Follow Follow [a Consulting Detectives fanmix]
Full album art, tracklistings, and download links under the cut.
So once again I'm doing the mini-fanmix meme over on tumblr where I've been taking requests for mixes (there is still time to pop over there if you have one!).
The sixth of this round of mini-mixes was requested by katasstrophee, who asked for a 'Joan and Sherlock being boss consulting detectives' mix and I was more than happy to fill such a request!

Follow Follow
a Consulting Detectives fanmix
1. Tunng - Follow Follow
Through smoke and slight of hand
He does what he can
He gets on by on his own
2. Andrew Bird - See The Enemy [Anonanimal Demo]
The seemingly innocuous plecostomus
Though posthumous
They talk to us
They talk too much
3. Vitamin String Quartet - Safe and Sound
[Instrumental]
4. Dark Dark Dark - All The Things
Your mouth is open
You're telling me things you wanted to say, oh
Songs you've never known, oh
Stories you've never told
5. Bibio - Abrasion
I like to see
The stone steps rounded
And bowed by a billion scuffing soles
And dirt paths cutting corners
The evidence of abrasion
On a wall behind a chair
That has recorded every end of working day
The fumble-marks around a keyhole
And wedding ring scratches on a rail
6. Nouvelle Vague - Our Lips Are Sealed
There's a weapon
We must use
In our defense
Silence
7. Ian Cooke - Fortitude [Daytrotter Version]
You aren’t a failure if you fall off of your horse
No need to beat yourself up, you know
Don’t get incapacitated with remorse
Get on up, shake it off, pick up where you left off and go
Make haste and get yourself resettled in the saddle
Too long a respite will destroy any progress you have made
Pace, pedal, pump or paddle
Atrophy is tricky to evade
8. Zoë Keating - Optimist
[Instrumental]
9. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah! - Me and You, Watson [Live]
The sound of the fog horn
It tears me from my sleep
I'm much too tired for the waking
But too wired for the sheep
And the anvil's on the table
And the sword is on the door
Now it's time to pick up bread crumbs
That you spilled upon the floor
Let's go!
Me and you, Watson
10. We Are Scientists - Rules Don’t Stop
Although it may seem unconventional sometimes
Indiscretion is worth a try
If you just play along I promise we'll be fine
11. Tunng - Secrets
Tell me frankly, tell me again
What you told me out on the street
12. Andrew Bird - Not A Robot, But A Ghost
I run the numbers through the floor
Here’s how it goes: I crack the codes
I crack the codes, you end the war
13. Ellie Goulding - In My City
And that’s where I’ll stay
In my city
14. High Highs - A Real Hero
Where warmer than, his head so cool
In that tight bind knew what to do
And you have proved to be
A real human being and a real hero
BONUS TRACK:
Thompson Twins - We Are Detective
We are detective, we are select
We are detective, come to collect
