e009 ("Cowboy Up" decals are silly)




Here's the Wednesday post...as promised.

I don't really know if anyone is following this actually. But if you are, let me know.

I put up a facebook fanpage and blogpage, so just search "minenameis" and join. Why not? I'm not asking for $...yet.


ANYWAY!


The music:

First up, I would like to give you a Kid Cudi track. It's off his 10 Deep mixtape "A Kid Named Cudi" and called "50 Ways to Make a Record." It's the Paul Simon song "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" all Cudi-ed up and a nice take at that. Soothe it.

I'm starting it up slow today. I just got this song off the Delicious Vinyl comp. "RMXXOLOGY." It's Hot Chip remixing The Pharcyde's classic "Passin' Me By." It's basically a completely different take on that song that adds a much darker and depressing tone, but definitely a goodie. Something for a rainy day.

Let's speed things up a bit with ANOTHER REMIX!!!1 Chromeo has been one of my favorite acts for a few years now, and "Fancy Footwork" was one of the best releases of 2007. So, they re-released the album with a handful of remixes and this is one of them. Here is the LIFELIKE remix of "Needy Girl."

Almost finished with today's stuff. Maybe I'll start posting more than 5, but probably not. Here is the next trackz. Tittsworth is cool, if only for his name — which is also his last name. He released a full-length entitled "Twelve Steps." And I haven't been able to get this song off my brain for awhile now. Here is "911 feat. Stimulus."

Now...for the last track. Two white dudes from Colorado who make music that sounds like an Electro version of Three Six Mafia. Yeah...I know. They go by the name 3Oh!3. The song — "Don't Trust Me" — is fun and has a super-catchy chorus. I don't know...I like it. Maybe you will, too.

Well, that's it for today. But look out for Friday's post as well as an old Chromeo interview I did. It was never published, and I just need to transcribe it. It should be interesting.

Until then...
