1. Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
2. Big Boi - Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty
3. The National - High Violet
4. Crystal Castles - Self Titled (2010)

Victor9000's Top Songs of 2010
Download here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/w1196l

1. Big Boi - Shutterbug
The best song of 2010 featured Big Boi at the height of his lyrical power over a hook that made soul music proud, but the true star of this cut is the vocoder providing that “buh-buh-buhbuhbuh” sound that vibrates so nice in your ear.
2. Crystal Castles (ft. Robert Smith) - Not in Love
What was a solid track on the album gets elevated by the sonic ancestor to Crystal Castles, Robert Smith. He’s the best person in the world to sing the word “fascination” and his refrain over the climatic section is musical nirvana. If only they would team up for a whole album…
3. Fang Island - Careful Crossers
The guitars on this track launch like a clarion call to assemble at the town square for the good of all things rock, then the melody says “I’m glad you’ve joined us. We are here to do one thing, and it will not be easy, but it is worth doing.” By the time the song climaxes, you’ve signed up for the rock Marines, and you’re wearing camo face paint, blazing away at the forces of boring like Jesse Ventura when he sees the Predator.
4. The Knife - Colouring of Pigeons
Taken from an opera about the theory of evolution, this cut is seductive in a primal, Koyaanisqatsi kinda way. It sounds like the lovechild of the years 1911 and 2549, layering textures and suggestions on top of one another until you’ve lost any sense of what you were doing before.
5. Kanye West - All of the Lights
Rihanna scores again by joining this anthem, and neither Kanye’s subpar lyrics and flow nor Fergie’s embarrassing verse can stop the infectious joy generated by that sick monotone drumline. And I think that’s Elton John going “I tried to tell you, but all I could say is…” at the end - how crazy is that?
6. Keepaway - Yellow Wings
It’s like the side of Animal Collective that believes in melodies.
7. Caribou - Odessa
People don’t use the expression “funky fresh” anymore. This song made that phrase pop back into my head. Best use of the triangle in 2010.
8. Beach House - Norway
A great work in the dream pop genre - the song sounds like both the name of the band and the song title. It’s like a lullaby for adults.
9. Antoine Dodson & The Gregory Brothers - Bed Intruder Song
If you don’t know about this song, you really missed out on a whole lot of internet in 2010. I recommend you begin reading Greg Rutter’s whatevs.net immediately.
10. Cee-Lo - Fuck You
It’s like Cee-Lo is a method actor playing a 1978 soul musician, but who’s all, “We can swear in pop songs now? Cool.”
11. Gauntlet Hair - I Was Thinking…
Points awarded for: best band name of 2010; epic echo effect; great-sounding indecipherable lyrics; an ellipsis in the title.
12. James Blake - CMYK
It’s a jam. Trust me.
13. Tanlines - Real Life
This is my sleeper hit of the year, and even though I’m a sucker for big synths, I’m pretty sure you’ll have trouble not liking it.
14. Peter Gabriel - My Body is a Cage
From an album of surprising covers, this track stands out. Gabriel’s voice has gone all Johnny Cash from “Hurt” and that gem is a perfect analogy to this aging crooner’s lament, which tops the Arcade Fire original in my book. Stay tuned for the strings - they’re remarkable.
15. Mavis Staples - You Are Not Alone
The best Wilco song of the year.
16. Sleigh Bells - Crown on the Ground
Sleigh Bells were the stripped down rock equivalent to Kanye’s indulgence in 2010. Singsongy, in your face, popping up in NFL stadiums for montages - while who knows how it’ll sound in five years, when it dropped, this was the sound of the moment.
17. Zack Demsey - Mind Heist (Inception Trailer)
The greatest bum trick in 2010 cinema was the omission of this perfectly evocative piece of film scoring from the actual movie Inception, after it positively dominated the trailer.
18. Janelle Monae - Tightrope
The album was like a sequel to Andre 3000’s The Love Below, and that’s high praise. It’s classy, creative and sounds like a perfect smirk.
19. Wild Nothing - Chinatown
2010 was a great year for dream pop - there’s a sonic and thematic connection between this music and 1980s new wave that makes me picture it playing in the background of Dream a Little Dream.
20. Delorean - Stay Close
You are now a fan of dream pop. I’m not subtle. Also, how bout that band name?
21. Yeasayer - Ambling Arp
All these guys do is drum hard and make great music.
22. Crystal Castles - Year of Silence
The Castles mix in some Sigur Ros vocals to provide an ethereal complement to their earthy 8-bit composition, and we end up the winners.
23. Ready For The World - How to Dress Well
I wasn’t kidding about the dream pop. It’s great.
24. Kanye West (ft. Nikki Minaj) - Monster
This song features the best verse on the whole album, and it’s by Ms. Minaj, over a positively evil beat for which Yeezy duly gets credit. But really, that verse is like a great film, with compelling characters, dramatic staging, action sequences and a satisfying conclusion (sorry for the clean version).
25. Nas & Damian Marley - As We Enter
This collaboration is very neat. As is the song.
26. Hoodie Allen - You Are Not A Robot
These guys will be huge in 2011, like Gorillaz-big. Maybe as big as wearing hoodies.
27. Das Racist - Chicken & Meat
And the award for best new subgenre of hip-hop goes to Das Racist for their Hype-Nerd-Core-Post-PC-Harold-and-Kumar-Colbert-Wellesley-Rap. Also, their name is based on an internet meme.
28. Arcade Fire - Rococo
While Arcade Fire has lost me over the years, this song reminded me of my initial regard for the band’s command of intimate-feeling rocksplosions.
29. The National - Afraid of Everyone
The second most important band in the world delivered a gem of an album in 2010, but with nary a bona fide single on it. Yet this cut captures the band’s ability to work through a very modern dread with melodies and lyrics that unravel the fear by staring at it and making art.
30. Kanye West - Power
In the future, 30 second montages of the 2010-2019 decade will feature three seconds of this song standing in for 2010.

