*** The Themed Weekly Member Mixtape Thread Is Back ***

[Plankton]

11. wolverinewolfweiselpigeon: Nouvelle Vague - No One Knows

Nice and mellow, and a good bossa nova, or 'Girl From Ipanema' style cover of Queens.

12. rostasi: Stara Rzeka - Przebudzenie Boga Wschodu

I used to take the train in to work everyday, and this would have been a nice listen for the ride. They've managed to create a very good imitation train ride sound, almost Tangeine Dream-ish.

13. Powerstars: Killers - Jenny Was a Friend of Mine

Love the melody on this one. Although I don't usually listen to euro-style stuff this was good. I've never heard to Killers before.

14. duga: Alpine Decline - Sleeping Gas

A bit meloncholy for my tastes, but I can appreciate the artistry here.

15. Frownland: Sonny Sharrock - Promises Kept

Always a fan of some free style jazz. Nice piece.

16. The Batlord: Grand Belial's Key - Vultures of Misfortune

Was kind of expecting this one. Threw me off at first, but when it kicked in, I was like "Aha! There it is". Not a fan of the growl, but yeah it kicked some serious bootay.

17. Astronomer: Twelve Foot Ninja - Ain't That A Bitch

Never heard this band before. Nice mix of easy listening, and heavier styles. I'll have to give this one a few more spins.

18. Vanilla: Flume - Insane

Again, not my cup-o-tea, but I appreciate the artistry.

19. bob.: Corrections House - Hoax the System

Droning, minimalistic, kinda heavy... almost early Ministry-ish. Pretty cool.

20. Arya Stark: Father John Misty - Hollywood Forever Cemetery Sings

Nice concept piece. I had to turn it up at the end to hear the BG.

21. Sequoioideae: Coffins - Decapitated Crawl

Whoa. Although I'm not a doom fan, I can appreciate the... ummm... artistry? It seems this type of thing has been the proverbial "Beaten Dead Horse" for a while now. Someone give that man a cough drop.

22. Plankton: Rush - Time Stand Still

Just reiterating what I posted earlier. Sitting with friends, had a random CD on, and it was one of those moments where everyone is talking and having fun, and I'm tinking deeply about life when this tune comes on. It fit so perfectly I figured I'd share it on the MB Mixtape.

23. Burning Down: Let's Active - Horizon

Kind of whimsical, and shimmery. Not a bad tune, just not my thing.


This really opens up the doors for new music for me, and I appreciate you putting this together Dr Rez. Looking forward to lots more of this.

You should definitely check out Silent Machine (2012) by Twelve Foot Ninja, one of the real surprise albums for me from last year.

I was kind of torn with this one. I love the song, but it's kind of...racist. GBK are an outspokenly anti-Semitic band, and they used traditional Jewish music on that song, and the album, as a slap in the face, but I think they didn't quite realize what they were doing. If you use Jewish music in your song subversively, and it makes it better, then you've actually just made the Jews look better. Either way, they're a great band.

I got it yesterday and it is amazing. I feel like I can safely say if you like rock and roll you will like this band. They go from jazzy lo tempo to balls out so seamlessly, dont think I have heard a band do that so well..maybe ever.

Do you have WinZip or something that will open the .zip file from Mediafire? I have Firefox and and WinZip and I downloaded and unzipped in one shot.

You can't use the Spotify version?

I just checked and it is doing the same for me, I think it has something to do with one of the songs copyright that was detected. I will try another upload site. Give me about 30 minutes.

I am uploaded to my google drive right now.

Mediafire is kinda tricky for some. You have to either watch the commercial and enter the text afterward, or enter whats in the Capcha text image.

Maybe Google Drive or Box.net would be a better option?

If you still can't get to it, I'll send you a link in a PM to the file off my sites server.

Edit: NM, I see the good Doctor is on the case.

Great! Got it thanks Rod! Also thanks to Dr. Rez, Plankton and BD for your help and comments. Bloody mediafire! I'd think about using Depositfiles or one of the others next time, otherwise this is likely to keep happening...
