Track Of The Week

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

Every week, or just any week you can/want to, list just ONE new track you've heard for the first time that week that really stands out for you in some way. And if you can say why that would be very nice too.

Remember, just ONE track any given week. If someone else already mentioned it I guess maybe you could pick another.

Look, come on I haven't got all day. This is a much better idea than that stupid 'list all the good records to come out this year' thread.

― blueski, Friday, 9 March 2007 16:03 (eighteen years ago)

this week i can't get enough of...

joel mull, "stepping"

― andrew m., Friday, 9 March 2007 16:07 (eighteen years ago)

I think it was the end of last week to be honest, but I heard Busta Rhymes' "I'm Just Getting Warm" and that morse code bleeping beat had me getting mad hyperbolic.

― Noodle Vague, Friday, 9 March 2007 16:26 (eighteen years ago)

i've already hyped this album elsewhere on ilm, but here's round two:

big business - "i'll give you something to cry about"

this is a great melvins-style sludge metal band, and this is one of my top two favorite tracks on the album (gotta love the title too!). it's the second to last track, and the longest one. at around 8-9 minutes, it starts fist pumping with an insane amount of energy, and by the end it's devolved into a long om-style drone.

Nick Garrie - "Ink Pot Eyes"

It has that odd George Harrison faux-slide guitar peppering the verses like a country-pop act from the early 70's then melds it with a dead on late 60's Bee-Gees delicate pop sound with lots of space in the bass and then those doubled vocals in the chorus and the banging piano in counterpoint to the title love the opening drumbreak to the chorus and the slight improvising throughout the chorus as well overall quite impressive.

Joe Henderson - Junk Blues

From "Joe Henderson in Japan," 1971 - features a killin' all-Japanese rhythm section, keyboardist plays what I think like a Rhodes. Furious up-tempo minor modal tune obviously made in the wake of Coltrane (opening figure references "Alabama") but not overly beholden to him. Joe Henderson does some fantastic, intense blowing for the first five minutes or so, but the real surprise for me was the rhythm section - electric pianist Hideo Ichikawa treading so lightly over such a heavy groove and making it swing, and bassist Kunimitsu Inaba, and drummer Motohiko Hino just murdering it with their solos. A nice bonus is the genuinely excited and a little drunk-sounding crowd.

― Hurting 2, Friday, 9 March 2007 18:16 (eighteen years ago)

I'm really loving Julien Jabre's - Swimming Places (Jerome Sydenham Mix) right now, I've loved pretty much everything I've heard from Ferrer and Sydenham in the past year or so. Great idea for a thread Ronan.

― Jena, Friday, 9 March 2007 18:22 (eighteen years ago)

Teeth of Lions Rule the Divine - "He Who Accepts All that Is Offered (Feel Bad Hit of the Winter)"

― Cameron Octigan, Sunday, 11 March 2007 04:16 (eighteen years ago)

gabriel ananda - 'egge'

doppelwhipper-plus if that's even possible, that same awesome live percussion rattling around everywhere and an irresistible "doo-doo-doo! doo-doo-doo!" vocal melody, and then two thirds of the way through it all turns into a drill and makes me lose my mind

and it's called EGGE

― lex pretend, Sunday, 11 March 2007 11:38 (eighteen years ago)

drill n' house?

i guess my track of the week is that Audio Club tune i posted about on Teenpop thread, but i will try and make more effort...

― blueski, Sunday, 11 March 2007 12:09 (eighteen years ago)

you're all lucky this thread wasn't started last week, so you don't have to put up with me waxing lyrical and weeping into my keyboard trying to find words to describe the seismic impact of "part 1/IBM 1401 processing unit", the first track from johann johannsson's "ibm 1401, a user's manual", upon my soul.

this week it's easier: "no pussy blues" by grinderman. the album's not all it should have been, but that track ... woah. raw as bones and funny as fuck (literally). tremendous, glorious, raucous joy.

this is a great idea for a thread.

― grimly fiendish, Sunday, 11 March 2007 13:19 (eighteen years ago)

nb subs: pls to insert comma before "upon" there. ta.

― grimly fiendish, Sunday, 11 March 2007 13:20 (eighteen years ago)

Nick Garrie - "Ink Pot Eyes"

Yeah this is probably my favourite song on Stanislas. I like it better than the big song off that record, "Deeper tones of Blue". I think my dislike for that song stems from the opening line: 'Your lips are slightly warm..' Kinda makes me cringe a little bit.

― Drooone, Sunday, 11 March 2007 22:23 (eighteen years ago)

"boogie 2nite" by Booty Luv. Sad but true!

― kv_nol, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 12:47 (eighteen years ago)

No shame in it, it's a terrific track mainly because it is 100% generic - frustratingly "perfect" in every way.

― Siegbran, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 18:34 (eighteen years ago)

I'm surprised this thread isn't more popular.

