oh hello there.
i like downloading mixes that other people make. it saves me the trouble of sifting through all my music and i'm pretty much always guaranteed to find something new - or at least, something new to me. so here's a few for you! maybe you'll find something new. oh look at that, i rhymed.
THE BOOMERANG: one of my favorite brooklyn photographers and someone definitely worth keeping your eye on, elizabeth weinberg, posted the boomerang to her blog for "the last sputterings of winter". after one of the weirdest weekends i've had in a long time, this sweet and simple mix is what i'll be listening to at work all day.
GO ON...: terry diabolik, aka my friend darin who coincidentally just walked in behind me while i'm writing this post, also crafted a mix which i downloaded a few days ago and have since been enjoying. go on is packed full of "burning soul jams" by the likes of etta james, lee dorsey and stevie wonder, that never get old.
EDIT: also,
THE PLAYLIST: another great local artist that i've been following, ellen frances, has also put together a playlist worth listening to. an honest mix-and-match of all sorts of old and new, it's keeping my ears on their toes.
