“Leaving Solaris (Forecast #6)” from Robert Curgenven‘s Leaving Solaris (Manufacturing Nostalgia) mix for Serein.
< p>I’ve been gone over a week so I thought I’d return with something epic!
“Robotic Sunset” by Basteroid from the 100 years of Areal compilation album.
This compilation is sick! It’s got everyone from Basteroid to Pan/Tone on it! Want even more Basteroid? Listen to his live set here.
“Click Interlude” from Runningonair‘s Click Continue EP.
This track has a 1970’s feel to it. Can somebody please explain why?
“I Remember” from Undermathic‘s 10:10pm album.
I seem to be on a mostly ambient kick this week but with tunes like this, can you blame me?
“Sus” from Pjusk‘s Sval album.
One of the benefits I’m getting from posting tracks to the Song of the Day section of my blog is that it’s forcing me to watch videos, which is always been something of an&emdash;ahem&emdash;a blind spot for me. I don’t know why but I’ve nevber really gotten into music videos. Maybe it’s because I never had MTV as a kid and hencenever developed a taste for videos. Or maybe it’s because music videos require my rapt attention, which means I can’t do anything else, and that makes me fidgety. Nonetheless, this is a beautiful video and had me pretty much fromt he first frame.
“Legal Weapon” from Kaiserdisco‘s from In No One’s Shadow album.
This track would have been perfect on the Ghost in the Shell PlayStation video game.
“Spider Toupet” by Port-Royal from Tympanik Audio‘s Emerging Organisms vol. 4 compilation album.
I’ve been thinking about this video for days. It felt like something lifted out of a fairy tale but really, this idea is so rich and so true that it’s been told again and again. I can’t help but think it has a special relevance for us as we enter the post-scarcity economy, at least n the digital sense. There is so much free media (music, literature, movies, etc) out there that it devalues itself. I’m sure we’ll reach equilibrium at some point but in the here and now it’s unsettling and unsatisfying.

“It Can Get Ugly” from Blaktroniks‘s Ready Set Blow album.
Electro-boogie-robot-soul-funk-hop project from Oakland.
“TRAP SHIT V8” from UZ‘s TRAP SHIT 6/9 EP
This track was made for your jeep. You heads will understand.
“Holy Fallout” from rozz3r‘s D.R.O.I.D. album.
The more I hear of rozz3r’s music the more of a fan I become. Experience it for yourself.
