CYFM#1503

CYFM#1503 gets you going with a superb soundscape beat by Clams Casino. It comes in so hard. Next, a classic by Ricardo Villalobos, a soft tune by Braids, some bit-pop by the amazing Anamanaguchi and a classic Gladys Knight. Enjoy.

CYFM#1502

CYFM#1502, yes there's one missing. You are correct. Due to time spent elsewhere but behind the computerscreen there is one less playlist. But that is just so I can guarantee you this one is top quality. A lot of these tracks come from Hype Tracks 2014 overview. I was scrolling through those and noticed I hade missed a lot of good stuff in the past year. So I assembled them here. Starred: Mick Jenkins' The Water(s) is a crazy album in total, go check that out. And: Phantogram's Fall In Love, this song haunted me for a whole week, that melody tho. Bye now.

CYFM#1452

CYFM#1452, is the last list of the year, but yeah, by now you've noticed I'm just hopelessly behind on posting them on here. Tbh, this list was just something I threw together quickly and I didn't really listen to these tracks a lot, but this one's mood is very consistent. Recommended to listen to when feeling a bit melancholy and hopefull at the same time, feeling like everything will be allright, in time. Enjoy.

CYFM#1451

CYFM#1451, this one must be the most random list since this started out. I don't think there are any "new" tracks in here, just some stuff I stumbled upon. Butter has been out for a while and Hudson Mohawke has since releases some other bang-gerz, but FUSE is still as hot as the first time I heard it. Mr. Carmack's productions are very on-point, but this will be all the bass music you'll be getting this week. The rest of the tracks are without comment, just plain ol' good stuff. Cherry on the cake, Boyz II Men: so weird I had never heard this song before, this is too much. Bring back 90's R'n'B allready.

CYFM#1450

CYFM#1450, a playlist from last year. There is no particular story connected to this list and these songs. I like to listen to a lot of different styles and eras, but to whom follows this series, that shouldn't come as a surprise. So this is just some stuff thrown together, hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Kind regards, Michiel.

CYFM#1449, is pretty mellow in its entirety. I just want to suggest that you enjoy this one when you don't really feel like "throwing down" or "turning up". One thing I do want to point out is the Niki & The Dove track. I don't understand why I never heard any of their stuff on the radio out here in Belgium. It is one of the best albums of the past decade, just saying. The songwriting is typically northern-europe. As per current trend, they should be all over the place. Rediscovery of the week, K-Ci & JoJo, it's one of those songs I knew by heart without knowing. hf.

Such sweet graphics, damn!

CYFM#1448, so so late. The new year is already here, but I'm so late with posting these lists, it's embarrassing. This one right here has some interesting stuff going on though, so you be best to check it out. Kickin' it off with some old-skool klassik tunez by my man Debussy, I just love those impressionist sounds. It takes 4 guitaro-tracks to arrive to the beats by Clark, just so Tokyo Police Club can distort the kicks away with their (to me at least) classic Tessellate. Furthermore you'll hear an awesome wavey Lido remix for alt-J, and closing off this week is Luc De Vos, because we should never deny the impact his music had on us. R.I.P.

CYFM#1447, is yet again a classic build-up. Jack Johnson starts of with his  version of The Pina Colada Song. I Picked up Monogem from the soundtrack for MTV's Awkward with a song that reminds me of The Knife's Heartbeats. Clark dropped his latest last week and it's a rad longplay. I think his productions keep getting better and better, crazy. Stumbled upon an old Jamie Lidell funkin' it out and got introduced to Kero Kero Bonito through a friend. He knows I'm into that stuff, and I still believe this is the future sound of pop, or at least a possibility I'm rooting for :)! Go get some!

I'm a big fan of Steve Reich, and this Light Motif video is stunningly choreographed to the music. Awesome aesthetics.

CYFM#1446, I have not much to say but #IDFWY. Big Sean does a Big track right here with Mustard on the beat. The latter has been featured a couple of times here at CYFM, I really dig his minimalistic approach. Oh yeah, I stumbled upon Seth MacFarlanes's album Music Is Better Than Words, which is a real treat. It's like Brian Griffin is singing the whole time. Very easy listening. Go for it!

CYFM#1445, represents me I guess. A lot of Arca's sound of the near future, and I believe in it. Some modern pop voices like Ariana and Lily are there as well. Then I stumbled upon some older music by Good Shoes. I listened to that album a million times some years back. I can vibe to all this, what about you guys?

CYFM#1444, is kind of based around 3 acts. First How To Dress Well. I went to see them play, and headed towards the show with no great expectations, as I was in doubt if their atmospheric music would translate to the stage. The band (yep, it's a band) delivered a strong and funny set. Tom talked a lot between the songs, a lot of chuckles were shared amongst the crowd. Furthermore, Run The Jewels dropped the best hip-hop album of late, bringing an original and high-energy sound. Digging this. Lastly, Baauer dropped a new EP, and boy, it does bang. I couldn't really choose what I liked most. The production quality is astonishing, really, really crisp and deep. Props to that man.

CYFM#1443, is last weeks playlist. A week later, but sometimes it's hard to find the time, you know. This list is quite divers, ranging from M. Ward's soft guitars, to Boaz van de Beatz heavy hardcore revival. In the middle, you'll find Sin Fang, an artist I discovered when travelling through Iceland earlier this year. Be sure to check out his album Flowers, i'm in love with his songs, drenched in the typical Icelandic indie-pop sound. Other strong atmospheric songs by Arsenal, a Belgian band I've been following since the very beginning, and by S-Type bringing some clean bass music, in dire need of a rap. Drake allegedly would have asked for this track to be used on NWTS, but that never happend. Too bad.

[cartyeah]

CYFM#1442, filled with classics. Well not real classics, but a collection of songs I retrieved from old playlists I seemed to have forgotten about. I deleted the lists, but kept these tracks for memories’ sake. Hope you can enjoy them as much as I have. I've thrown in Alt-j's latest, because they did not disappoint with the new album. ✌️

CYFM#1441, features some new Flying Lotus and Caribou. The track that caught most of my attention this week was, however, A.G.Cook's remix for How To Dress Well. Followers of CYFM# might have noticed I'm a fan of both of these artists. The rework was much smoother than Cook's other works, but still very recognisable in style. Using familiar sampling style and effects, the tracks excels in simplicity and austerity. Would work well on the dancefloor with a 4 to the floor.
