Random five, described!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Digable Planets - Swoon Units<\/a>. Minimalist, jazzy, swinging: as are all the best Digable Planets songs. Even though this isn't one of those...\n
  2. New Pornographers - Sing Me Spanish Techno<\/a>. Incredibly catchy: as are all the best New Porno songs. This one is one of the best.\n
  3. Oxford Collapse - Molasses<\/a>. One of this band's best. Not sure why these guys weren't more popular. Maybe they were just a few years late - they do have a bit of an early 90s sound. Archers, definitely.\n
  4. Mos Def - New World Water<\/a>. A lot tougher than the Digable Planets, but definitely mining the same vein: a simple drum track with some minimal space-jazz samples to set a mood. Nothing like mainstream rap - then or now.\n
  5. Unrest - Teenage Suicide<\/a>. It's based on a song from a fictional band in the movie \"Heathers\", but it's pure Unrest: catchy, blissful and dizzy. They're another overlooked treasure. Knowing how much I loved the band, my girlfriend forced me to have a beer with the singer before a show, many decades ago. He was nice, but I had nothing to say to him.\n<\/ol>\n
