Plans & Apologies caught my attention when Pandazpop sent me a link to their new video, Mel Gibson’s Iraq. This seven piece band is headquartered in Derby, England and they come with a political message. If you enjoy Stephen Malkmus’ work and dig stuff like the Kinks, you should listen to these guys. Check out the video to Mel Gibson’s Iraq:

Besides Wes Anderson’s The Darjeeling Limitied, there is one other movie that I’m looking forward to see in September: The Hottest State. The movie is based on the novel of the same title written by Ethan Hawke, who directs and co-stars The Hottest State. Check out the trailer:
The soundtrack to the film was written entirely by Jesse Harris. This is the list:
01 Rocha “Ya No Te Veria Mas (Never See You)”
02 Willie Nelson “Always Seem to Get Things Wrong”
03 Feist “Somewhere Down the Road”
04 Bright Eyes “Big Old House”
05 Emmylou Harris “The Speed of Sound”
06 Jesse Harris “It Will Stay With Us”
07 The Black Keys “If You Ever Slip”
08 M. Ward “Crooked Lines”
09 Norah Jones “World of Trouble”
10 Brad Mehldau “Never See You”
11 Cat Power “It’s Alright to Fail”
12 Jesse Harris “One Day the Dam Will Break”
13 Tony Scherr “You, the Queen”
14 “Morning in a Strange City (Cafe)”
15 Rocha “No More”
16 Jesse Harris “Dear Dorothy”
17 Rocha “Never See You”
18 “There Are No Second Chances”
Remember the saying “don’t judge a book buy it’s cover”? Well, today thats bullshit in weenie world, because I’m going to judge this movie buy its soundtrack and its looking real good.

…well I might as well give away Erol Alkan. Not that he’s a secret. This London-based dj has re-mastered so many songs I’m not even going to bother to mention them. If you enjoyed the previous songs I’ve posted, you’ll enjoy Erol. A friend of a friend of a friend told me he is coming to the US along with one of the Ed Banger groups but they might be lying.
This is a year old song of a Klaxons remix:
