indie dj tunes

sweetie

I'm doing a fairly big gig in a couple of weeks and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for great tunes I may have misssed over the last year or so. I know my sig says I should know already but there's always the chance I've missed something. Thanks in advance

Yay I agree!!

Metric (although not new) have some wicked songs - Succexy, Wet Blanket, Poster of a Girl and Monster Hospital (to name a few).

A little slower & folkier but still super cool is Feist - I Feel it All, My Moon My Man and 1234.

Anything by Hot Hot Heat.

sweetie

some of my own faves are:

quannam - i changed my mind
bobby conn - never get ahead
delakota - c'mon cincinatti
sons of silence - bobby dazzler
rapture - jealous lovers
pavement - cut your hair
chromeo - rage
primal scream - some velvet morning
hot hot heat - bandages
phoenix - too young
boo radleys - lazarus
wiseguys - causing a commotion

Makaveli

Lyrics Born & The Poets of Rhythm - I Changed My Mind. Quannum is the record label and Quannum Spectrum is the album.

sweetie

i thought it was quannam project but anyhoo it's a great track. just heard it again recently used on entourage. incidentally the entourage them tune is a great tune too; jane's addiction - superhero

the hero game

sweetie do u play regularly anywhere? - great choices in yr fav list.. (jesus i would love to hear 'lazarus' out somewhere..)

my suggestions
the notwist - one with the freaks - it'll blow her socks off..
or anything by 50 foot wave.. or anything off 'horsedrawn wishes' by rollerskate skinny

the hero game

lordgoat

Candence Weapon - Nervous tic motion of the head (cover)

Not really playing anywhere regular now. I fill in the odd time in Whelans or Eamonn Dorans. There's better money in one off gigs and weddings to be honest. Although most weddings tend not to want much alternative stuff.
The gig was great, dancefloor got plenty of use. Lazarus got a run out too

I loved the neon golden album by notwist so i'll check that out. Not heard of
50 ft wave so that's on my list now too.

cheers

the hero game

sweetie
50 foot wave is Kristin Hersh's current band and their self-titled EP is just scorchin'.. the follow-up LP is great too but the EP is just magic - the riffs are fast and ripping and kristin sounds like she's 18 again!.. and 'neon golden' is amazing yeah, i haven't heard any of their other albums tho'..
it'd be cool if u could let me know when ur playin' a club again.. i just never hear good music out anywhere..
