Have You Noticed I’ve Been Gone

23 tracks on the Better Spins playlist this week (which is surprising, considering I feel like I listened to nothing but Worlds, The Ineffable Truth, and All My Friends for days).

Some highlights:

The Funk Hunters – Party Rockin (Sparkee Remix). Never apologize for party rockin.
Gotye – Puzzle With A Piece Missing. All the hype may have gone to Somebody That I Used To Know but real OGs know this is his best track. Fun fact: He is Australian-Belgian and his real name is Wouter “Wally” De Backer.
Tycho, Saint Sinner – Japan. Tycho with vocals, where have you been all my life??
John Mayer – My Stupid Mouth. With all the social media hate this guy takes nowadays, it’s hard to remember 18yrs ago when Room for Squares came out and he was literally the heartthrob.
Feed Me (ft. Rosie Doonan) – Feel Love. Very floaty, vocals have a very Florence and the Machine quality. h/t @vodakov
Conro – Remember You (Chill Mix). It literally says “chill mix” in the title. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Porter Robinson – Sad Machine. “And though I know, since you’ve awakened her again, she depends on you.” Cements its distinction as my all-time favorite song.
Porter Robinson, Madeon – Shelter. I legitimately never thought I’d get to see live Shelter again, to experience this one more time made my heart burst.
Porter Robinson – Polygon Dust. Live edit was absolutely bonkers. Also had totally forgotten Lemaitre did the vocals for this track.
Madeon – Pixel Empire. Doesn’t get the same love as the rest of Adventure but this track really stands out in how it helped shape the world he was trying to create.
G Jones – Understanding the Possibility. This song has so much depth, I’ve probably cleared two dozen listens and I still find myself getting lost in it.
