30 day music challenge

day 07 - a song that reminds you of a certain event

I was struggling to think of a track for day 07, and as I sat here typing in this box, searching through shuffle mode, I came across Autechre - O=0.

It made me imagine something beautiful, something remarkable, which I don't think I'll reveal just yet. At first it gave me goosebumps, and after a minute I burst into tears. Even though I basically live to have my emotions affected by music, it's very rare that it actually makes me cry. I've been listening to this track for months, but it's only just hit me with the beauty it really has.

From now on, this track will always remind me of what just happened, so I guess I'll post it for day 07:

Another in the very small list of tracks that have made me cry:

Day 8 - A song you know all the words to

Dopplereffekt - Scientist

Day 9 - Dance

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhYqMSSpYrk

Was hard to choose one Crydamoure track, I love them all and they all made me dance one day. My favourite house music by faaaar, sounds fresh and kewl, lets the sun shine in your life for 6 minutes. Everytime I get a bit drunk with a friend of mine we put this song (or Lovers by Raw Man, or Wetness Anthem by Deelat, or Santa Claus by Le Knight Club) and we move our asses all night long. Bad dancing for ever.

9-dance

When I was about eight, I found a VHS tape full of David Bowie music videos. I started watching them a lot and I learned all the words to some of them. This one in particular is one of my favourite music videos.

Day 9 - A song you can dance to

Tango - Can't Stop The Rush

Yeah a few friends of mine suggested the same, though astonishingly I've never watched NBK (or heard that Bowie track). It also featured on a CSI episode but I haven't seem that ep either. It's the section at 1:32 - 1:45 that really seems familiar - I feel like someone like Fennesz or Tim Hecker has used it and ran it through some sort of granulisation .....
