Monthly Mix: April 2008

So as some may have noticed, there haven’t been very many updates over the past few days. I apologize for that. I’ve been busier with work. The sad truth of the matter is that sleep outweighs updating when I get home at night. But anyway, enough excuses. I don’t expect the updates to be as infrequent over the next few days, so that’s good. I am kicking off this week with the already past due monthly mix for April. As always with the mixes, the artist names are linked to a place of purchase where applicable. So if there is anything that peaks your interest, then definitely pick up an album or two. Enjoy.

Monthly Mix: March 2008

I meant to have this up earlier, but my schedule for sleep has been a bit weird lately. In other words I took what was supposed to be a small nap the other night and then ended up sleeping for about three hours. Anyway, I don’t expect that to change for the next couple weeks or so. Updates will obviously still come, but maybe at odd and sporadic times. I have some pretty good stuff lined up for the next few entries. With that, I present to everyone the monthly mix for March.

Monthly Mix: February 2008

Capping off the end of the week is this month’s mix. I like it when it works out that the month ends on a Friday so these can actually go up on the final day of the month. Just seems appropriate although it really doesn’t matter at all and I am sure it matters even less to everyone out there, ha. Anyway, I don’t really know how to explain this mix other than it’s kind of odd. Don’t know why really, just felt different putting it together. Hope everyone enjoys it though. As always, the artist names are linked to a place of purchase where applicable. So that means if you dig the tunes then please click that handy link and buy something by the band/artist. With that said, enjoy the mix and I’ll be back Monday with regular updating again.

Monthly Mix: January 2008

It’s Friday, it’s the end or the very start of a new month. So you know what that means right? Yes, calm yourselves...it is monthly mix time. It is number 38 to be exact. Anyway, this month is a bit of a noisy affair. Not a whole lot of newer material catching my interest so this month’s mix has a bit more of a classic flavor to it…classic and possibly hard on the ears. As always though, do pick up the physical album if any of the tunes on the mix spark your interest in any way. I’ve linked the artist names to a place of purchase where applicable. So with that, enjoy the tunes and I’ll be back next week.

Monthly Mix: October 2007

First and foremost, sorry to everyone that’s been visiting the blog expecting updates. I meant to do more than a couple this week, but then I came down with a nasty cold/fever late Tuesday night and it pretty much relegated me to just lying on my bed for the next couple days. I absolutely hate colds, especially when it includes a sore throat. Anyway, I am better now for the most part and hopefully I’ll be able to get back in the routine come Monday.

One order of business that I can take care of tonight is put up the monthly mix that is now a couple days late due my awesome cold. It’s about half and half of old and new favorites. As always with the mixes, the artist names are linked to place of purchase where applicable. So, if you enjoy the song be sure to go out and grab the album if possible.

Monthly Mix: July 2007

I had planned on updating quite a bit earlier today; however thanks to a small internet outage from my wonderful cable company Mediacom I wasn’t able to do so. I have reason to believe that our cable system out here is made out of nothing but twigs, string, and some duct tape. Regardless, it’s back up and running and I have this months mix to present to everyone out there. As always, please support the artists wherever possible. All the artist names link directly to a place of purchase, wherever applicable. Everyone have a good weekend!

Monthly Mix: June

Here is the monthly mix for June, albeit a bit late. I completely didn’t realize that Friday was the last update I would be doing in June, had I’d been paying attention to the world around me I would have had this up Friday instead of sometime today. Regardless, it’s only a bit late. As I was messing with the tags for the songs in the mix I realized that there are two songs with the number 73 included in it. I found that pretty odd since I honestly didn’t do that on purpose. This months mix is a little bit less noisy than some of the previous ones, more straight ahead rock with just a little bit of twists thrown in. Anyway, check it out and as always band names are linked to a place of purchase where applicable. Support the artists by picking up the album if you’re into it.

01 – Amusement Parks on Fire – A Star is Born

...And Then I Realized My Shoes Were Untied

I've been putting this together little by little for the past couple months or so. Although it is probably nowhere near definitive by any means, I would like to think it compiles some of the more notable shoegaze acts from the late 80's to the mid 90's. For newcomers, I hope it can maybe serve as a nice starting point. Some might notice there is a "vol. 1" attached to the folder name. That is because in time I hope to expand on this and possibly create mixes for the current bands and all the wonderful Japanese bands as well. So in total, I hope to have this be 3 volumes down the line.

Anyway, for Friday I present to you ...And Then I Realized My Shoes Were Untied (A Shoegaze Compilation). It's 2 discs/folders, however you want to look at it. Enjoy!
