Green Eggs and Ham: Beats of 2011

Sometimes I get ideas and, even though they don't seem like they will, somehow they work out. Take this week's show: I wanted to make a 2-hour mix compiling some of my favourite tracks to dance to this year and turn it into a radio show. The thing about the show is that it features interruptions: commercial breaks, the weather and my blather. It shouldn't work. It worked. Here's the playlist:




Miracle Fortress - "Tracers"
Karen O, Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross - "Immigrant Song"
Das Racist - "Girl" 
Toro Y Moi - "New Beat" (Star Slinger remix)
tUnE-yArDs - "Gangsta" (Ad-Rock remix)
Dillon Francis - "Masta Blasta"
The Count & Sinden - "After Dark" (Krystal Klear remix)
Cut Copy - "Blink And You'll Miss A Revolution"
Neon Indian - "Polish Girl"
Tycho - "Hours"
Holy Ghost! - "It's Not Over"
Purity Ring - "Belispeak"
M83 - "Midnight City"
Active Child - "High Priestess"
BRAIDS - "Plath Heart" (Morgan Greenwood remix)
Junior Boys - "Itchy Fingers"
Grimes - "Oblivion"
Daft Punk - "Encom Part 2" (Com Truise remix)
Born Gold - "Lawn Knives"
"Weird" Al Yankovic - "Perform This Way"
      *this week's Slice Of Cheese
Handsome Furs - "Repatriated"
Young Galaxy - "We Have Everything"
Austra - "The Villain"
Four Tet - "Locked"
Radiohead - "Lotus Flower"
