Eclectic Mainline 24th October 2012

I had no show last week due to 11 local men trying to chase a leather ball past 11 non-locals, who were simultaneously trying to chase the same ball the other way. BCB decided this was an event worth commentating on.  Consequently, I have a backlog of tunes I want to play you.  I squeezed 15 in this week, including this gorgeous Nicholas Jaar remix of Cherokee by Cat Power:

 

I could quite happily have played one of the two 20-minute tracks from the new Godspeed You! Black Emperor album, but not wanting to leave too many other artists out of the show, settled for one of the shorter tunes.  I would highly recommend you listen to the entire album though, as it is quite brilliant:

 

If you are inclined to listen back to tonight’s show, you’ll find it over here. Here is what I played:

Alabama Shakes – “I Found You”
Ty Segall – “Who Are You?” (LP – “Twins”) (Drag City)
Darkstar – “Timeway” (single) (Warp)
Cat Power – “Cherokee (Nicholas Jaar Remix)” (Matador)
