here’s another track that’s been on my radar for a while: the warbly, woozy casio melody in this track popped into my head last night, and i feel like it came to me in a dream. it also was the perfect song to fall asleep to (although it’s too short to actually fall asleep to, so maybe a pre-sleep wooze-jam). it’s a bit like indie j dilla.

this song was stored in my subconscious since i heard it on the salem mix that made the rounds a few months ago. finally, after 48 hours of racking my brain and my music library, i remembered where i got it from. the salem mix is one of the most abrasive/skull-piercing things i’ve ever heard, and almost all the tracks on it are ridiculously hard to track down. these guys especially seem to bask in mystery: on myspace, you can’t add them as a friend unless you know them by “last name” (??). whatever. as noted just a few posts back, it doesn’t really matter. cause jesus be damned, i’m rocking this tune hard right now.
