~~DJ Krush (featuring Zap Mama) "Danger of Love"~~ - Finding tracks for this week's theme was a cinch. A quick search in iTunes uncovered 308 songs with the word "love" in the title of the artist, song, or album. The tricky part was trying to narrow it down to two songs. I could've been a jackanapes and offered up Mr. T's "Mr. T, Mr. T (He Was Made For Love)" from his atrocious Mr. T's Commandments album. But that would be too mean. So instead you get this amazing track by DJ Krush collaborating with the all-female a cappella African quintet Zap Mama. Buy It.

~~Colder "Crazy Love"~~ - Colder's debut album Again got a lot of flack from the critics. Derivative, they called it. Treading on the sacred ground of Joy Division and other post-punk bands from the late '70s and early '80s. I think it's actually a nice little album, and I enjoy this song in particular. It has a nice rolling dubby beat reminiscent of the Krautrock era. You can decide for yourself. If you dig this track, then the rest of the album is worth searching out too. Buy It.
