Tracklist with some mild background notes:

  1. Adriano Celentano - Prisencolinensinainciusol. No deep meaning, it's just an interesting musical artifact. For the uninitiated, it's gibberish written to demonstrate what American English sounds like to people who don't speak it.
  2. Fleetwood Mac - Tusk. Have been gaining an appreciation for just how batshit crazy a lot of Fleetwood Mac's songs actually are when you listen properly.
  3. New Order - Crystal. Saw New Order live on the forecourt at the Sydney Opera House. Not bad for my last gig in Sydney.
  4. New Order - Blue Monday
  5. Hilltop Hoods - The Gift ft. Marlon (new release)
  6. VNV Nation - Silence Speaks (new release)
  7. Hannes Bieger - Marine Drive. Just a really nicely produced track that got on high rotation.
  8. Orbital & Tilda Swinton - Deepest. Both a fantastic track and absolutely hilarious (to me at least) - pisstake meditation, old raver jokes and show tunes... why not?
  9. Tinlicker x Robert Miles - Children. Not sure how I hadn't run into this remix before, but it's a great homage to the original.
  10. Joan Jett & the Blackhearts - Different. Popped up in some video short, and subsequently lived in my head for weeks.
  11. XTC - Dear God. Don't recall what brought this to mind, but it's always worth revisiting.
  12. Tom Waits - Chicago. It's a song about moving to a new city. Played while driving to Melbourne.
  13. Nine Inch Nails - As Alive As You Need Me To Be (new release)
  14. Karnivool - Aozora (new release)
  15. Skunkhour - Up To Our Necks In It. First gig in Melbourne was going to see Skunkhour's "Up To Our Necks In It (For 30 Years) Tour" at the Corner Hotel. A great gig and I got to meet Del and Aya after the show.
