Portishead - Machine Gun Kode 9 - Bodies
The portishead sounds like a machine gun and is called machine gun which I like. Seems to do something interesting with the 'space' of the music? Too ignorant about terminology to phrase it better than that. I'm not at all sure the lyrics would work on their own but there's something about them embedded in this particular beat that works, same for the Kode 9 track.
Roxy Music - Angel Eyes
If you weren't a human and were trying to seduce a human, you might construct this song in order to do so, a bit like how the obelisk constructs the weird hotel room for the astronaut at the end of 2001 a space odyssey
Broadcast - Black Cat
Song is not *about* a black cat, it's *like* a black cat
DMX Crew - You Can't Hide Your Love
Like the big names of 80s british electro pop without any of the things I don't like about them, seems to have an actual vulnerability and ambiguity to it, I like Smalltown Boy for the same reason
Brian Eno - St Elmo's Fire
Going to avoid spoiling this by trying to say anything about it, although to sketch something out, a key word in the song might be the word 'we'
Danger Doom - Benzie Box
Probably the width of diction and reference points, combined with the way he says it all with an unswerving confidence that it matters a lot
Fever Ray - If I Had A Heart
Adding 'If' to the idea that people have hearts makes the idea of having a heart weird and different
Phyllis Dillon - Leave It In The Hands Of Love Factory Floor - Two Different Ways Kraftwerk - Neon Lights
Can't at present articulate anything about these, more just lying here listening to them over and over.

Re: the DMX Crew track, I mean somehow more affecting than Depeche Mode being 'tortured'. Except I'm not knocking the theatrical exaggerated tortured quality of DM, just find I have to be in the right mood for it, whereas with this track I'm always in the right mood

xpost I like Dominique's inclusion of 10 Darkthrone tracks. That band, and the whole black metal genre basically, is a real treasure that I would have totally missed out on if I never lurked here. Sorry in advance for my commentary.
Animal Collective - Native BelleAnimal Collective - Amanita Grimes - Vowels = Space and TimeGrimes - Crystal BallVampire Weekend - Diane Young (weird, because I never liked this band...) Say Hi to Your Mom - Blah Blah Blah (a much reviled band, but this concept album about vampires is a twee masterpiece)Bob Dylan - Don't Think Twice, It's Alright (At Budokan) Robyn - Call Your Girlfriend Justin Timberlake - Mirrors (sorry)Crystal Castles - Not in Love (album version, not the Robert Smith version.)Magnetic Fields - 100,000 Fireflies (thought I burned out on this, but the final verse really hit me the other day.)
