Mixtape madness
Muxtape, like mixtapes of yore, a good way to discover new music. Here’s mine, featuring a portion of one of my iTunes playlists. The current playlist:
- The National — 90-Mile Water Wall
- Black Rebel Motorcycle Club — Ain’t No Easy Way
- The Killers — When You Were Young
- MGMT — Time to Pretend
- Reverend and the Makers — Heavyweight Champion of the World
- Justice — D.A.N.C.E. (Mstrkrft Remix)
- Tiga — Louder Than A Bomb
- Kanye West — Stronger
- Hot Chip — Over And Over
- Tokyo Police Club — Nature of the Experiment
- Of Montreal — Gronlandic Edit
- Okkervil River — Our Life Is Not a Movie or Maybe
This would also be a good place to mention the mixes over at Yewknee, some of my favourites. Drop a comment if you’ve got one to listen to, I’m always up for discovering new music.
