Kanslor - Avner

Avner - kanslor by MakerooM

This is the best song I can't sing along to, this year. Sincerely Yours's Avner covers Daniel Johnston, to stunning effect.

Kanslor - Avner

The Prayer - Kid Cudi

Old news, I know. This guy bugs me, but this song doesn't suck. Over hyped and marginally skilled cleveland emcee Cudi flips Band Of Horses's(??)Funeral into moving emo rap.

Do Your Best - John Maus

Do Your Best by MakerooM

Dreamy box-steppin slow motion pop from John Maus. Can be found in the trailer for indie flick Lying.

Yes Ma'am - Visti & Meyland Trentemoller Remix

Danish wunderkind Trentemoller gets all lickety split with haunted bluesy sing-alongs. The sampled chants of some ol'time lady wanting her man to buy her shit, is in one way, very hip-hop or modern, but the ghostly recording puts it through the devil machine. The twisting of the bass, and what sounds like a broken accordion, is both funky and haunted. Moby tried this blues-sample and beats way back in the day, but this is something else, something wicked, this ways comes. Seriously hot. Don't sleep.

Mirror Edge - XV ft GLC Bun B (Benzi rmx)

Heavy cheese factor, but there is just something about this ecstatic rap genre that gets me. Bun B saves the day over heavy heavy 808's.

If I Ever Feel Better - Phoenix

I dedicate this song to the weird Asian flu that is kicking my ass.
