Monday Morning Music Shuffle - Godard Mix

Tweet #E2TG


Why Godard? Why not Godard? Plus today's mix includes a song which was on the soundtrack of an movie that was a remake of a Godard film...


This year has been incredibly busy and has left little time for reflection. It's been a great year for music - both in terms of great new music from "old" friends and great music from new friends.  I've done a massive overhaul of the Playlist from which the daily mixes are drawn.  As always  I will be adding new music as it comes to me, but I've stocked up the playlist with some of our favorites from 2013 so far...


--> Today's mix begins after the jump:

Pre-Shuffle:

* "Play With Your Toys Pt. 1" by The End Men

*"Ornamental" and "Grey Scale" by Let's Active (for Faye Hunter)

*"Breathless" by X (Jerry Lee Lewis (Otis Blackwell) cover - featured in the 1983 film Breathless which was a remake of a 1960 Jean-Luc Godard film)



Shuffle:

"Double Brahma" by Valued Customer from Kalpa (2013)

More sheer brilliance from these Toronto kids. "live for the present like a kid at christmas speaking in tongues my flow french kisses "

"By My Side" by Aaron and the Spell 

 

 

 

 

 



Some kick ass Philly Soul - check out these guys!

"Stained Glass Window" by Courier from Cathedrals of Color (2013)

 

A recent discovery.  A "big music" alternative band from Austin. 

 

 "Play With Your Toys Pt. II" by The End Men from Play With Your Toys (2013)

We close out today's set of music with Pt. II - we began with Pt. I. How appropriate*

The End Men have both their EP and this album up for Sale on their Bandcamp Page - at Name Your Price.  As always, I encourage you to 1. get this album and 2. as you are able, give generously.  The End Men have pre-announced a big announcement for September 1 and could use your support.   You can go back and read everything I've written about this band and this album.  The remain the number one most frequent tag on Ear to the Ground.
