The Fireman - Light From Your Lighthouse
The Fireman is a collaborative project by Paul McCartney and Youth. “Electric Arguments”, their new album, is a major departure from their older, mostly electronic work. More importantly, it puts any of McCartney’s recent solo work to absolute shame. This track is one of my favorites from the album, but I recommend checking it out in its entirety. The fact that this the only Beatles-esque number on the entire thing is a testament to the enormous amount of ground this album covers.
Oh, Mom.
A little something to help you get by on this rainy day.

An old loop from many years ago that I want to integrate into something I’m doing now.

Stereolab - French Disco
This is a previously rare version of the track “French Disko”. I prefer it to the aforementioned version for a number of reasons.
- It is about a minute longer.
- The tempo is a little faster.
- The drums are a little dirtier.
- The chorus is far more more intense.
- The organ that closes the track is amazing.
This track easily qualifies as one of my favorite tracks of all time.
Twin Troubles
I have two identical Macbook Pros. I took the wrong one to work today. The worst part is that I remember placing them next to each other last night (something I never do) and thinking, “Man, I hope that doesn’t cause any problems tomorrow.”
