You're a shark and I'm swimming
My heart still thumps as I bleed
And all your friends come sniffing
Triangles are my favorite shape
Three points where two lines meet
Toe to toe, back to back, let's go, my love it's very late
'Til moming comes, let's tessellate
Go alone my flower
And keep my whole lovely you
Wild green stones alone my lover
And keep us on my heart
Three guns and one goes off
One's empty, one's not quick enough
One bum, one red, one grin
Search the graves while the camera spins
Chunks of you will sink down to seals
Blubber rich in mouming, they'll nosh you up
Yes, they'll nosh the love away but it's fair to say
You will still haunt me
Triangles are my favorite shape
Three points where two lines meet
Toe to toe, back to back, let's go my love it's very late
'Til moming comes, let's tessellate

My favorite cut from a great album.
A funny story: Because, thanks to RP, I've been an Alt-J fan for years and likewise my 18-year old son has been a super lucky kid and gotten to hear them for all those years too thanks to my being in control of the stereo (when I'm home). For quite a while, he wasn't too impressed with Alt-J, and then about a year ago he came home from school one day and sought out my Alt-J disc — turns out his homies are all hip to Alt-J, and now so is he and he's unleashing some of their other cuts on them!
Long live RP; your mission to spread the sweet sounds must carry on!
Similarly, my daughter, unbeknownst to me, became a huge Alt-J fan (as am I). So who better for her very first concert?! They were awesome live, and she was thrilled.
Wow - I don't think I can find the usual negative comment on here about this being unlistenable and the standard request for "more Bob Dylan" or whatever. How refreshing - shows what a great song this really is!
i tried to resist, i really did, but....

I've now associated this song w/ the kid jammin'. Hilarious and makes my day. It's the little things in life, they say.
Yeah.... this is a groover.
I try to time turning up the volume the very first time the chorus kicks in.
Rarely miss it so I'm rarely disappointed.
oh... and... I LOVE RP for introducing alt-J to me. But that's another story entirely. :-)
I Agree on both counts!

When I listen to college radio, it's like when I eat a bowl of Fruit Loops. It tastes super great for a bit, and I'm like, Why did I ever stop eating Fruit Loops? But, lo and behold, before the box is done I am dumping it into the waste basket. Its flavor lasts about two bowls. That's college radio.
We grow old without noticing sometimes.

now my eyes as well as my ears are Tessellating

I grew quite fond of Alt-j; they became one of the musicians I regularly listen to with great pleasure thanks to your beautiful selection of their best works of music and 'Tessallate' is surely highly placed amongst them due to the balance of it's intense maturity and liveliness.
I also have to give great credit to 'Broadbandits Afro mix', the remix took an already beautifully written song to another level. A 'Rock'n Roll On!' type of level :)
A nice 10 from me obviously; to you, to Radio Paradise and to Alt-J.
With love from,
- Kadıköy / İstanbul, 2022 - 10th of July

I'm an old guy - 50's - and I just love this.
Sure, it's got that 2010's sound all over it and that's no bad thing.
But it's ORIGINAL - the mix brings in elements from all over the place, which is the hallmark of an original artist. To magpie what is happening in music present and past.
It almost gives me that back of the neck hair raise thing, which to me, is like ... the ultimate. It either hits the belly, or the hairs on your neck - if it hits both, well, that's God like. This isn't there ... but...
Very powerful, very clever.
Really good song, really overplayed.
All the better to make you sick of this song.

This broadbandits Afro mix version of the song is fantastic, and I couldn’t find it on Apple Music because they don’t have this broadbandits Afro remix version. Thanks for sharing this!

I prefer this version, but I can't find it anywhere to purchase - any suggestions ?
Try Discogs -- they're a very reliable source for hard-to-find recordings. Also very cool folks operating the controls.

Alt-F4
So salty
I *LOVE* all the geeky references to computer graphics. "Triangles are my favorite shape"... "Let's tesselate".
Oh F yeah (thanks for making this song more well-rounded for me)

Desde el 2077 ? ya estoy viejo yo pensaba que Alt J eran como los super nuevo.

There is a link to buy the song on the title page; If you're PRIME, its free to stream or deep dive into the album.
But why would you need to? Bill will get around to it again soon enough with a lot of other choice stuff in between.
'Til moming comes, let's tessellate"
Hell yeah, let's do it!!!

That is a puzzle.

I didn't even know it could be a noun. According to the Oracle, that's a British usage.
Be very very careful with current usage of this word........
I had not caught that but now that is all I can hear. Tom Wilson, with Junkhouse and all his others bands/ solo is one of those Canadian treasures!
Okay, Garyalex, I was grinning at your post and saw NoisyMiner seemed to know something I didn't. I Googled.... A tessellation is a real thing!
an arrangement of shapes closely fitted together, especially of polygons in a repeated pattern without gaps or overlapping.
I'm sure we've all tessellated a time or two in our lives....
Who doesn't get up to a bit of late night tiling?
This is my favorite version of this song. I was disappointed it wasn't on their album. The album version is okay, but not as fabulous as this. So glad we get to hear it here.

I really like this track, thanks for playing it!!
