Telefon Tel Aviv
i’ve been on a bit of a Telefon Tel Aviv kick lately, having both re-visited their two full lengths and freshly discovered a handful of their remix work. one of the tracks on their MySpace page music player entitled “You Are The Worst Thing In The World” is one of the most compelling songs they’ve ever done, slated to be on their upcoming third album (its also been picked up for Sasha’s Involver 2 which i mentioned yesterday). also in their player, I came upon for the first time a great remix of Carmen Rizzo & Esthero’s “Too Rude” off of Rizzo’s debut full length “The Lost Art Of The Idle Moment” which I really enjoyed. i shot over to the iTunes Music Store and bought it immediately, $0.99 well spent.
other remixes of theirs that i’ve had on repeat are the two remixes they’ve done for Apparat, one of which is of the standout track “Arcadia” off his most recent Walls album, and the other being of a track called “Komponent”. both of those remixes are available on the Apparat remix compilation “Things To Be Frickled” and both are unquestionably the two best tracks there.
