iMix July 27
:
"1. Claire de lane - Claude Debussy
2. Only This Moment - Royksopp
3. I Never - Rilo Kiley
4. Space Oddity - David Bowie
5. Cash Machine (Album Version) - Hard-fi
6. Hot Ride (Radio Edit) - The Prodigy
7. The Long Goodbye - A Girl Called Eddy
8. Sand and Romance - King Elementary
9. To Be Alone With You - Sufjan Stevens"

ahhh. FINALLY. Another list to peruse. Some of these tracks are all over the place and have only gotten casual listens from me, but I did enjoy them so check em out!! Missing from this list is the grand new offering from both Elbow and the Dandy's. Initial listens of both are strong strong offerings and better than each of their previous releases I thought. I reserve the right to change my mind, duh. Also, I'd like to squash any notions that the last track on this list was something I found on the OC. Though I like the secret shame quality of that show, I haven't seen it. However, Sufjan's release is a total Elliot Smith mood track that makes me want more. amen

ps. I can't express how much I love that rilo kiley song. It's one of those brilliant sing until your blue in the face songs that manage to cross my path every 2 months or so.

Ok,

I've been a bit remiss, but am working on the next IMix (thanks for the suggestion A). I've also noticed that many of the new things i'm digging on aren't available via Rhaps so I may have to start throwing in a few recommendations that I've heard that I won't be able to share via the online Rhapsody experience. Specifically, the new Lucksmiths album is a wonderful mellow gem. The track "the chapter in your life entitled San Francisco" reminds me of my good ole days in SF, despite not knowing any of the lyrics. Fine enough.
