1. Brunchin Mesclum (Original Mix) – Jobb – Percusa. One of the first electronic albums I bought was St. Germain’s Tourist. This track takes me to a similar place.
.
2. Roswell (Original Mix) – Dualton – Vivid. I have nothing insightful or descriptive to say about this one. I like it – end of story.
.
3. Questions (Original Mix) – Maik Loewen – Niveous Records. This is a great track on a great album. The combination of the claps and that single strummed chord are great, and then the beat comes in – money.
.
4. Bulgaria (Original Mix) – Nick Curly – Cécille. I’ve been looking forward to 1.3 for some time, and the bass in Bulgaria alone made it worth the wait. If this doesn’t make you want to dance, I don’t know what will.
.
5. Hit Em Where It Hurts (Original Mix) – DJ Sneak – Robsoul. Speaking of bass….
.
6. Wide Awake (Original Mix) – Solab – Fortek. Can you use the adage broken record on an electronic music blog? The bass is great in this one too – and then some synths come after you… (Not the evildoing kind)
.
7. Within You (Rob Glennon’s Night Freak Version) – Mark O’Sullivan – Nice & Nasty. Speaking of synths, this track comes from one of a few recent Mark O’Sullivan records, in which they are used to great extent without getting at all banal.
.
8. To Be (Original MIx) – Little Nancy – Cosmo Deep Records. Little Nancy gets a little nasty on this one. There is just enough of an electro grind to make it that right kind of dirty.
.
9. Torque (Murat Kilic Remix) – Felix Nagorsky – SUBSONIC MUSIC. Torgue brings it back a little towards St. Germain territoy, but then get’s techy.
.
10. Futurama (Original Mix) - Gregorhythme – Cityfox. There are parts of Futurama that I wouldn’t call whimsical, but they’re not too far off. Still a very danceable track.
