In case my earlier Faye Wong selection came off as a little odd. . . Here's one I think more people can agree with. Perhaps my favorite early Dylan song: Boots of Spanish Leather. Just beautiful. Or this, perhaps an even more obvious choice.

This! Seriously, it's so good.

Don't know if y'all saw this. Pitchfork's take on things: Heath Ledger/Nick Drake

Cranberries - No Need to Argue (don't make fun, I know it's cheese) Moby - Everything is Wrong (again, don't make fun) Beach Boys - Surf's Up A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders and because all my others are so freakishly well known St. Christopher - All of a tremble

Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart

I posted the mix, check the first post. I changed the tracklisting a little bit...not much though. Added some Boyracer by popular demand (sort of). Then after adding the Boyracer I realized that it sounded really out of place with the other tracks so I added some rougher tracks to make it feel more at home. I've eaten my previous comment that I didn't like Boyracer, though I'm not quite sure if it's digested yet. It's an alright song. It was sort of an important song in the history of the label at least, which is something considering this is mostly a didactic mix, though I do love all o

I only have a few Boyracer songs that I had downloaded some time ago and I really don't like any of them. I have 'I've got it and it's not worth having' and 'He get's me so hard'. I didn't enjoy either of those. I don't know much of anything about the park besides that song. It just seemed to fit in with the Sarah Compilations that the actual label had released to name the thing after a park. But it looks like a pretty place from the pictures I've seen.

If anyone is interested, I just made a Sarah Records compilation for a friend that I thought some of you might want to a. see the tracklisting or b. download it because you are unfamiliar with the label. I guess you either love or hate this label but I've always kinda loved it. Just some good pop music. And the politics of the label were pretty cool too. Seeing as Matt Haynes is kinda reluctant to reissue stuff (besides the recent Field Mice/Orchids/Heavenly re-releases) I don't see any of this being made easily available anytime soon. All of the songs come from the label's 7" releases.

Tiger Trap was an all girl band (I think) that included Rose Melberg (who was also in the Softies and Go Sailor) that kicked all sorts of ass for a very short period of time. They only had one full release that was self titled and came out in '93. It's amazingly good. If you can find it, it's definitely worth the effort. Other than that I think they had a single or two or maybe an ep. Good stuff though.

Nice mix, the Roots song is a favorite. I love the intros you always throw onto your mixes. This is also the first Thievery Corporation song I've seen on a mix that wasn't Lebanese Blonde (for it's inclusion in Garden State). Look forward to puting this mix on whenever I need to listen to something other than guitar oriented indie pop (which I really do love). It should fill the void nicely that was previously filled by your Roof mix (which I enjoyed).

Friedman says he'd legalize pot in Texas

Cool, hope you enjoy it. It might take a little getting used to as most of the songs don't have incredible sound quality becuase of somewhat lo-fi recordings, but they're all pretty solid pop songs. I've found that if the volume is up loud enough for the first track, the Courtney Love (the band, not the OTHER Courtney Love) track that follows doesn't sound quite as soft. The Heavenly track that closes it off is amazingly good.

I'm just gonna post it. It's not a really specific theme, but the mix is made up of some good indie pop songs from around the early 90's. Most of them having something to do with some sort of relationship frustration. But didn't every indie pop song from the 90's deal with that? I've really been getting into this era of music recently. There is some volume difference between songs, the most jarring being between the first and second track, but I'm not really sure how to fix this. I didn't feel like making cover artwork etc. but I sorta whipped up a picture real quick. It's not the corre

I have a mix ready...should I wait to post it? Are we doing partners?

I'll make one.

Well, I just downloaded it. Made a few searches and. . . I'm freakishly excited! This is unbelievable!

Is this program going to fuck up my computer? I've been looking for some music that is impossible to find so I figured why not get some file sharing software. It looks pretty safe.

Heavenly - P.U.N.K. Girl Tiger Trap - S/T

I'm not sure if this is against the rules on this board...but I'm gonna ask anyway. I've been looking all over the internet for either 'I'm in love with a girl who doesn't know I exist' or 'you should all be murdered' by Another Sunny Day, and seeing as all I have come by in my multi hour conquest is expired mp3 blog links I figured I'd ask here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok, I've had my ipod for about a month now and everything is going fine. However, recently (today) I added some songs onto it that aren't being registered in the artist section. I have to either find the album or the song. This is sort of annoying so I was wondering if any of you tech savy via chicagoans could help me out. Weird bug?

I don't know how many of y'all enjoyed the first one (I love it) but I've been listening to the new one for about a week now and its even better! Really great stuff. I just wish I was cool enough to have heard all these songs originally because it's my first time to here many of the songs (minus the ones everybody has heard...).

I thought about getting that the other day, but luckily I didn't go through with it.

But this one is clearly the best Natalie Portman picture:
