Watch My Feet
Okay, I know it isn’t even December yet but I thought I’d present my album of the year:
Feed The Animals by Girl Talk
Feed The Animals is a gorgeous mosaic of over a hundred songs spanning a vast range of music from Sinead O’Connor to Lil’ Mama. Mash ups are often seen as a bit gimmicky and they can be but here Gregg Gillis forms a beautiful collage out of hard hip hop vocals, electronic classics like Girl/Boy Song and shit Europop like Ace Of Bass. It is seamlessly done and is more than the sum of its parts. It is also available as a “pay what you want” download so what is keeping you?
Everything Is Nice 
I am not much of a hip-hop or electronica fan but this is gloriously brilliant.

I somehow missed this post but to throw in my penny’s worth, I’m with you on this one – excellent album.
However, calling Ace of Bass ‘shit europop’ is not on. It’s true, but leave them be – it was a long time ago. Full disclosure: I own a copy of Happy Nation and am the only Ace of Base apologist I have ever heard of.