Rusko - “Woo Boost”

2010-03-17T19:12:00.001-04:00

Santigold - "Please Don't"

2010-03-17T19:10:00.001-04:00

Here’s the video for the Santigold track “Please Don’t.” We did a photo session for a magazine the other day, and I told the interviewer that on this song, by the time you get to the chorus, she owns it — she’s turned it into a Santigold song. Perfect.

There are six of these videos that have been completed for this project. Most, like this one, use news and archival footage to, well, show that every word of the song is true! Most of the lyrics on this one are lifted gently from interviews and quotations — the “please don’t” chorus especially. At some point as first lady, Imelda began to feel that she could help Philippine interests by charming world leaders into seeing things her way. “Handbag diplomacy” she called it — as she liked to imply that to solve a problem, she could bypass President Marcos and just grab a handbag and hop on a plane with some of her assistants. It sometimes worked! There was, for example, an Islamic-backed insurgency rising in the south of the Philippine archipelago, and she thought that a leader in that part of the world, Qaddafi in this case, might help pull the plug on that support if he saw things her way. Apparently he did — the funding stopped and the insurrection lost momentum, and she later described him as a pushover, a mama’s boy.

Exiled in the Land of the Free

2010-03-07T12:59:00.003-05:00

An ex-Columbia Records A&R guy just released this shelved 1995 benefit album for Leonard Peltier, a Native American man convicted of killing two FBI agents. The case and story are interesting, but the tracklist (Unreleased material from Rage Against the Machine and the Beasties) is just as intriguing–like a hot little mid 90's time capsule.

Rob Roy - "Fur In My Cap"

2010-02-25T19:39:00.002-05:00

Not the greatest music video of all time, but it's a pretty catchy track.

Whatevs' Best Of 2009

2009-12-29T22:08:00.002-05:00

Here are all my (Whatevs) favorite songs from the final year of the aughts. At first I didn't think this was a particularly watershed year for music but after trolling through my iTunes I've settled on 39 songs that really stood out to me, and I think I've changed my initial assessment.

