I made a new mix for The Bold Italic as part of their Mixtape Mondays section. It’s very bleak and depressing, but suits the Wintertime well (even though I don’t even think it’s even actually Winter yet). Suitably, I am writing this from bed because it was too cold to get out from under the blankets, let alone go to work. Try not to weep to hard and click on the link to listen over at the TBI website..

Winter Depression on The Bold Italic

Did another podcast with Hammer Head Shark Attack where we trade off songs and photos. I’m not sure why everyone doesn’t do this all the time – more mixetapes please! Also it’s Springtime and a Friday – did you know that? All of these things are the best news ever. See you on the rope swing!

A couple of mystery guests helped me compile this mix of super funky disco jams and since the weathers been real nice lately, it’s sort of been killing it. I swear to God, if you put this on during a sweaty house party at 3AM you will burn that motherfucker down. There is some cheesyish pop stuff at the beginning and then it switches up to the solid Chicago house predecessors at the end so everyone comes out a winner. Sometimes.. and only sometimes.. disco saves the day.

The guys at HOBO FM in Los Angeles were kind enough to ask me over for a guest podcast which went up today. If you have never checked them out go, over and take a look, their site is really original and they all have really good taste in music. I’m really excited to have anything to do with them..

Love is in the air.. all over the internet (is that gross?). TJDUCKETS just posted up a really great podcast of love songs over at Hamburger Eyes called I Love Love. Guaranteed to put you in a good mood no matter what the weather is like. Click here to go get it..

Marc Brierley – Vagabond of Sleep

Jay Howell made a mix over at The World’s Best Ever last month and I finally got a chance to give it a listen. It’s super good and while I was listening to it, the thought dawned on me that Jay will never ever run out of amazing old indie-rock songs (because he’s really old and owned them all on cassette). Anyways, click on the link above and get it for yourself or if that seems like too big of a deal for you, check out my three favorite songs below.

Kleenex Girl Wonder – Tendency Right Foot Forward
The Bats – Block of Wood
The Chills – Pink Frost

Bonus:
The Chills – Pink Frost live (video)
