This Week In Jams (TWIJ) is a sequenced weekly playlist featuring songs I think my friends (and future friends like you đ) may want to hear.
From Harry's House to Bloghouse?? Well, I didn't go full bloghouse, but definitely wanted a "sticky floors in some mid-2000s NYC club or apartment w/multiple code violations" vibe, so if you're looking for this very narrow slice of nostalgia marry me đ„Č
We have nearly 3 hours of jams that cover just about every dance subgenre there is! Justice, Phoenix, LCD Soundsystem, Armand Van Helden, Fred Falke, Cherokee, Gorillaz, ESG, the Chemical Brothers, and epic remixes from Soulwax and the DFA crew!
There's also a new Hot Chip song that sounds exactly like the old Hot Chip đ„ they knew I was making this playlist đ
Update: If youâre seeing this post now, This Week In Jams has been refreshed. No need to fear, you can find this particular playlist here:
TWIJ PLAYLIST HIGHLIGHTS
âSexy Results - MSTRKRFT Editionâ - Death From Above 1979
Ok, so there were a few YouTube videos to choose from, but if you want to get an embarrassing but also incredible slice of mid-to-late 2000s electronic dance music this groovy guy has you covered.
âDisco Sirensâ - Midfield General
*spirit fingers harder than anyone has ever spirited those fingers before*
âNow thissssss song is bloghouse!â
Itâs 1 AM and youâre getting ready to fall asleep in some sketchy apartment hallway, but then a friend slaps you in the face to wake you up and youâre like âwhy is there hot sauce on your haâ oh god thatâs not hot sauce what thââ I made this up! Definitely did not happen to me!
Anyways, this song is incredible please listen thank you
âNumber 3â - The Phantomâs Revenge
If there is one DJ/producer keeping French touch dance music alive itâs the Phantomâs Revenge. I learned about him during a late night turntable.fm session and became an instant super fan. His songs are a lot but ummmm you do know me, right? Well, if you donât, I AM A LOT (see, I used all caps to prove it).
âThe Hand That Feeds (DFA Mix)â - Nine Inch Nails
While I torture myself weekly to produce these playlists, discovering old gems is one of the many reasons I keep doing this project. Itâs always a risky venture to remix a classic song, but if thereâs any group I trust to nail a remix itâs the DFA Records crew. They respect the original material and, dare I say, find a way to elevate it? You decide!
