Here is volume 2 of my disco playlist I started a couple weeks ago. I must say I'm happy to go ahead and get this one out because I'm getting a little tired of disco. But you should still listen to it. ps If you're upset that I left the Disco Biscuits out on both of these playlists then I hate you (and I hate your ass face).
1. Caribou - "Bowls"
The percussion on this is just amazing. I knew I was hearing music when I heard wind chimes on some suburban front porch--Dan Snaith brought my fake memories to life.
2. Destroyer - "Bay of Pigs"
You're not going to think this is disco until about...seven and a half minutes in. Dan Bejar said it himself though, this is an "ambient disco" track. It is long but give it a chance. Probably may favorite track way back from the year 2009. "Free and easy, gentle, gentle, the wind through the trees makes you mental for me. Nancy in a state of crisis on a cloud." That's the disco part.
3. Cut Copy - "A Dream"
I had this stuck in my head for a long time a couple of years ago so now you have to endure the same.
4. Phoenix - "If I Ever Feel Better"
Guarantee you won't understand any lyrics in this except for the chorus. It's one of those things where you could make one of those really lame youtube videos with spoof lyrics text. Like I said, you'll understand the chorus. If I ever feel better :(
5. Memory Tapes - "Bicycle"
I don't know, I could dance to it. Soft synth, hard synth, soft synth, hard synth.
6. Faunts - "Feel.Love.Thinking.Of"
Not really as disco but still a little dancy. And infectious.
7. Broken Social Scene - "Hotel"
Groovy bass line. Sleek, looks like a Mexican sun.
8. LCD Soundsystem - "Disco Infiltrator"
Obviously. James Murphy rules.
9. Lykke Li - "Dance Dance Dance"
Acoustic disco. Disco that produces oxymora.
10. Disco Inferno - "New Clothes For The New World"
Just because I'm trying to make people listen to more Disco Inferno.
11. Bibio - "Jealous Of Roses"
Bibio is a sound artist. Vintage recording equipment, experimental recording techniques, found sound, etc. Really cool.
12. Here We Go Magic - "Tunnelvision"
I've loved this song since the first time I heard it.
13. Starfucker - "German Love"
This doesn't really seem that disco now that I think about it but it ended up on here and I don't feel like changing it. Sounds kind of like a happy version of a Pinback song sequence. German love, I'll give it to you.
14. Geggy Tah - "Whoever You Are"
Silly song that you may recognize from a Mercedes commercial from like 10 years ago. Really silly.
15. Pistol Disco - "Pool"
LISTEN TO THIS SONG. I don't know much about this band but this track is cool as shit. Buy their record.
16. Of Montreal - "Id Engager"
Bonus track, suggestion from The Great Gazoo.