Anyway, I realised this morning that my track of the week is "Vincent O'Brien".

One of M. Ward's greatest gifts aren't his subtle alt-country and blues arrangements or his understated double-tracked vocals but rather the way he uses simple lyrical ideas to genius effect. There's something that just works about the refrain "He only drinks* when he's sad/And he's sad all the time/So he drinks the whole night through/And he drinks in the daytime too". Everything about the delivery and simplicity of that verse just sums up M.Wards post-Waitsian genius. Elsewhere in his back catalogue we have this excellent verse: "To all the people underground/Listening to the sound/Of the living people going up and down the way/Well one of them is mine/I visited my fraulein/She's only one life away". The lyrics flow so effortlessly it's as if they'd been written and passed on through generations.

I'm not a big fan of country and blues music in general, but this guy somehow transcends the oft-associated staidness of said genres by substituting lavish, modern production with incredibly simple but effective arrangements. Some songs will feature many many layers of guitar, vocal, and other instruments but it never feels like they're fighting for room. M.Ward is a true and highly underrated talent and really needs more exposure over and above the rest of the Americana bunch.

*dreams?

― the next grozart, Thursday, 15 March 2007 09:52 (eighteen years ago)

It's drinks and dreams at different parts of the song I believe. M Ward is a God. There are enough incidences of me saying this on ILM! Favourite song: "Carolina" off of End of Amnesia. Actually no, there are a few. He would be the only singer songwriter that I am completely fanboyish about!

― kv_nol, Thursday, 15 March 2007 12:19 (eighteen years ago)

I haven't got End Of Amnesia. I think I must be the only person who likes Transistor Radio the best. Paul's Song is the dealbreaker on that one although I have been checking out "Vincent" and it is also good. What album is "Magic Trick" on? That's a paritcularly good one too.

― the next grozart, Thursday, 15 March 2007 12:26 (eighteen years ago)

That's on Post War. I found Transistor Radio rather dull and uninspired. I just felt that he was coasting and not really doing anything new.

― kv_nol, Thursday, 15 March 2007 13:16 (eighteen years ago)

it's the first one i heard, so maybe i'm approaching it differently.

― the next grozart, Thursday, 15 March 2007 14:12 (eighteen years ago)

Well you couldn't have started on better in a way because they can only get more exciting! The last track (the cover of Let's Dance) on Transfiguration of Vincent is great. To prevent any further derailing of Blueski's great thread check out this one for more M. Ward goodness.

― kv_nol, Thursday, 15 March 2007 15:33 (eighteen years ago)

i've downloaded nearly all the tracks on this thread. more please!

― the next grozart, Thursday, 15 March 2007 15:54 (eighteen years ago)

I'm currently liking Tepr's 'Minuit Jacuzzi (feat Grand Marnier)'. Don't know anything about Tepr or Grand Marnier, if anyone does, please say here. It's that fast overdriven squelchy electronic bass sounds with Zapp & Roger style vocals. Not to everyone's taste but worth a listen.

Plus, great idea for a thread - Stevem, as the creator, you should list a track every two or three days!

― NI, Friday, 16 March 2007 15:30 (eighteen years ago)

"Acceptable In the 80's" by Calvin Harris.

― everything, Friday, 16 March 2007 16:11 (eighteen years ago)

Stevem, as the creator, you should list a track every two or three days!

I was looking for inspiration cos I don't have much lately. Then there's making the time to actually listen to the recommendations...I will definitely post about new tracks I hear if I like them enough tho.

― blueski, Friday, 16 March 2007 17:34 (eighteen years ago)

Oh oh, 'Uptown' by Pleasure - one of the most uplifting and brilliant pop songs I've heard in months, hugely PSB.

(I'll gmail you these over the next few days, Steve)

― NI, Saturday, 17 March 2007 02:27 (eighteen years ago)

While I won't say that I don't like the Pleasure song, it is just a bit too much the 80s clone for me, right down to the stuttered vocals at the end that recall Nu Shooz.

The song I'm obsessing over at the moment is (shudder) on myspace -- "Sun in My Pocket" by Sonicflyer. At the end of the day, it's probably not more than a Brtipop pastiche, but everything's in the right place (good riffs, instantly memorable melody, pleasant vocals, and a few little lyric phrases that stick in your mind even when you don't pay attention to those things). The production could probably be better, but not bad at all for a unsigned band.

the stuttered vocals at the end that recall Nu Shooz

^This is not a negative.^

There's something about that Calvin Harris song that makes me grit my teeth. It has almost everything that should be great, catchy tunes, good paced, ze kidz love it, etc but I cannot stand that line 'I got love for you if you were born in the aay-ties'. It feels like a song off b3ta.com that somehow broke free into the charts. I fully expected photoshopped kittens playing guitars in the video.

