On the back of that awesome M83 remix I posted a few days ago I’ve been getting into its mixer, Udachi, and his vast array of bitchslap your face off-bass tunes. He’s a master of that dirty, rumbling, staggered bass sound, and his music wont hesitate to make you feel 57 varieties of badass.

Some songs just personify the glory of noise. That dirty rumble that will fuck your speakers in every crevice, and leave them feeling like they just paid their dues. I’m an M83 fan anyway, but this remix takes what’s already a stellar track to another level. Bass lines don’t get much better.

When I heard this initially I thought perhaps Wavves had tightened up their style, but it’s actually by a band called The Wicked Awesomes! I love it, anywho. A deliciously lo-fi punk song that drones in all the right places, and has elements of Sonic Youth-riffage thrown in for good measure.

I love these pictures with a passion. I don’t want to try and begin to decipher the meaning behind them, though, as I will end up spouting off a load of cliched bullshit about love being blind, e.t.c., and that ain’t my game. I love just about everything attached to the Surrealist movement in art, because of that intangible, unexplainable quality it has. And the way it distorts and changes opinions from one person to another. There’s something mind-blowing about these pictures that I don’t want to try and explain…
I found this girl on Flickr and found a lot of her work pretty incredible. Like, from the perspective of someone who’s worked with image manipulation and such for a long time, I can pretty confidently say that she’s going an amazing job; there never seems to be a texture or blend out of place, it all comes together very seamlessly.
So rather than barrage you all with a billion tracks a day, I figured I’d just compile everything I’ve enjoyed from the day into one post, then I can give your RSS or twitter feeds a rest and you wont hate me with a passion.

if you’ve watched Mulholland Drive and heard Llorando then you’ll recognize this song. I thought I’d post this as I thought it was a pretty rocking performance, and a nice song.
Again, this was found via the Hype Machine zeitgeist of 2008. Musically it’s nothing too special, but I just love the way this woman talks.
