works for me.
Someone at my summer camp came up with a dance for white horse about 10 or so years ago. Hearing it always brings back memories.
yesyesyes!
thank you for continually updating me on new music
agreed. new mgmt lacks the googity
I like the Delorean song…don’t know them other than the stuff that you’ve played on here….need to check them out further.
On a side note, you mentioned the tropical-esq feel in that song, which reminded me of another song I just put on a compilation recently called Tropical by FM Belfast. If you haven’t heard it before, it’s fantastic…very odd and enchanting. Their Icelandic…love their hilarious nonsensical lyrics. It’s like Bjork meets Steel Pulse. And what’s with how crazy musicians are from Island anyway? I love it, but they’re completely nuts. here’s a link to the song:

Laid Back “White Horse” is the most international dance anthem…I have heard it more places across the globe than any other dance single.
Love the commentary on these tracks. I feel the same about MGMT . . . I want to say I like it but am no convincing myself.
I would love to see the dance that Bill the Cat mentioned . . . especially in place of the usual Electric Slide and whatever other wedding line dances that are popular these days.
