We're big fans of challenges here at dcpierson.com. Maybe it's the principal of creative limitation, which says that having guidelines and limitations actually forces us to get MORE creative, or maybe it's just that I'm fucking lazy. To combine my love of challenges with my inherent slothfulness, I'm laying a new one on the table that requires nothing from me except picking a bunch of songs I like. I have picked 21 songs. I have sent them all to Donald. At my New York 21st birthday party (I will have been 21 like forever at that point, but I like to drink with friends, so...) he will present me with a DJ mix using all the songs and whatever the fuck else he wants to throw on there.
The tracks are:
"Go," Common
"Woman King" Iron & Wine
"There It Go (The Whistle Song)" Juelz Santana
"Wicked Little Town (Hedwig version)" Hedwig and The Angry Inch
"I'm Still In Love With You," Al Green
"1 Thing," Amerie
"Me Plus One," Annie
"I'm Still Your Fag," Broken Social Scene
"Oh I think They Like Me," Dem Franchise Boyz
"Oragami Cranes," Emilyn Brodsky
"Crosses," José Gonzalez
"Let's Run," Le Tigre
"Something's Going On," Lambchop
"Flossin'," Mike Jones
"Bigmouth Strikes Again," The Smiths
"Rad," Smoosh
"Go Crazy,"Young Jeezy
"On & On," Missy Elliot
"Paul Simon," The Russian Futurists
"One More Chance (remix)" Notorious B.I.G.
"Twilight" Elliott Smith
I'll post some mp3s every day...I'd post 'em all at once but I'm not flossing that kind of bandwith.
Now let's go get drunk and kissed!
