A weekly playlist for the listener with a one-track mind.
Coldplay featuring Skepta: "Rolex Sweep (Skepta Remix)" Coldplay's live D.I.Y. mash-up of Skepta's "Rolex Sweep" and its own "In My Place" gets remixed by Skepta himself, which only adds to its super-meta excellence.
Damien Jurado: "Gillian Was a Horse" Singer-songwriter Jurado's whispery, "Nebraska"-like folk discs usually go woefully unrecognized. But then again, he's not usually this perky.
Kirsten Price: "Bring Me Back" The U.K.-by-way-of-Brooklyn soul belter makes like Duffy on this track from her debut, "Guts & Garbage."
Doveman: "Let's Hear It for the Boy" Time was, this beloved spawn of the "Footloose" soundtrack was a hit single, and a favorite of pep squads and homecoming dances throughout the land. But that was before keyboardist Thomas Bartlett turned it into an unrecognizable dirge, simultaneously making it interesting and ruining it forever. From his "Footloose" mix tape, on which pretty much every song sounds just like this.
The Kid Daytona featuring CNN and Estelle: "Stressed Out '08" In slightly less depressing mix-tape homage news: This track from Kid Daytona's A Tribe Called Quest tribute, "A Tribe Called Fresh," features Estelle taking over for Faith Evans on this cover of Quest's 1996 track "Stressed Out."