The order is a little crazy but I chose it to specifically call attention to each track, so there's a pretty big tonality disparity between each track. It's not a mixtape. It's a bunch of songs that are pretty different from one another. There's some rock, some R&B, some rock, some hip-hop, some rock, some alt-country, and ten other kinds of rock.

Hope you enjoy.

Reverse Engineering "Smack My Bitch Up"

2009-12-24T18:12:00.002-05:00

They should do this with every song ever. Did you have any idea "Bulls On Parade" was sampled in this song?

Deathface

Passion Pit – Little Secrets

2009-11-17T16:47:00.002-05:00

The latest video from Passion Pit is very . . . what's the word I'm looking for . . . Trony.

Passion Pit's "Little Secrets" (sorry embedding was turned off because apparently they didn't realize it's 2009).

Ninjasonik Video

2009-11-04T17:23:00.004-05:00

Nicholas Chatfield-Taylor--friend of the people, dear compatriot of the Hemen--teamed up with Ninjasonik to produce this video for the group's remix of Matt & Kim's Daylight. Very cute (in a str8 hipster/gangsta way).

Nick also directed Yea Yeah. He a genius.

DOJ Best of Jay-Z Mix

2009-10-27T23:57:00.003-04:00

DJ Ayres curates a Sir Hova Best Of , which does NOT include: "#1 singles you’ve heard a million times, lazy one-take flows, lyrics about inventing the button-down shirt, songs dissing rappers who would later be signed to Jay-Z’s label, and songs produced by Eminem."

Dope

2009-10-12T23:56:00.003-04:00

No one takes it back to the ol' school quite like the Meaning of Dope. I don't quite remember how I stumbled upon this site, but it's like memory lane if memory lane were an infinite gold rope.

Design Nerdz

2009-09-25T22:44:00.003-04:00

Is there something inherently–almost unforgivably–buzzkillish about graphically representing the data within music and song? Of course. But it sure is pretty when Jax de Leon does it.

P.i.X.

2009-09-25T21:45:00.002-04:00

London DJ Hanna Hanra runs this quality music zine, P.i.X. with another DJ, Princess Julia (who was in the Visage "Fade to Grey" video for chrissakes). The zine's hot to death. While you may only enjoy the "free" part of their "It's Free and It's a Poster" slogan online, you won't be sorry.

Onward and Upward with the Supervillain

2009-09-18T22:00:00.002-04:00

MF Doom in the new New Yorker. Surely worth the price of subscription.

Blakroc Project

2009-09-18T20:20:00.001-04:00

Every once in a while, a new record makes it exciting and acceptable to be an adult who listens to contemporary Hip-Hop. It looks like this will be 2009's excuse to celebrate. (Yes, that's Dame Dash talking to the Black Keys.)

He Men: Never on schedule, always on time.

We decided to take on a different course for this podcast. Rather than put together the latest and greatest tracks in the world, we decided instead to choose only tracks put out before 1990. We dug deep into our archives and found classics that might have been overlooked or not enjoyed enough. So without further ado here are the pre-1990s.

Hype Machine's 2008 Zeitgeist

If you've ever wondered how to get your digital hands on some free MP3s then you're probably not reading this blog right now. And if that's the case, I'd like you to listen to the sound of this one hand clapping and let me know about a tree that's falling in the woods with no one around to hear it.

But if you are here and you have gotten your digi-hands on some free MP3s you've no doubt used The Hype Machine. You probably already know what a fantastic resource it is and what a great judge of new music the informed and interesting masses are.

The Walkmen's new album "leaks"

2008-08-05T11:33:00.004-04:00

Alright I'm not sure if this counts as a proper leak because it's being sold, but I thought it was worth bringing it to everyone's attention anyway.

Everyone's favorite "indie" band is getting ready to release their new album called "You And Me" on August 19th. If you're feeling charitable though you can enjoy it before everyone (or at least someone).

For just $5 you can buy it off Amie Street. The release is part of Amie Street’s “Download to Make a Difference” initiative, and the money goes to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in honor of Luca Vasallo, an 8-month-old who’s struggling with leukemia.

Sounds like a win-win situation for everyone. You get to hear the album that you'll hear a million times in every movie for the next year, and some 8-year-old won't have cancer coursing through their blood.

