    Help me finish this comp!

    Wanna play a game? Yesterday I started a comp but then some people came by and when I tried to pick it up again this morning I kinda lost track of where I wanted to go with it. I'm real happy with the first six songs and how they flow but am kinda curious to see what you guys suggest. Could be an interesting little experiment if I can get enough participation. So far:

    01. Stephen Malkmus - No More Shoes
    02. Spoon - I Turn My Camera On
    03. 13 & God - Soft Atlas
    04. The Album Leaf - Eastern Glow
    05. Andrew Bird - The Naming Of Things
    06. The Decemberists - Eli, The Barrow Boy
    07. Super Furry Animals - Play It Cool (Don't like this here. May change it to "Demons" or not use SFA altogether)
    08. Deconstruction - Wait For History (Not sure if I want any Deconstruction on this comp. May change it to "Single")

    If I don't have the suggested song I'll see if I can find an mp3 of it. This ain't a real comp anyway

    I'm not familiar with any of the tunes you've got so far. Inparticular I'd have to know the last one you've got to come up with a follow up suggestion. Maybe if you can post a more "common" song for track 9, this will take off.


    Did he say; "Common" song!?

    Just pick a song or two that you like. Looks like if I keep bumping this thread I'll have enough songs to finish . . . . . by year's end (maybe)

    I really like "Girl" from Beck's new album. I'm not familiar with many of the tunes you have so far, so I'm not sure if it fits at this particular point in your mix, but maybe you could find a spot for it somwhere.

    That's such a Sloshy comp so far. At least of the ones you've been doing for the past year or so.

    So if Beck is 9, then you need track 10. It's been a while since I've seen a Soundgarden cut on one of your comps.. haha. Ok Audioslave maybe? Just kidding.

    You should pick a track by Muse. Have you heard Muse? I think you'd like 'em. The track I'm fond of is "Stockholm Syndrome" but that might be too heavy and might not fit in. Check it out of you can. I'll have some other ideas later probably.

    I think Okkervil River's "For Real" should find its way on there somewhere.

    Substitute that crappy Spoon song...

    ...for a good Spoon song, like Sister Jack.

    Then put a track from The Soundtrack Of Our Lives' Borderline, find an extended remix version of In-a-gadda-da-vida and call it good.

    And then don't send me one.

    If we were doing a 'song of the day' thread today, I'd be going with "A Taste of Honey" by Patricia Barber. So have fun sequencing that into your sloshy comp!

    I'll go with one of my favorites from Luna's Pup Tent album, "Bobby Peru", which sounds very nice on vinyl...kind of an odd and quirky and sinister tale from Dean's disturbed mind...made an appearance on a odd and quirky and slightly sinister comp I made called Pirates and Mermaids.

    I told lies to your family
    Concerning your whereabouts
    They feel so sorry for me
    I invented jealous stories
    My imagination ran wild
    I made myself so angry
    The night that you insulted me
    I lay awake thinking
    Clever things I could have said
    My thoughts kept turning to Bobby Peru
    How would he handle this one

    'S' is for sorry for all that I did
    Now is the time to turn it all around
    I know what is the matter so why can't I fix it
    Forgive me please

    I had lunch with an old girlfriend
    Who knows all my faults
    And pretends to want to help
    She said I really don't mind
    Your keeping secrets from me
    But please don't keep them from yourself
    Murder is bad, and suicide is sad
    Why would a girl like that put her head in the oven?
    You have your theories, and I got one too
    It's such a waste

    Sorry Finch, gotta stick with "Camera" 'cause I was never in a drop D metal band.

    Also got me some Rheostatics in the mail today (Thanks!) that I could work in once I get to know it or someone could give me a suggestion other than "It" (great song but it's already on CRSv3).

    Hey, this thing is actually coming along

    find this..

    The Breeders - "Do You Love Me Now?" from the SAFARI ep (superior to the version on LAST SPLASH)

    Good luck.

    Unhappy Well, since you won't take my song suggestions...

    Maybe I can suggest a title:

    "Mein Compf" by Slosh the comp Nazi..."No songs for you!"
