Before you go and shoot your load, you better know your hanky code

Hanky Code-Peaches

Is there a list for the gayest songs ever? This is most certainly on it. Its possibly the gayest thing Peaches has done. And for the Jewish Canadian bisexual feminist rapper, that's saying a whole hell of a lot. I am surprised this didn't make the actual CD and ended up a B-side...how does she determine that exactly...i mean, how did this song not make it on there. In any event, i think she is one of the more fun and interesting artists out there...most of the time, i think her attempts at subversiveness work. No surprisingly, this ode to leather men and the different meanings attached to the hankies is hilarious. I kinda wanted to hear her describe more of the act attached to aqua, violet, black etc etc. But no matter...props for even coming up with this song. This is off the "Downtown" single i believe...which is also includes the wicked Simian Mobile Disco mix of "Downtown". Favorite lyric: If you're wearing black on the right, then you know you're gonna hurt tonight. Didn't Madonna spend her entire career trying to come up with something like that. No, wait, Madonna is good at taking subversive and making it mainstream. Peaches is good at making subversive fun and poppy.

Revelee-Delia Gonzalez & Gavin Russom (Carl Craig Remix)

Off of the DFA label...but not punk-funk.....actually i am not sure what the original sounds like. No matter. This is sublime intricate techno...it sounds like it could be from anytime in history. Driving yet not trancey...hypnotic as all get-out. Honestly, if this song dropped onto a sweaty dark dance floor at 2 a.m., you'd feel fucking high. Whether you were or not. Brilliant.
