My idea of a perfect love song changes practically everyday. Being the music nerd and weirdo that I am -- if you are the object of my desire, I will probably make you a mixtape that is 1) a little cheesy, 2) eclectic. Very eclectic.
I can probably send you a mix sprinkled with some classics like Stevie Wonder, Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald, Otis Redding,etc. Dig into the crate for some old Zero 7, Jazzanova, Rae & Christian - hit up some indie by Feist, Cat Power and the Decemberists... some world classics by Fela Kuti, Cesaria Evora.. or even songs sung by Japanese children ( a language that you nor I can understand, maybe) but I added it to our "love mixape" just because thought it sounded pretty and they could very well be singing about carrots. But who cares? It sounds pretty, you* probably make me feel pretty...so alas, its in the mixtape I made for you. I love songs from across the globe especially studying different styles of music every day of my life... I can probably tell you I love you* so many different ways without really saying it. ( I* love that I am talking in first person to a hypothetical "you")
Anyway, Schneider TM is from Germany and Erlend Oye is from Norway* (Thanks, George! :) . Its difficult to think of minimal dub, IDM stuff as anything close to romantic - but alas, I found something cute, happy and probably a track I will one day use for that mixtape to my one and only.
Enjoy
