I know it's probably not cool at all to choose to do 8 for '08. But fuck it. I really wanted to do this end of year list simply for myself, just to make me think for a bit at 3am in the morning. Plus I like making lists.
8. Black Kids - Boyfriend (The Twelves Mix) [mp3]
Awesome, upbeat mix from the duo from Rio. (I just realised I don't even have this song on my new computer, lol)
7. MGMT - Kids (Soulwax Remix)
Yeah it was everywhere towards the end of year and got kind of tiring. But the first time I heard that song I craved it. It was in my head for weeks, and still there to be honest.
6. Mystery Jets - Half in Love With Elizabeth
Everyone went mad for the Foamo remix, it was good, just not as good as the original. I mean, if Erol Alkan produces your album it's guaranteed to have every song incredible, and they were.
5. Foals - Red Socks Pugie
Geniuses (inc. Dave Sitek).
4. Santogold - I'm a Lady (Diplo Mix ft. Amanda Blank)
Really well worked as always from Diplo. The Top Ranking make over of Santogold's album was something really special.
3. Kings of Leon - Use Somebody (Dolby Anol edit)
Anthemic.
2. The Black Ghosts - Any Way (Fake Blood remix) [mp3]
Theo Keating is boss.
1. The Killers - Human
I think this is in the top 5 songs that have ever grazed these 17 year old ears.
