4. Savages - She Will (Silence Yourself)

*A prior mux had a version of "Unspoken" not featured on Rounds. Specifically, it used a piano sample from Tori Amos's "Winter" that was never cleared but isn't hard to find. Yep. Thrilling.

Mux094: February 2012

Dropped in the Box.

Yeah yeah yeah, strange that, for all my gushing over Cloud Nothings there's none of Attack On Memory here. Not a huge secret, but I compile the tracklists pretty much the moment I finish one Mux, and I spend about two weeks piecing it together and swapping stuff out. So I already had the tracks before CN's album came out. This one is long enough as it is, so I took off the grafted-on "Wasted Days" finale since that beast runs nine minutes.

1. Superchunk - Digging For Something (Majesty Shredding)
2. Rilo Kiley - Portions For Foxes (More Adventurous / Rock Band 3)
3. Midlake - Roscoe (The Trials of Van Occupanther)
4. Weekend - The One You Want (Red EP)
5. Junior Boys - In The Morning (So This Is Goodbye)
6. Four Tet - You Could Ruin My Day (Pause)
7. Hot Chip - The Warning (The Warning)
8. John Mayer - Kid A (Radiohead cover) (Bigger Than My Body single)
9. Fucked Up - Ship of Fools (David Comes To Life)
10. Deerhunter - Strange Lights (Cryptograms)

TRT 42:59.

Rookies:
John Mayer (and I don't think he'll ever show up on a Mux again)
Midlake

Mux061: Labor Daze / The Year of Archetype: Day 258

Download or stream off drop.io.

Mystery tracklist!

I figure all two of you that jump at my muxes have already parsed the tracks. For those who haven't, or for those who want the tracklist to determine whether or not they will listen to this hipster slag:

1. Jay-Z - 99 Problems
2. Aesop Rock - None Shall Pass
3. Eyedea & Abilities - Paradise (JDK Edit)
4. Gorillaz - Dare
5. YACHT - I'm In Love With A Ripper
6. Four Tet - Twenty Three
7. The Unicorns - I Was Born (A Unicorn)
8. The Magnetic Fields - I Think I Need A New Heart
9. Jens Lekman - Friday Night At The Drive-In Bingo
10. Pink Floyd - Fearless
11. The Mountain Goats - The Best Ever Death Metal Band In Denton

And if you haven't figured it out already, I post muxes on the first and the fifteenth. I usually do newish music for my first-of-the-month mux, then either some oldish favorites or some sort of theme for the midmonth mux.

* * *

Yesterday's post resulted in a relative deluge of texts and Facebook messages that, in brief, threatened DEATH if I quit Archetype. I thought prefacing the post-in-question with "I'm gonna air this out" meant it was sort of a theoretical exercise, but many took it literally. As I think I've mentioned several times, abandoning Arc is a ridiculous, childish, backward move, and to all involved it'd be disrespectful, unfair, and downright mean.

In the post I wanted to give some transparency to the often-conflicting process of filmmaking, which is, as this blog posits, quite often film-aching. It would be a lie to say it's always fun and easy. I guess I was misleading when I listed all the semi-valid reasons to just give up, and for those of you who were genuinely upset at what seemed like forfeiture, I apologize.

That said, I've pinned down a fifteen-day stretch at the start of October in which I think I have a very good shot at finishing what I need to get shot while it's still autumn-y outside; maybe I could even run a few marathon days and finish the bastard. I know it all sounds fairly dubious coming from me, given at this point I'm still getting everyone's availability and, as a result, can't unequivocally say that, for example, October 18 or October 30 or November 8 will be the last day of shooting. We'll know once we get there.
