Jam of the Day Revisited: Róisín Murphy - "Overpowered"


In anticipation of new material coming out from her, including an EP of Italian disco-pop tracks and a new solo record, I am looking back at the brilliant title track to Róisín Murphy's second solo record. We have all been there, thinking we are over someone and then a trigger comes out of nowhere that shuts you down completely. In a simple line, Murphy sums everything up "When I think that I'm over you/I'm overpowered." The brilliant video also perfectly works with the theme of the song.

Jam of the Day Revisited: Saint Etienne - "Tonight"



A lot of people don't understand my love and passion for music. If you are one of those people, this song won't make any sense to you.

Jam of the Day Revisited: Light Asylum - "Heart of Dust"



They sound like La Roux, if Grace Jones was the lead singer.

Jam of the Day Revisited: Bear In Heaven - "Sinful Nature"



Revisiting my favorite Jams of the Day from the past year in advance of my list of favorite tracks next week. Bear In Heaven's "Sinful Nature" was on constant repeat all year long. Great song.

Jam of the Day Revisited: Knife Party - "Internet Friends"



Again, I am returning this week to some of the tracks that were my Jam's of the Day during 2012 and will appear on next week's countdown. This song was basically required listening in every DJ set at every show and festival I went to this year. It's still a killer track with some awesome drops. And it's fucking funny.

Jam of the Day Revisited: Usher - "Climax"



Because my year end lists are coming soon, I thought it would be a nice idea to look back on some of my favorite Jam of Days from the past year. This was a surprisingly fruitful collaboration between Usher and Diplo which finds the two working in a more subtle manner.
