Foggy Day Mixtape
1. "Machine Gun" - Slowdive
harshly beautiful. this song always makes me want to just melt away
2. "Flying" - The Telescopes
smears of heavenly vocals and burbling guitars
3. "From a Motel 6" - Yo La Tengo
downright hypnagogic
4. "Weeping Willow" - Sebastien Schuller
valleys and peaks of electronic despair
5. "Kim & Jessie" - M83
retro whooshing pop at its finest
6. "Myrrh" - The Church
mystical and otherworldly, and not just because it hails from '80s Australia.
7. "Birthday" - The Sugarcubes
the offkilterest of pop songs. Bjork's voice is at turns intensely earthy and extraterrestrial. I love the drums too.
8. "This Can't Be Today" - The Rain Parade
marvelous twang-and-groove rock...and that impossibly plaintive organ just kills me
9. "Already There" - The Verve
absolutely haunting.
10. "Cherry-Coloured Funk" - Cocteau Twins
so so ethereal - what a cosmic voice!
11. "Pulling Our Weight" - The Radio Dept.
wispy and gently melancholic
12. "Thursday" - Asobi Seksu
a cocoon of sound
13. "Vapour Trail" - Ride
one of my favo(u)rite songs ever! shimmering and heartbreaking. (also supreme for air-drumming to)
14. "Sight of You" - Pale Saints
such a smart sense of melody - a lovelorn gem
15. "Lazarus" - The Boo Radleys
sophisticated, epic pop
16. "Soon" - My Bloody Valentine
disembodied coos and amorphous guitars meet a Madchester-inspired dance beat, general hypnosis ensues
