The Chemical Brothers "Galvanize"

While this song is 20+ years old, it keeps swinging back into my orbit every so often, but it's such a good song, why wouldn't it? I am sure that I heard this on a commercial at some point because I am Gen X and apparently have money now. I mean, I heard Depeche Mode played before a commercial break while watching an NFL game the other day. That said, this song gets me to chair dance, which is a high indicator for me that a track is fire. I've included the album version here because it's three minutes longer than the radio version. Who doesn't want more of a good thing? Not me! Happy Wednesday! Enjoy!

Max Richter "And Know The Place for The First Time"

I am a huge fan of Max Richter, and while I was reading on Sunday I came across this track, which to my ear sounds like a variation on piece of his that I absolutely adore, "November." I am back to the day job today and I am full of anxiety, so having instrumental music play in the background this morning is exactly what I need. Do you have any neo-classical favorites?

Perfume Genius "Fool"

As my anxiety increases at the thought of returning to work on Monday this track brings me the peace that I need to start my weekened. Also, it's really fucking good. Honestly, the first time I heard it (which, I confess, was only in the last few months), I thought this was Michael Stipe/REM.   Nope! Still a great song. Enjoy!
