Here Is Where We Start and Where We End

posted Wednesday, 7 May 2008

    Everything comes around / bringing us back again / Here is where we start and where we end

     This is what it's all about for me. The other day while digging around the nets I wound up over at the beat oracle and heard this mesmerizing song, a remix of Goldfrapp's "Monster Love" by none other than Spiritualized. It's heavenly. It's wonderful enough to make up for the god-awful original version on Seventh Tree. Yes, my friends, it's that good. In fact, it's what that album could have been--should have been.

    When I discover a song like this, I get an almost electric feeling. I feel an actual thrill and a need to possess it. It's like it strikes a nerve--an actual neuron kind of thing--and until I do something about it it won't stop firing. It's hard to explain. And then I feel incredibly grateful. Which kind of sums up what this whole music thing does for me.

Goldfrapp--"Monster Love (Goldfrapp vs. Spiritualized)" mp3 off Happiness Single (buy)

    Spiritualized is coming out with a new album, too, called Songs in A&E on May 27th. I don't have anything off the new one yet, but here's an oldie that never fails to move me.

Spiritualized--"Anything More" mp3 off Let It Come Down (buy)

thanks for pointing me to this remix! It adds a lovely sonic layer and improves that song so much. (I have been digging The Seventh Tree, for the most part, though.)

cubik--i hope you like the remix half as much as i do! it's a really potent combination--spiritualized and goldfrapp--one i never would have thought of.

nat--i promise not to hold it against you! oh, i kid. i think i was expecting something more from this album and that's why i was so disappointed. maybe it will grow on me. : )


all mp3s are for sampling purposes only. you like it? you buy it. you want me to take it down? let me know. and for the uninitiated, if you wish to listen to a song, click on the little blue arrows and they will stream. if you wish to download, you should right click/save as on the song title. thanks, your host and music lover, mjrc.
