Friday Mixtape Volume 101
Jamie Kohns on January 5th, 2007
First mixtape of the new year- I'm calling it Volume 101 (second series, first week was the logic there). The cover image comes from flickr.com user laffy4k for it's noirish image of snow, which I miss a lot this year (it was 65 degrees outside today). I left everything in black and white, just 'cuz it felt like it should be. Anyway, this week should be the last week of having to use the primary hosting account for files- I've recently bought hosting space on squirrelfood.co.uk for future mixtapes and mp3s…yay!
It's been a short week with the holiday and all, and I've been swealtering in my new office that alwyas seems to be at least fifteen degrees warmer than the rest of the building, and since some asshole stole my phone last Friday, I've got a new Motorola Q to play with…what's all this about? Well, they ar emy exscuses for not really keeping up with music this week. I did, however, find time to clear out the old posts taht were sitting in my newsreader- posts on bands I didn't know, but didn't have time to listen to, so I just saved them. Thanks to these posts by various other music bloggers around the world, I have a mixtape this week. For each track on the list, I've included the link to the post from which it was found (except for that first track, which I liked better than the one Mark posted, but still found because of his post back in mid-December). Anyway, thanks to all the bloggers listed, and all the ones not listed as well, for their continuing contribution to my music discovery….
