work is repetition.

Artist Song
r÷yksopp  clean sweep 
cap'n jazz  oh messy life 
liars  broom 
tapes 'n tapes  dirty dirty 
shugo tokumaru  the mop 
papercuts  just another thing to dust 
jimmy eat world  garbage picker 
animal collective  chores 
beatsteaks  clean sheets (descendents) 
party of helicopters  free junk 
emily haines  the maid needs a maid 
junior boys  work 
wheat  can't wash it off (naked version) 
memory cassette  listen to the vacuum 
joy division  disorder 

Comment:

60 minutes. my parents got this new vacuum and it's pretty much the most awesome household appliance ever. i know that makes me sound completely whack, but the many capabilities of that sucker motivated me to do a massive cleaning today. hence a mix with references to cleaning. but it's not really about cleaning lyrically, as much as it's about the feeling behind it. and not rushed proactive productive spring cleaning either; it's like slow hazy mind-numbing summer day cleaning - with lots of breaks to accommodate growing thirst and the increasing attention deficit. the result is a weirdly distant and sort of detached mix. i'm not necessarily happy with the order of the songs on here, but no matter how i rearranged them, nothing felt "right" so i had to settle.
