the record of the week: department of corrections by deerhoof

Dirty Soup founder Raife Burchell’s record of the week is Department of Corrections by Deerhoof.

Raife says - “Deerhoof sure are prolific! They’ve released a whopping 18 albums since forming in San Francisco in 1994. I got into them when a producer pal of mine in Berlin played me their infectious cover of The Staples Singers' Freedom Highway. I’m really into their new single. It's totally in keeping with their distinctive sugary experimental pop weirdness. Make sure you download it and look out for the full album release on October 22nd.”

DIRTY MONDAY... FT LILA CALDWELL

Today’s Dirty Monday comes from Dirty Soup music researcher, Lila Caldwell - the tunes that soundtracked her childhood.

Lila says - “Luckily for me, my family are all massive music lovers so I was inadvertently listening to every possible genre of music since I was a baby. These are the tracks that were played on long car journeys and while the family dinners were being cooked. The comfort I feel listening to each of these tracks (even Windowlicker!) seems to be woven into my DNA. They're a huge part of why I love music so much - hope you enjoy them as much as I do.”

THE RECORD OF THE WEEK: HOTEL SURRENDER BY CHET FAKER

Dirty Soup founder Raife Burchell's record of the week is Hotel Surrender by Chet Faker.

Raife says: Dirty Soup’s first big track placement was Chet Faker's enchanting cover of No Diggity. We placed it in a Beck's Sapphire Super Bowl spot a few months after I started the company. Jeez, that was a fun phone call to get! Chet aka Nick Murphy has hooked me in again from the get-go with his latest self-produced, self-written 10-track album. First line of the first track - "Music does something, I just don’t know what it does. Just accept it as the sky is blue”. Thanks for the timely reminder Chet!
