Stuff on my iphone.



  • LCD Soundsystem: "Someone Great," from "Sound of Silver." 2007. Here's a trippy, presumably unauthorized video (from China?) with what look like lo-fi autogenerated fractals, and good quality sound: Video Link. (Amazon | iTunes )

  • Editors: "An End Has a Start." 2007. Video Link. (Amazon | iTunes)

  • U.N.K.L.E. (this track -- James Lavelle + DJ Shadow + Richard Ashcroft + Thom Yorke): "Rabbit in Your Headlights," from "Psyence Fiction." 1998. Jonathan Glazer directed this: Video Link. (Amazon | iTunes)

  • A bunch of that Balkan beat stuff we blogged last week: Link.

  • Miles Davis: "Solea," from "Sketches of Spain." 1960. No video of Miles himself performing this particular piece exists on YouTube or other easily searchable repositories, but here's a Video Link to the Chicago Jazz Ensemble performing it, with Orbert Davis on trumpet. (Amazon | iTunes)

  • Brian Eno: "An Ending (Ascent)," from "Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks." 1983. Here's a fan-made Video Link. (Amazon | iTunes)
