Guest DJ Set 11-30-07

LCD Soundsystem made it on to many of our end of year Top 10's with the Sound of Silver.
This mix only just came out on cd and is officially considered to be a single, remember the album is dead! It was originally commissioned by Nike to be a workout mix and was only available on iTunes, go out for a run withya buds in and see if it works! LCD have been touring the world this year with Arcade Fire but just had to cancel a festival performance in Mexico, keep up with their expeditions here.
James Murphy, the man behind LCD, has also just done a Fabric mix. 'fabriclive 36', but I wanted to feature this instead because, as we have discussed on Musicheads before, I think there's a special significance to the length of this set. 45 minutes seems to be a 'good length' for a period of concentration, exertion, enjoyment, anything really, that's why so many great albums are that long, soccer halfs, american football periods (when you include the commercials), the useful time of an hour long meeting or an exercise regime. I believe it's biologically imprinted on us and everything would be better with the world if we split everything we do into 45 sections, try it.
