Tracklist.
1/ Steve Reich – Electric Counterpoint Part 1
« Steve Reich is one of our favorite modern composers and a major influence. This piece uses counterpoint in a way I’ve never heard before. »
2/ The Ramones – 53rd & 3rd
« Gotta love The Ramones, this record is one of our favorites of all time. »
3/ Arvo Part – Te Deum
« Arvo Part’s music is almost indescribable. He strives to write « spiritual » music, and I have to say he accomplishes that objective better than any composer I’ve ever heard. At about 5 minutes in the piece climaxes to probably my favorite moment in music EVER. »

« We’ve always been huge fans of Godspeed, would love to hear another record from them! »
5/ Max Richter – Sunlight

7/ The Beach Boys – You Still Believe in Me

8/ Colourmusic – Tog
« This fellow Oklahoma band brings the heat. Great song, great record. »
9/ Tim Hecker – No drums
« Just started listening to this composer recently and am becoming a big fan. »
