Monty's Catch of the Day on 101X = Underworld - "denver luna (acapella)". Underworld is one of my all time favorite bands and in my eyes they do little wrong. They just released a new single, which comes in an acapella version that's a little over 2 minutes long & a full electronic banger that clocks in at over 8 minutes. Both are brilliant and I plan on playing both versions in the next several weeks. You can listen to them here

Monty's Catch of the Day 101X 101X = Sufjan Stevens - "So You Are Tired". This will be on his upcoming 10th (completely solo) album, "Javelin", which is due out on October 6th.
