A playlist for epic winter days. Something about this time of year makes me want to watch Twin Peaks and listen to weird music. Here are a few of the songs that I'm obsessed with right now or have been obsessed with in years past as winter sets in. Enjoy.

tracks:

1. nightcall - kavinsky & lovefoxxx

2. rock classics - the knife

3. spanish armada - ratatat

4. i never learnt to share - james blake

5. the palm of your wave - bibio

6. lay in a shimmer - pantha du prince

7. feral - radiohead

8. the children - yeasayer

9. got 2 let u - the knife

10. return to the violence of the ocean floor - moonface

11. bay of bigs - destroyer

(Thanks to Camilla, Marigold, and Emily for introducing me to some of these gems.)

One of the best parts of our Montreal/Vermont trip was sharing so much good/new music with our friends. Yes, we enjoyed our share of YouTube parties and listened to some really baaaaaad (but funny) stuff and at some point I think we all made a note about something to look for and high on my list was this album by The Knife. Wanna get excited about a concert that took place half a decade ago? Watch this video. This is my new favourite thing ever.
