Tracks of the Week: Orange
Boards of Canada "Aquarius" - Want to hear me say the word "orange"? Listen closely at 1:30, and again a few moments later, and again and again throughout the rest of the song. It's actually not me, but my friends think otherwise. This track is one of the highlights off of BoC's stellar debut album The Music Has the Right to Children. Their newest album released this fall isn't different enough to set itself apart from its predecessors. Yet it's still a highlight from this year's worth of sublime electronic music. Buy It.
Wendy Carlos "March From A Clockwork Orange" - This song is lifted from one of my favorite scenes of Kubrick's film, A Clockwork Orange. Alex wanders through a futuristic record store with all sorts of lights and gizmos and (?) records. You'd think in the future they'd be selling music on something other than records. But vinyl purists would never let that happen I suppose. Buy It.
