perfectmidnightworld: RADIO SLOW RIOT // EPISODE ELEVEN (4.20.12)
“…This episode is all new music (with a couple of recent re-releases for good measure) and brought with no interruptions (outside of the intro), and a focus on dream pop and lo-fi with the occasional shoegaze and ambient track peppered throughout. You might also notice there are several covers this time around and that’s purely coincidental, as there just happen to be some great covers popping up as of late. I digress. I’ll leave the music in your hands.
Please share/reblog with others if you like what you hear and or support any and all artists that strike your interest. Stream or download as you wish. Thanks for listening to Radio Slow Riot.

Please support the artists that you find and enjoy. Buy their music, merchandise and tickets to see their shows. Supporting them is the only purpose in doing this blog. Contrary to the opinions of some, music blogs are a great way to discover new music, but there will only be so much new music to go around if these artists can’t afford to support themselves through their art and commerce. Only use these mixtapes as a guide to find something to throw your (financial and emotional) support behind.

You’re eruptions and disasters
I keep calm admiring your lava

Ignition (Remix) - Young the Giant (R. Kelly cover)
there’s something so endearing about this that i can’t quite put my finger on. never mind that they look so completely normal with the fur coats (gotta love their straight faces), it’s a really good cover.
Use Somebody - Bat for Lashes (Kings of Leon cover)
Off in the night, while you live it up, I’m off to sleep
Waging wars to shape the poet and the beat…I hope it’s gonna make you notice
someone like me…

Addicted to Love - Florence + the Machine (Robert Palmer cover)
…You like to think that you’re immune to the stuff, oh yeah…
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
listening to light my fire by nancy sinatra and totally playing a montage of reservoir dogs, true romance and inglorious basterds in my head. …yes, all the stand off scenes.
i’ve got a deliciously fucked up mind.
this has been the pointless post of the day.
Everybody’s Gonna Be Happy - Queens of the Stone Age (the Kinks cover)
And I know…. I know…
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Let’s Dance - M. Ward (David Bowie cover)
If you say run, I’ll run with you
If you say hide, we’ll hide
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Can’t Seem to Make You Mine - the Ramones (the Seeds cover)
I can’t go on like this
A little bit of love, not one kiss
I gotta have your love everyday
A love that’s real, that will stay
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
By Your Side - Beachwood Sparks (Sade cover)
When you’re on the outside, baby, and you can’t get in
I will show you, you’re so much better than you know
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Disintegration - Papercutz (the Cure cover)
I leave you with photographs
Pictures of trickery
Stains on the carpet and
Stains on the memory
Songs about happiness murmured in dreams
When we both of us knew
How the end always is
