Despite The Mix, Vol 15

fig. 1 Cancers

It has been just over 650 days since my last post. So much has changed over that time. Most notably as it relates to the posting of music on the internet - as in, the whole downloading a physical file has largely gone the way of floppy disks and Palm Pilots.  I envision this as my last mix with actual downloads and then I'll move (hopefully sooner than 650 days) to this whole new world of streaming music. Yes, I get it, I'm about three years behind the curve.  Some of us just like the idea of physical music - even the notion of physical property is a series of 1's & 0's on my computer or Ipod. 

Please enjoy this assortment of digital goodies.  My favorite is the first track by the Athens, GA-based Cancers which answers the question, if post-punk and dream-pop had a baby, what would it sound like?
