Best of: Lucky 11 with Cameron from Architecture in Helsinki
While the year is racing to an end we thought we'd take a minute to reflect on some of the great times we've had, and some of the sounds that have inspired or soundtracked those times. We've asked around the Modular family for some of their reflections. This is what they've come back with.
Cameron from Architecture in Helsinki reviews his year in listening with "11 songs he's listened to at least 11 times in 2011." No small feat narrowing this list down, as the man himself said:
"Oh Boy! List Paralysis!"
But he came through with the goods, and there's some great listening in here.

Watch: Architecture in Helsinki - W.O.W
Architecture in Helsinki's latest video, directed by fellow Melbournites Krozm features the very same animatronic dolphins used in the late 90s, Jessica Alba-featuring, teenboy fantasy TV series 'Flipper'.
In the bands' words: "W.O.W acts as the soundtrack to a film about one man's quest to find answers, and in turn his place, in the natural universe. Somewhere along the line we convinced Cameron to make his acting debut, which involved him swimming fully clothed in freezing water for a whole day."
Architecture in Helsinki are heading off on the final US Tour in support of the ARIA-nominated (for Best Pop Release) Moment Bends next week, dates below.

This one is for the traveling types. The stay-away-from-home-forever kids. Suitcase living etc etc.
Twenty-six minutes of journeying, probably the soundtrack in AiH's tour van right now, as they zig-zag around the world.
Architecture In Helsinki are on a cusp of a huge European tour, with a full run of US shows planned for November as well. Full list of dates here.
