You live for the evening because it's the best part of the day

Lately, I've been receiving e-mails from reps with mp3 attachments ; songs that they think I might be interested in, and I assume, would want to remark about here. I love that idea. I hope it prompts me do this type type typing think more more more more more more.
The other day, DJ dj Dylan send me just such a note (which included "yes two djs don't ask haha") about his recent remix work as Le Castle Vania. New Jade Tree signee's, Snowden, just had their track "Black Eyes" given the remix treatment.

Try it here:
Snowden - Black Eyes (Le Castle Vania Remix)

Even my girlfriend says she likes it...

Another email I got was from Chris Chinchilla (ch ch ch), a founding member of Art Brut (he has since left). His new band, Macaca Mulatta, have just finished up on some demos, including this one:

Macaca Mulatta - Dancing On A Weeknight

One last thing...



Young Knives - Weekends and Bleak Days (Hot Summer)



What a fantastic song. And with this apparent heatwave coming through town, this might be fitting...
