’Losing My Edge’. Spilleliste.

Verden over, eksisterer der helt sikkert et utal af playlister, der ligner nedenstående. Inspireret af et gammelt nummer af musikmagasinet ’Uncut’, har jeg sat en iTunes-spilleliste sammen af de artister og grupper, som James Murphy remser op på LCD Soundsystems ’Losing My Edge’ fra 2002. Jeg har ikke dem alle 54, men føler mig alligevel meget godt dækket ind. Vel at mærke, af musikreferencer, der gav creds i New York City for ti år siden. Flere af dem er vistnok stadigvæk gangbare.
