Yes, you read that right. I’ve decided to make a little mix tape for you today, valued reader, because I love each one of you so, so much. Thank you for coming here and reading my writing and listening to the music I recommend. I know some of it sucks (the writing and the music) but a lot of you have continued to support the site. So it is with a very full heart that I express my deepest (and most erotic) love for you. Please enjoy the tunes. For old time’s sake, here are the “rules” for previous Sunday Mix Tapes, which (if you’re new here) used to be a staple of this website back when I gave a shit.
PS – Yeah, I know it’s Thursday. Fuck you!
RULES for uninitiated noobs (not that it matters anymore!): 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. 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.
