10 favorite songs of 08

So I guess forward is starting a blog and they were thinking we should all do a list of 08 or something. Here are the 10 songs i listened to most this year. Keep in mind I didn't specify FROM this year. It's a rar archive so you'll need some sort of uncompressing utility.

Surkin - Next of Kin
I heard this in the unreleased Fabric mix that Justice did and just figured it was them doing an edit of something. Then I happened on the actual track in a compilation.

Iron Virgin - Rebels Rule
I've always loved glam so one night on soulseek I got a bunch of best of's and compliations. This is the only tracks the really caught my attention but i can't stop listening to it.

Sebastien Tellier - Sexual Sportswear
Sebastien Tellier and Arpegiators. Put two of my favorite things together then add production help from a member of daft punk and you can't lose.

Portishead - Machinegun
I find some of third kind of off putting in how much every song sound like another song (silverapples much?) but this minimal electro gem easily rises above it's allusions.

Harry Manfredini - Theme to Friday the 13th Part 3
An instrumental from the 80's that could easily have been made by Chromeo.

Yuksek - Tonight
Phillip Clark showed me this song a couple weeks ago and i've since listened to it at least a hundred times. Everything about this song is perfect.

Jack White and Alicia Keys - Another Way to Die
I'm obsessesed with fuzz tone. This has got it en mass. Really crazy arrangement and the best bond theme since a view to a kill.

Women - Black Rice
I played a couple shows with them in the Jon Mckiel band not person. They didn't have any records yet so i didn't hear this until a bit latter but it was definetly a standout track of the shows.

Paul McCartney - Check My Machine
This is on the reissue of McCarney 2. From what I gather this was not a sucessful record at the time. The world was not ready. Forget about the beatles or any of those other guys. Get this record and try to tell me this isn't the music of the future.

Mr oizo Sebastian and Sebastien Tellier - Skatesteak
From the soundtrack to Oizo's movie Steak. Easier to watch than electroma.
