Mux092: January 2012

Starting off the year with a bit of a clearinghouse. The sequencing holds, but a look at the tracklist looks rather unwieldy.

Boxed.

1. Battles - Africastle (MPLS.tv session) (Gloss Drop)
2. The Roots - One Time (Undun)
3. The Hold Steady - Chips Ahoy! (Boys And Girls In America)
4. The Strokes - Barely Legal (Is This It?)
5. Sleater-Kinney - One Beat (One Beat)
6. Radiohead - Climbing Up The Walls (OK Computer)
7. Deerhunter - Saved By Old Times (Microcastle)
8. Phantogram - Futuristic Casket (Eyelid Movies)
9. Oneohtrix Point Never - Child Soldier (Replica)
10. Air - Alone In Kyoto (Talkie Walkie / Lost In Translation Soundtrack)
11. The Beach Boys - Surf's Up (The Smile Sessions)

In particular, "Saved By Old Times" and "Alone In Kyoto" have been in my pending to-be-added-to-a-mux playlist for at least two years. And "Surf's Up" been there even since I heard The Smile Sessions; but given the multi-suite nature of most of Smile, it's hard to cram a Beach Boys cut into the mix. Thus, it caps it off.
