MP3: Skudge - Phantom
It's finally bright/warm/dry enough here in the PacNW for me to head out the door at 5:30am and take a good, long run through the woods, so today that's exactly what I did. It was absolutely perfect out and when this tune came up on my mp3 player I was in bliss as it just fit so well into my morning/routine/life. Since I am no techno head by any stretch of the imagination, I only checked Skudge out after they walked away with the P3 Guld over the much more obviously well-known Swedish House Mafia and, on doing so, fully understood that the jury made the right decision. Maybe it's just me, but I love the sort of stuff like this that sounds so simple on the surface, yet is so incredibly engrossing.
