What was that one time when a song came on at exactly the right moment to match what was happening around you or to you just then?

    At a buddy’s wedding. Said buddy had endured college years in my car with my one mix CD, which included the classic “Call On Me” that he’d heard so many times it had become a running joke - and which one night when he was out switching his laundry, he heard in the distance at surreal volume and realized that there was an apartment close to us that was blasting it, just as I happened to be walking from that direction (and jamming to it).

    Well, of course, it started blasting at his wedding twelve years later, and we went mad - I gave him props, and he said he didn’t ask for it, the DJ just picked the right jam. Was a great moment.

        Damned if I went looking for it and couldn’t find it. I’ve since lent it to an intern, put it in a funny place, moved twice, wasn’t anywhere I hoped.

        In any case, I’ll try to recreate what I remember of “What I Heard 1.0”:

        • Daft Punk - One More Time
        • Kavinsky - Nightcall
        • Benny Bennassi - E.T remix
        • Madeon - Yelle Que Veux Tu remix
        • Eric Prydz - Call On Me
        • Lemaitre - Blue Shift
        • Digitalism - Blitz
        • Justice - D. A. N. C. E
        • Duck Sauce - Barbra Streisand but a remix that said “Adam Jensen” which I can’t find :(
        • Digitalism - Circles
        • Daft Punk - Digital Love
        • Studio Killers - Ode to the Bouncer

        YouTube playlist here!!

        There is one missing track here as far as I remember - a Benny Bennasi bomb that I’ve looked for many times over the years, but haven’t found. And I’ve listened to a lot of Benny Benassi :(. Hopefully the CD shows up one day!

        Edit: added nightcall, remembered I had that on there!

          Can’t say I’ve ever listened to any of these before but I also feel the frustration for Call on Me now from your roommate hahaha.

          Great playlist.
