Okay, so I'm making a compilation/playlist of tracks which evokes the mood of the big city at night - say from 10pm to 5am. Cold sodium streetlamps and blank concrete plains. "The city is a woman, bigger than any other, oh, sophisticated lady, yeah, I wanna be your lover" (Pulp). Closed shops. Staring out on the cityscape in the hope you will see the one you love. Nothing making sense. Wandering about aimlessly after closing time, but not wanting to go home. Going to sleep as the night fades into day.

If that doesn't mean anything, the sort of thing I've got so far is:

Richard X - Just Friends
Gus Gus - David
Gary Numan - Films
Basement Jaxx - Miracles Keep On Playin'
Blondie - Fade Away And Radiate
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Modern Romance
The Smiths - I Know It's Over
The Clash - Straight To Hell
Lou Reed - Satellite Of Love
Razorlight - Stumble And Fall
Fischerspooner - The 15th
Royksopp - Remind Me
Ladytron - CSKA Sofia
Underworld - Skym
Orbital - Funny Break
Basement Jaxx - Romeo (Acoustic)
 
Seriously dude,

Team Sleep - "The passportal" (matrix reloaded soundtrack)
 
GOOD song, did strange things to my head when listening on earphones!
