mini-mix download

this was my dorm room sophomore year of college circa 2009 hahahahaha

we've finally gotten some nice weather around these parts again!  (ok well, not really nice weather... kind of a damp swampy 90 degrees, but i'm just thankful for a bit of heat since this summer has been colder than i like.  i really don't know what we're doing up so far north these days.)

otherwise we are just trying to catch our breath for a moment and finish putting away all the crap in boxes before ann arbor wakes up for football season.

i hope i get a chance to blog a bit more about all the madness happening around here down the road a bit, but for now here's a mini-mix you are welcome to download, with love from me:

filthy gorgeous - scissor sisters

island song - ashley ericksson

les os - the unicorns

be sure to right click save target as the link in the box that says "click here to start download from sendspace" other download buttons are spam ads.

do you like excellent music?

if you like excellent music, today is your lucky day.

when my sister was in high school she dated the most ultimate super extra hipster guy who introduced me to the likes of radiohead, pinback, neutral milk hotel, and one of my forever favorite bands belle & sebastian.

since those days long gone (i'm pretty sure i was in eighth grade at the time?) i have become a devout indie music snob guru, and i really owe it to david.  

i crossed out snob because i'm pretty sure you can't be an indie music snob and like nicki minaj as much as i am ashamed to admit i do.  i've also noticed that working a full time job really cuts in to the time you can spend hunting down obscure music, so i've been digging on a lot of familiar oldies lately.

i have always loved making music mixes, so for any of the few readers of this blog who are interested, i would love to share a little of what i've been listening to most lately.   it is available to download here.
