This week we'll log on to the tunes about technology.
Whether you love the convenience it brings, or hate it for destroying the sincerity of analog, you've got to admit that it'll be hard to imagine life without it.
Let's start with electronica...
"RICH GIRLS" - THE VIRGINS (THE TWELVES REMIX)
very daft punk/justice like...

ADT, or Automatic Double Tracking, was invented for this album. read more about it here http://www.mentalfloss.com/
the soundscape maestros
"KID A" - RADIOHEAD
A song about cloning and the possibilities & dangers of technology.
"DIGITIALISM" - POGO
and this one sounds like robots communicating and farting at the same time

Blue Monday - New Order

Mario Piu - Communication (Somebody Answer The Phone)
Love the sample at the heart of this. To quote one of the comments, 'Very freek song. Love it'
More a techy song than a song about tech. I call the 12" vinyl, played through headphones at volume setting '11', the 'tinnitus mix'
History Repeating - The Propellorheads & Ms Shirley Bassey
Well propellorheads are techy, right? Any excuse to link this track, compete with hokey video...

Crazy Spanish guy who’s show involves taking his clothes off and jumping around with a gameboy.