Dingers!

Thunderheist - Jerk It

2008-07-01T08:02:00.003-04:00

I've been going back and forth for the last few days trying to decide whether I should sit on this and save it for an up coming podcast and blow the living fuck out of everyone's mind. After some deep He-searching I decided that it wasn't right (and that it wouldn't fit with the upcoming theme).

Plus the video is pretty great and is one of three finalists for the video (clearly the best).

So with no futher ado, I give you Thunderheist's track "Jerk It". Prepare for a mind 'esplosion.

Indian Thriller

This is what was giving Twoir the fits yesterday. Turns out that it is his machine, not the tubes.

New Crush

2008-06-24T13:25:00.002-04:00

Start with one part Feist, add a dash of Junior Boys, and a touch of Ingmar Bergman - stir until delicious. To kick it up for special occasions, plate it with a side of classic New York hip-hop.

Have you left no sense of decency?

2008-06-19T18:27:00.002-04:00

Grrrr....
Between when I embedded the code and when I previewed the post, YouTube yanked the video. It was that crazy Indian Thriller remake.
Just wanted to say a little something in response.
Fuck. YouTube. Their quality is shit, it's extremely difficult to filter through the garbage that's up there without directly searching for one thing, and for the past few weeks now, about 92% of videos are removed posthaste. I smell a rat. A rat that is in fact a code. A code that kills videos once they are embedded in more than 15 locations. It is teh suck.
Fuck. YouTube.

Research anyone?

Awful news here.

It looks like there truly is justice in this world.

I, for one, eagerly await Trapped In The Closet chapters 23-700. I also eagerly await taking advantage of the precedent that this has set for the justice world. He truly is a hero to all of us.

Thao video

This seems really stupid at the beginning, but the song is tight and wait until the animated lightening starts shoot out of everything.

Big Ideas: Don't Get Any

2008-06-10T09:22:00.003-04:00

Following up from what Victor9000 posted earlier, this is an entry (the winning entry?) from a contest to remix the song "Nude" by Radiohead. It's made entirely from antiquated electronic equipment.

This sort of reminds me of that time that I made love to 24 virgins at the same time. No seriously, all 24 at the same time. It was a magical experience. It's not that this video plays some role in that memory it's just that most everything reminds me of that.

Big Ideas (don't get any).

"This was quite a difficult task for everybody that entered, as Nude is in 6/8 timing, and 63bpm. Most music that's played in clubs is around 120bpm and usually 4/4 timing. It's pretty difficult to seamlessly mix a waltz beat into a DJ set.

"This resulted in lots of generic entries consisting of a typical 4/4 beat, but with arbitrary clips from "Nude" thrown in so that they qualified for the contest."

Radiohead - All I Need Video

2008-06-10T08:44:00.003-04:00

This is a few weeks late, but I wanted to post it because it's the first time in a few years that I've enjoyed a politically-motivated rock video. Most political statements by musicians are a bit too close to P. Did's suggestion that you "VOTE OR DIE!!!!" for me to take them seriously, and while this video isn't recreating the wheel, it's quietly powerful and leaves room to reflect on the imagery.

The BPA (Brighton Port Authority)

2008-06-09T18:08:00.002-04:00

Don't know a ton about this group, but apparently it's some new venture from Fatboy Slim and Simon Thornton. This is their second single called "Toe Jam" which is a pretty fun little track and features David Byrne. Their music video is even more fun (NSFW while being completely SFW at the same time)

Fugazi's "Waiting Room" - Blue Ribbon Glee Club

If any of you have Comcast, "American Hardcore" is free On Demand. It's pretty great, equal parts seductive and repellent. Sadly, no Fugazi (they're "post-hardcore" according to my cool older wikibrother).

Ladytron

2008-04-21T18:19:00.003-04:00

Ladytron needs to thank the shit out of their publicist because they're doing an amazing job. The album doesn't drop until June 3rd, but the free MP3 they're giving out is everywhere. I'm sure it doesn't hurt that the track is great, but seriously Ladytron, start thanking your publicist.
