New York Fashion Week is upon us, so, for our TGIF playlist this week it was only apt that we turn towards some of the cities most swooned-over bands. DISCLAIMER: MGMT wasn’t formed in New York (Connecticut, apparently) but, due to their famous affiliations with the city, we thought you’d let us have it. We don’t want any lies between us. So, here’s a sprinkling of greats from a number of different periods which should kick off your weekend the way it means to continue. Hotter than a night at the original Studio 54 (wild!). So DIIV in (sorry) and transport yourself Stateside…
1. Talking Heads – This Must Be The Place
2. Velvet Underground – Pale Blue Eyes
3. A Tribe Called Quest – Check The Rhime
4. MGMT – Weekend Wars
5. DIIV – Doused
6. Patti Smith – Gloria
7. Animal Collective – Daily Routine (Phaseone Remix)
8. LCD Soundsystem – Dance Yourself Clean
9. New York Dolls – Trash
10. Ramones – Beat On The Brat
