- Paul Kalkbrenner - Gebrünn Gebrünn iTunes must hate Mr. Kalkbrenner. I reported a bad encoding of his track, "The Palisades", years ago. It's still messed up (you can hear it in the preview). My download of "Deep" also has dropouts in it. Is BPitch providing the crappy encodings or is Apple out to get him? Luckily my copy of "Gebrünn Gebrünn" is clean and sounds wonderful. This track has such a big, yet lush, sound.
- Radiohead - All I Need Perfect for an afterparty. Since we're talking Radiohead, I need to link this masterpiece.
- LCD Soundsystem - Big Ideas Rock! I want an extended version of this track. I find myself in possession of a head full of big ideas after I have a beer or two. My wife calls a beer a "bottle of words" for me. Much like the lyrics in this song, most of those ideas are gone the next morning or condemned to live life on a hastily scribbled piece of paper, of which there are dozens in my dresser. It's no lie, this writeup is coming from one of those scraps of paper :) Thanks to Jason for pointing me to this soundtrack that slipped my radar.
- Zombie Nation - Black Toys No doubt you are familiar with Zombie Nation's "Kernkraft 400" track. I believe it is required to be played at all major sporting events worldwide. Anyway, Zombie Nation is more than that track. I really enjoy the harshness that starts about 1:23 into this one. Sounds even better pitched up a touch.
- Gnarls Barkley - Run (I'm a Natural Disaster) I'm not digging the new album as much as I thought I would, but I can't sit still listening to this one.

The radiohead track might be my favorite off that album (I bought mine for $3, how much did you pay?). It's interesting that you can link to it on iTunes, when they initially shunned them.
Still loving the 21 soundtrack, and definitely not digging the new Gnarls Barkley (and to be honest, I'm really tired of their first album).
