Round Up : September

September has been slaughtered. Ceremonialize for October!

Top 3 Most Downloaded:
1. Daft Punk - Fragile
2. Kid Cudi - Pursuit Of Happiness Ft. MGMT & Ratatat
3. Au Revoir Simone - Another Likely Story (Aeroplane Remix)/Midnight Juggernauts - This New Technology

Commentary:
1. Yep, knew this one would be the most downloaded track, and it's kinda obvious why. Three words. New. Daft. Punk.
2. Kid Cudi, MGMT, Ratatat. Everyone loves them. Personally though, I dislike all of them. That's right, Ratatat too, you mindless hipster sheep.
3. Au Revoir Simone and Aeroplane? Sounds like another Paris (Aeroplane Remix) to me. And yup, it gets pretty close. While This New Technology is not as good as Tombstone, this could well feature on their next album. Or on a new special edition of their first. Sounds Dystopia-esque enough for me.

Top 3 Most Underappreciated:
1. The Secret Handshake - Summer of '98 (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)
2. Lost Valentinos - In The City Of Gold
3. Jack Beats - What (Foamo Re-Edit)

Commentary:
1. 1:15 has a The Secret Handshake vibe going on. Did you like the non cocaine-induced part of Romborama, i.e. Second Streets Have No Name? If so, get this song. Now.
2. Lost Valentinos. Doesn't their name sell this song? Okay, I'll try to sell it then. Soaring, searing, psychedelic, tripped out Indie, with a hint of Electro.
3. True to club-oriented music, this drops at 1:00. Quite hectic. Don't worry if it's dubstep, it's decent dubstep. Hmm, speaking of Dubstep...

Bonus For Rarchesters:

Count & Sinden - Beeper (Fake Blood Remix)
The Bloody Beetroots - It's Better A DJ On 2 Turntables

True or False: Fake Blood and The Bloody Beetroots have both made Dubstep.
True. Check it out, 3:29 and 0:51 respectively.

Maybe they could join up and become a new and exciting Dubstep artist called The Fake Bloody Beetroots? No? Just wondering.
