jason torbert is brilliant on all levels of brilliancy. it's funny how his music was never supposed to leave his bedroom,but when it did he named it goddamn electric bill. his stuff isn't like music you normally hear with your dance synth's and beats,but instead you hear eccentric rhythms and an occasional guitar here and there. the only word i can describe goddamn electric bill is unique. you be the judge of that. there's lots of tunes on his myspace,peep it.

bonus:
god damn electric bill-climbing spiral stairs.
sigur ros-untitled 1(goddamn electric bill remix)

architecture in helsinki's new single "heart it races" is probably the song i've heard remixed most in the past month. the song is great in it's original entirety but the remixes i've heard are 8 times better. the song has a tropical/african kind of feel with the regular back and forth architecture lyrics. a-trak has done a remix,yacht has done a remix,pink skull did a remix. i bet if your mother had the right equipment and knowledge she would remix this song aswell.

architecture in helsinki-heart it races(original)
