I think I'll wrap up the color themed mixes here. I'm sure I could put together a few pretty wicked mixes based on Black, Green, Pink etc, but sometimes, you have to draw the line somewhere. Not to speak of sticking to the thin tricolore theme.

If you like this, check out the Red Tape and the Blue Tape as well. They be wicked.

tracklist

1 Camille : La jeune fille aux cheveux blancs
For some reason, it didn't occur to me to look for music in other languages than English, but on a mix inspired by a trilogy of French films, it would be a shame to not have at least one song in the beautiful language.

3 Curve : My Tiled White Floor
I'm spellbound by Halliday's voice, yet I can't for the life of me recall what the song is about. White tiled floors? What the hell? Not that I care, really. There is a connection to the previous track, too, as Halliday has been a guest vocalist with Recoil in the past.

4 Iron and Wine : White Tooth Man
White haired woman (track 1), white tooth man. I dig the symmetry. Had the songs been more similar I would have put them next to each other.

9 Borås Energi : White Stiletto Mecca
I am on a mission to teach the world about Borås Energi (which is from Gothenburg, not Borås). Their unique instrumentation (drums, bass guitar, and oh, another bass guitar) creates some funky music which really defies description (I've heard people try calling it industrial, punk, but "experimental" is most fair).

11 The Slack Republic : Black & White
The Slack Republic went separate ways after a tour and an EP - a shame, because they were really promising. The EP can be downloaded free on last.fm, for those who care.

12 Junior Senior : White Trash
Junior Senior never sounded so..raw. I guess they're more known for dance beats like "Move Your Feet", but this is in hardcore territory (with all due respect for "real" hardcore bands).

14 Blur : Me, White Noise (alternate version)
I thought Damon Albarn created Gorillaz because he couldn't do everything he wanted creatively with Blur. Then I hear tracks like this and get all confused.

15 Tim Hecker : Whitecaps of White Noise II
I know very little about mr Tim Hecker, but if he's not making soundtracks to bleak films about big concrete cities, there's something wrong. An amazing ability to turn ugly noises into beautiful music.
