Oh boy, Sunday Mix Tape makes it’s triumphant return tonight after it’s first week-off in almost two years! Do you know how hard that was for me to do? I did not get any sleep last Sunday. I was sobbing uncontrollably about how I had no new music to share with my readers, and for the first time I felt like I let you all down. Actually, that’s not true, I cry every single day because I continually let you down with my complete inability to pen anything remotely worth your time.
Last night was super fun. A nice group of people — myself included, of course — went to Elf. We ate and drank and were quite merry. Peaches was there! Vincent Gallo, too! Fuck that guy! He’s a tool!
Here’s the music!
RULES for uninitiated noobs: With 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods or Zunes or Kingklangs or whatever the industry is currently pushing on you. Sometimes there will be themes that link all the songs together, other times I’ll just throw songs at a wall (not literally) and see what sticks. This week I’m stepping away from the annoying glacier-slow drone music (except for the first track) and the wild psychedelic rock music, and focusing on some electronic and hip-hop. I feel like I only get to share some of my interests with you here, and I don’t want you to get the impression that I hate synthesizers and African Americans, because that’s definitely not true. I love every genre of music, even the really shitty ones. That’s why I put a Belle And Sebastian song on this mix — because I HATE Belle And Sebastian! So, so much, I can’t even describe it. I had to include a Frogs song. Because Belle And Sebastian make the Frogs sound straight. As always, these songs will be removed if desired by the band or those who represent them. Let me know and I will gladly comply. The goal of this endeavor, as always, is to pique your interest in these artists so you’ll support the artists and buy their albums.
