i’ve spent the evening obsessing over the music of the irrepressibles, trying to wrap my head around how this beautiful band has never crossed my path before. though their library is small—just an EP from 2008 and last year’s LP release, mirror mirror—i’ve never heard them referenced, interviewed, remixed, etc. a friend passed on a breathtaking video, and in a brief...

yael naim - toxic (britney spears). guilty or not, interpretations of pop music songs end up being my favorite cover songs. i’ve no idea where i found this one, but it’s delicate and perfect.

you broke them in, then you gave them to me.
i made three DJ mixes in the past 24 hours. 1 of 3.
