Sorry for the downtime. I’m working on it. Tired of hearing that? Then fuck off.

Love at first sight:
Robyn — Body Talk pt.1.
The National — High Violet
Delorean — Subiza

and a little single; Eminem — Not Afraid (from the upcoming Recovery album)

So long.

It’s Hot, it’s Hot Chip!

“New” Hot Chip album; “One Life Stand” and this day suddenly feels much more
fantastic. Just so you know.

An almost perfect duo

Those of you who haven’t heard about or doesn’t have any interest in
Johnossi, shame on you, you vultures. Took some time yesterday and
watched some videos on YouTube, from P3 Guld galan and I came across
a new song from Johnossi, fantastic. I love those dudes.

So here it is;

Did you say, Radiohead?

Robert Ekström — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 11:36:18 +0000

I might be late with this but I didn’t really know that Readiohead had
plans not to release anymore albums instead they are planning to just
release single tracks and EP’s. Well if this means I will be able to enjoy
new tracks by Radiohead more often, I’m satisfied. I’m one of those who
love everything made by Radiohead or at least that’s something I like to
think, they do on the other hand some pretty awesome music.
Here’s two new tracks from Radiohead, after the jump.

Radiohead — Harry Patch (In memory of) (Thanks to, We Listen For You)

Radiohead — These Are My Twisted Words (Mediafire)

My robots are in the land of music

I’m back for the three hundred forty seventh time and this time I will
not leave my thoughts outside DP, it’s time to kick some ass, time to show
myself what I’m capable of, ’cause it’s been years since I accomplished
anything worthy of celebration, anything worthy of good reviews. I feel
recharged, ready for new battles in life, lately I’ve been totally focused on
the wrong things. This is the new, no matter what I’ve said before, this is the
start of the new era, better later than never, right?

I’ve only got a few proposals on what people would like to see here on DP,
thank you, anyways I need more, I’m still waiting. While waiting I will have
to decide some things by myself, which is nothing to whine about.
You hopefully love music, at least I do, so music will be a more prominent theme
here on Donkey Punch! even though I might not have the time to be a pure
music blog I will do my best to update daily about new music, old music,
lovely music, well everything probably. I’ve written a few posts regarding new
music and I have to say it’s fun and interesting but it’s more work than anyone
can imagine, I admire those who have the energy to have a pure music blog,
for instance PMA, Broken Silence, Voules Random, Electrorash,
We All Want Someone To Shout For etc.

Oh, did you think I would desert my thoughts on everything else than music?
Of course not, are you stupid, I will never ever leave my thoughts unraveled.

The conchords flight

have to do it again, I love these guys. Ladies and Gentlemen, Flight of the Conchords.

The free things in life

Robert Ekström — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 09:10:34 +0000

Today I will take you to music land, it’s MP3 day so after the jump you can
enjoy some fresh, some old, some great Mp3’s. Have a nice time listening.

Miike Snow — Animal
I like Mike, with two ii’s, Miike, nice right?

The Killers — Joy Ride (Night Version)
A strange version of the fabulous Joy Ride, but
it kind of works. Go, Killers, Go Killers!

Jay-Z — Brooklyn Go Hard (Feat. Santogold)
Jay-Z and Santogold, nice, very nice. If it’s good? Well
listen and decide for yourselves.

Florence And The Machine — Dog Days Are Over
Never heard this before but it’s like-able, very like-able.
For more Florence And… head over here.

The Twelwes — Nightvision (Daft Punk Cover)
Being credited as a cover of Daft Punk’s Nightvision,
well Daft Punk’s version is only 1 minute and forty-five
seconds and The Twelwes version is almost five minutes.
So the more correct term would be remix but fuck that,
this is a cover, which is nice, nothing more than just nice.

Ratatat — Lex
Do I have to write anything? This isn’t Ratatat’s best track but
it’s Ratatat so who the fuck cares?

Sunset Rubdown — Idiot Heart
I think I like this. I think I like this. I like this.

Run Toto Run — Sleepyhead (Passion Pit Cover)
A sweet little thing!

Remember, “Right click, Save as”. All the download links are from
PMA so head over there, Pretty Much Amazing, to show some freakin’
support. Hell Yeah!

Are we, we?

Robert Ekström — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 16:56:06 +0000

You know, I need you all, right? Everybody has a part in this.
I’m not alone, we are one, we are many, we are this, we are that,
we are..

So I’m sorry for the silence the last few days, I haven’t been able to
put things on paper lately. My mind has been blocked from the outside.
Today I had a plan, as always plans are for pussies, so no more direct
planning, it goes very, very wrong every time. Have been listening to
“Brother in Arms” by Dire Straits very much lately, I just love the feeling.
The feeling of sadness, of joy, of brotherhood - it’s lovely.

I’ve had some suggestions from various people around the globe on
various subjects to take up, let’s put them in the subject-box and collect
some more, so please, just fire it up and suggest something, remember
it’s me and it’s you all. Sorry for the turbulence in this post, just felt like
I had to put something out, hopefully inspiration hits me in the dark hours
and some interesting stuff comes out of it.
