This Is The Birth Of A Very Idea

Erlend Oye (w/ Prefuse 73) “Every Party (Has A Winner And A Loser)” – I adore the keyboard parts on this song, especially the one part that is more rhythmic than the others. I saw Erlend Oye play this song by himself with an acoustic guitar when he opened up for The Rapture and LCD Soundsystem, but it wasn’t anywhere near as great as this album arrangement. This is just about perfect for today’s weather too. (Here in New York, it is dark, and it won’t stop raining.)

Sister Nancy “Bom Bom” – I heard this song for the first time on Kelly’s fill-in for Donna Summer on WFMU from earlier in the week. It was just one of those things, I fell in love with it immediately. I loooooove the echo on her voice, and the bass line is just about perfect.
