best of ’10

Looks like we've made it through another year at the office....time to nerd out, here's my fav songs of the year.

1. The Avett Brothers - Laundry Room - A technical 2009 release; it was tough to pick just one song from this album.  Laundry Room has some amazing lyrics (tonight I'll burn the lyrics, cuz every chorus was your name), and a ho-down ending that just barely edged ahead of I and Love and You.

2. The Gaslight Anthem - Bring it On - Another great album full of dandies.  I had a new favourite song from this album almost every week, but this one was the first.

3. Gorillaz - On Melancholy Hill - A perfect spacey dance beat.

4. Aloe Blacc - Femme Fatale - I was always a huge Velvet Underground fan, but never really liked this song.  Well done Aloe.

5 . The Black Keys - Everlasting Light - Another song from an album packed with great songs,  I could've picked any of them.

New Girl Talk

girl talk all day New Girl TalkMaster of Mash-up Gregg Gillis, better known as Girl Talk, is back at it with his new album, All Day. As usual he jukes a bunch of samples and throws them all into a colossal mix that for some reason doesn't land him in hot water with the RIAA.
On top of sampling everyone from Black Sabbath to Rick Ross without paying them a penny, he just gives his albums out for free. I guess thats probably one reason he doesn't get sued; there is no profit from his(?) music.

Download the album for free
Check the samples he used to make it
