DEAF takes place once again next week and this year sees its most accessible and interesting line-up. There are a host of promoters involved from !Kaboogie to Choice Cuts to Note to Foggy Notions to Maximum Joy to Nightflight and on and on. A real all-inclusive list.

Trans Am plus guests Prostitute, Oct 24, The Village
M83 plus guests Channel One and The Domino State, Oct 24, Vicar St.
All you’ve got to do is leave a comment with the title (and link if possible) to a song you can’t stop playing and why. Do tell which show you’d prefer also. Comment lines closed on the 21st October.

turnstle blues by autolux – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YPSlTmMcUg
the drum beat is so catchy!
M83 would be brilliant
Hmm just one tune? Still have Juana Molina’s Un Dia going through my head after her gig last week but has been replaced sometimes with Pattern Is Movement’s Right Away…different sort of live version of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfMxlbEoJcI
M83 as well!
My brother turned me onto this modeselektor remix of bjork & anthonys ‘dull flame of desire’ last week & i’ve been wearin it out since!

Times New Viking vs Yo La Tengo
The 2nd last song off TNV’s rip it off, a no frills blast of scuzzy fun in anticipation of tonight’s gig – shame it looks like TNV will be first on but it should still be a deadly night: http://hypem.com/track/578116/Times+New+Viking-Times+New+Viking+Vs.+Yo+La+Tengo
That or anything by Beyond The Wizard’s Sleeve, Erol Alkans 60’s psych throwback…
Buttons – by Sia off her new album….
Mainly cos it was the interesting opening song of her gig the other night (loving the flouro outfits!), but also cos its just really catchy. And it reminds me of it being the weekend
M83 please….
Telling like it was and still should be. M83 would be savage

Robert Wyatt & Bertrand Bergalat – This Summer Night
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmH3_TbfHaA
…maybe its the sense of longing for the lack of summer we had – but can’t shake this song at the moment.
M83!!
We Carry On, track 6 on Portishead’s last album. Amazing pounding sci-fi rock, best track on their best album imho!
Trans AM would be groovey!!

Boards of Canada “Dayvan Cowboy” on account of its absolute jaw-dropping awesomeness.
Not fussy which gig.
Channel one as well been a long time since they’ve released anything…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYqwYrbwHeM Plastic Jesus sung by Paul Newman

Paul Newman passed away recently, I watched ‘Cool hand Luke’, he plays this little timeless folk song.
Black is the Bird – One Day International

Perfect music for Autumn days
Also – Captain Beefheart – Autumn’s Child..no link i’m afraid..
M83, thanks.
‘Left For Dead’
By Hunter-Gatherer
A fine track from the Dublin-based electronica artist. Each new layer is so subtly introduced and lovely. Plus you can’t beat a rolling thunder intro.
M83 would be great, thanks
At the moment it’s Cut Copy – Out There On The Ice. It makes dance whilst sitting down on the train to college. This gets me funny looks. The people man, they just don’t understand
Oh and M83 if possible please!
Four Tet – Smile Around The Face
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LY4VbtaoKW0
Why? The song, the video, sexy bus stunt scene
Trans Am > ftw.
Unless a helicopter can be organised I’m not in the running for tickets but for what it’s worth I’m all about Jokers “Gully Brook Lane” just now.
an amazing g-funk influenced zombie monster of a track.

‘left for dead’- Hunter-Gatherer
i’ve listened to it maybe 50 times this week!brilliant tune for lifting your spirits on a cold wet august mornin.
M83 would be lovely..please
At the moment it would have to be Dance for Dale by flying lotus.
http://www.timanderic.com/2008/09/dancefloor-dale.html#eric
Its a mellow feel good tune. The video is a poignant reminder of why we all go clubbing at night
Hunter Gatherer tune is lovely.
Only started listening to this after reading some australian news stories online, so guy is probably being hyped up a lot there. But his voice is really haunting

trans am for me pleassseee
well, the obvious choice is everyone’s flavour of the month right now – ‘sleepyhead’ by passion pit. but at this time of night it’s hard to beat lee “scratch” perry’s ‘hold of death’. m83 would be sweet thanks.
gwan the media player!

Smell Memory – Múm! 9:22 mins of bliss and 8-bit bits
M83 would be lovely!
Me likey Beach Party by Air France, it’s so mother flippin purty and listening to it actually raises your body temperature by 0.04 degrees c, which is nice.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLEHMxXa7fA

Joe lean and the jing jang jong, ‘Where do you go’. One of the best most uplifting intros I’ve heard in a long time.
I’d be more than happy with either gig, I is easily pleased.
No…eek! I meant the song ‘Baby’….(see previous)
