Mux136: December 2013

Last mux of 2013 and, like all milestones, I just throw together whatever tracks sound good. And I swear I'm almost done with GTA V tracks. But they all happen to be quite good.

Yep.

2. Chvrches - Gun (The Bones of What You Believe)
3. Wavves - Nine Is God (The Music of Grand Theft Auto V)
4. Deerhunter - Back To The Middle (Monomania)
5. Future of the Left - French Lessons (How To Stop Your Brain In An Accident)
6. The National - I Need My Girl (Trouble Will Find Me) (For JET, as always)
7. Propellerheads - Take California (Decksanddrumsandrockandroll)
8. !!! - One Girl / One Boy (THR!!!ER) (For ECM, a !!! convert)
9. Baths - Miasma Sky (Obsidian)
10. Tame Impala - Keep On Lying (Lonerism)

Mux133: Shorties In Portie

Hoping my stolen internet can hold up long enough to upload this.

Boom.

So with my hard drive wiped I thought I lost my muxtapes pics. But, dur, I can just save them off an old file. But I already made a new crappy one without text because my wiped hard drive doesn't have the super-old version of Photoshop I use! If I had PS, the contrast would be jacked up about 1000% to make me look like Burial or some shit instead of a dude in his PDX apartment in a Dunder-Mifflin bathrobe because my office is above an uninsulated garage and I'm too cheap to turn on the heat until December.

ALSO: I got a laptop to replace my dying Dell, and while I did manage some black magic to transfer my playlists, of course a ton of data was lost. So I have to rebuild my mux library from scratch, e.g. the master source I use to determine if I've already had a song on a mux. Boring and technical, yes, but I played it safe and made something a bit crazy that I'm fairly sure has no repeats.

But order will be restored! Likely when I get real internet instead of siphoning off some tech-lacking person with such a dubious network name as "NETGEAR." Hmm, I wonder why it's unsecured. Maybe it's a trap!

2. Disclosure - When A Fire Starts To Burn (Settle) (For JCD and my neighbor's girlfriend who liked the Disclosure CD I gave her)
