Mixtape Of The Year

[Guest]

We have had tracks and albums, but for no better reason than one of my friends is studying in Sweden and hasn't heard much new music, I made a mixtape of what I have been listening to most this year, mostly new stuff, but anything new I got into. Fairly pointless, but it kept me amused . Anyways, here is the tracklisting.

1. Eels - Hey Man (Now You're Really Living)

2. Guillemots - Made Up Love Song #43

3. Foreign Born - We Had Pleasure

4. Editors - Blood

5. Madonna - Hung Up

6. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - The Skin Of My Yellow Country Teeth

7. Nine Black Alps - Not Everyone

8. Lightning Bolt - Dracula Mountain

9. System Of A Down - B.Y.O.B.

10. Wayne County & The Elctric Chairs - Fuck Off

11. St. Germain - Montego Bay Spleen

12. Sigur Ros - Hoppipolla

13. The Mars Volta - L'Via L'Viaquez

14. Dangerdoom - The Mask

What do you guys think? I tried to give it some kind of flow but it is quite varied so I found it reasonably difficult.

I was thinking about starting a 'What's your mix tape of the year?' thread.

I'll come up with a list later (when I'm less pissed - like, probably tomorrow).

Yeah, listening to this through on itunes and it works unbelievably well. The segue from Fuck Off to Montego Bay is beautiful. Starts offa bit to indie and fey, but I am pleased with the build up to the heaviness at least.

What's the odds that nobody in this thread has even touched one of these:

I still play my tapes, especially the ones with the Richie Hawtin mixes on

You should have put it in next month's mix club! I'm doing a best of 05 CD next month... It includes at least one song that is on your list!

I might very well, but will obviously change it a bit so as not to ruin surprises. A few silly omissions by me as well now I think about it.