― NI, Sunday, 18 March 2007 15:58 (eighteen years ago)

yeah i know what you mean about calvin harris.

Best morbid dance track of the week - Someone Great by LCD Soundsystem

― Drooone, Sunday, 18 March 2007 23:08 (eighteen years ago)

it'll have to be LCD soundsystem for me too; probably "all my friends" 'cos i heard "someone great" yonks ago (and not just on the nike thing, grr).

― grimly fiendish, Sunday, 18 March 2007 23:32 (eighteen years ago)

ongoing track of the year, meanwhile, is "4,738 regrets" by trans am.

― grimly fiendish, Sunday, 18 March 2007 23:33 (eighteen years ago)

convextion - miranda; re-issue of a mid-90s detroit classic (supposedly, i was like 12 at the time and listened exclusively to 2pac), like his album from last year it manages to draw laser precise lines linking basic channel to juan atkins to wolfgang voigt to derrick may. it's hardly an original sounds, just good, solid, dubby techno, plus i'm a sucker for the basic channel sound over club drums. there's also a mix by deep chord which i've yet to hear tho i'm not sure it needs to get any deeper!

Apparently she got a Single of the Week in the NME in 1982 or something, and recently has made video game soundtracks.

Just seeing off Amerie's "Take Control" and Rod Thomas "Your Love Is A Tease", my Track Of The Week is Cocorosie's "You Wanna Fuck Me", which is the re-working of Akon's "I Wanna Love You" which knocked me out when they played Nottingham a few days ago.

"You see me trying to smile up on this pole, but I'm just hiding the pain that’s deep in my soul. You wanna fuck me, I already know. You wanna fuck me, and toss me back on the floor."

Massive Kudos to anyone who can find me a decent quality MP3 of this song.

they're most often romanicized as 'Bandaly Family' -- once I figured that out, Google started coming through: http://www.morrisclub.ch/music/lbartist/bandaly.html

the studio version is taken at a much slower tempo, & without the shift into partridge family overdrive. for iPod listening I just use my rip of the youtube version, I even like the lo-fi sound

there's a few more Bandaly/Bendaly clips on youtube now

― Milton Parker, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 00:00 (eighteen years ago)

My track of the week would have to be Giorgio Moroder's "I'm Left, You're Right, She's Gone", near the end of From Here to Eternity. I love his dance tracks that are just a little too slow to dance to.

I am quite enjoying "The Con" by Tegan and Sara, after some disappointment with the darker, less propulsive with the other tracks I've hear from the new album. The girls seem to have toned down the squealy voices that put me off them initially (upon hearing So Jealous). I think what sucked me in was the whirly synth solo that sounds straight out of a cheesy Utopia song from 1982 or something.

― mitya, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 14:08 (eighteen years ago)

This happens to me a lot, getting stuck on someone's myspace page but I am totally stricken with

I have a couple:

Sniff and Tears - Driver's Seat
This was mentioned on a thread and it appeared on a compilation I happened to have but hadn't heard this one. Played it the other night while DJing and had three people ask me what it was. By the end, I knew it was a classic. Great Power Pop stuff.

Apples In Stereo - Can You Feel It?
I played this too. It's unabashedly cheesy, feel-good stuff with a wicked vocodered dropout and a really funny ending.

Talking Heads - Blind
It's off of Naked, which I assumed was going to be bollock s but is actually fucking cool.

I can't decide on just one:

Flat Duo Jets - Old Soul
(pretty unremarkable psychobilly song if it wasn't so much fun in its simple spasticity)

Iron and Wine - Flightless Bird, American Mouth
(A sort of spiritual brother to Animal Collective's "Prospect Hummer". Really pretty closer to a really good album).

Spoon - Sister Jack
('Ga x5' may be their best album yet but it got me back into Gimme Fiction and this track is great. I especially like the bit about a "Drop-D Metal band called Requiem" and the coda which sounds all disjointed and uneven as if an extra beat's been stuck in somewhere).

my favorite song of the week is "By Blood" by Isole. Swedish epic doom metal. What can I say, it speaks to me. you can hear it on their myspace:

it doesn't sound COMPLETELY horrible on myspace. but it sounds like myspace. it's my-fidelity. just so you know. i can't do anything about that.

Le Grand Orchestre Du Splendid - Macao

Weird French cabaret gangster-reggae. If anyone can get the b-side "Jaime Les Bananes" on digital format, I'd love that. They're an excellent band, who the only English-speaking counterparts I can think of are the Bonzo Dog Band, but not really.

Scrolling down, it looks like I found out about so much music ITT.

Still trying to track down a decent quality version of the Bendaly / Bandali Family's 'Do You Love Me'

four years pass...

just came here to post exactly the same message as I did back in 2014. Anyone got a reasonable quality version of Bendaly Family - Do You Love Me?
