“..near me, touch me, feel me”

That’s an invitation ladies!

Seriously, not many songs start with this much intensity.

Listen to the synth lift up at :25

The drums are shit hot.

Saw her on SNL and “cough” Ellen and this song kills..

Track of the year, give her a grammy for this one.

0018 Squarepusher – Love will tear us apart @ 2:44

This is a cover of the Joy Division classic, but I’ve only got an mp3 of this version on the comp, so I listen to this way more. I think he’s only really layering with some more drums, but it sounds awesome.

There’s a part at the end, where a new sample comes in, and I’ve always wondered what it was. I think I figured it out. It’s the song Then He Kissed me by a group called The Crystals. You’ll recognize it right away.

So watch the video first, and then play the clip (it’s 18 seconds in.) Am I right? Hit me with some comments.
