As you well know, dear readers, music is for mood-making. Regardless of the situation, the dramatic tension could be increased, the libido stoked, the bus ride made a teeny bit more bearable, if only the right backing tracks are available. With this in mind, Today’s Blogspot brings you our recurring series of situational mini-mixes: The Shuffle.
First up, The White People Picnic Party.
Ottoman – Vampire Weekend: Out of season picnics are ill-advised and, increasingly, summer will be heralded by Vampire Weekend’s breed of preppy pop.
Jamie Lidell – Wait For Me: Paradoxically, Jamie Lidell somehow manages to be both as white and soulful as a self-aware hip hop reference.
Nothing To Worry About – Peter, Bjorn and John: That other bastion of snow and socialized healthcare, Sweden, brings you a Stockholm picnic party!
Old Enough – The Raconteurs: Jack White presents a nouveau Sweet Home Alabama for the indie rock set. And there ain’t nuthin whiter than a little Skynyrd.
No One's Better Sake – Little Joy: Caucasian? How about art pop from the drummer of The Strokes? ‘Nuff said.
