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

[Mondo Bungle]

Downloading now, if it goes at it's normal pace, I should be able to listen to it in 4 hours lol.

As promised, here is a Spotify playlist.

MB Weekly Member Mixtape #1, Part 1 by duga

Sadly, there are a few that aren't on Spotify yet (I knew this would happen). If the people who donated these respective tracks have a backup, I can put that in the playlist instead.

Killing Joke - Inside the Termite Mound (despite having a TON of Killing Joke, this song is not on there)

Kenkierman and Ger MacDonald - Crom Cruach

Fort Minor - Petrified (Doors Remix) (they didn't have the remix, so I put the original in)

Psalters - Dumpster Divers

[Trollheart]

I knew my one wouldn't be on Spotty. "Erinsaga" is one of the hardest albums to find. I had to get a special import copy on CD, and even then that was hard.

Btw it's Ken Kiernan and Ger McDonald, not Kenkierman, which sounds like some sort of hip-hop artist!

If anyone likes the "Crom Cruach" track I uploaded the whole album, some time ago on YouTube. Just search for "Erinsaga". Failing that, anyone who wants it can have a PM of the album.

Looking forward to hearing this tape, with a mixture of anticipation and dread...

so they don't becoming confusing to others.

The last track's band name and track are reversed.
The band is Psalters.
Is the Crom Cruach track from Jim Fitzpatrick
or is there a Ken Kiernan that this comes from?
Tiger Phone Card is from Dengue Fever

Fixing that now my bad! Thanks for letting me know. It was quite a bit of work getting this together and I must have mistyped the Dengue band name Sorry Urban, I will change the listing here and on first page but sadly the uploaded album will have to remain.

[Astronomer]

Thanks, Rez! Have downloaded and will listen later. Am looking forward to it.

If people can't dl the mixtape and are streaming. Listen to the remix on this youtube video. Original is just not the same.

[Blarobbarg]

I am so freaking excited! I'm currently on a family vacation so I'm not sure when I'll have a moment to sit down and listen to it uninterrupted, but I'm gonna try soon.

EDIT: Also, thank you so much Rez for getting this whole shebang together, you're a saint.

[LoathsomePete]

Quite enjoyed "Tiger Phone Card" and "Second Skin". It's also been ages since I've heard Beats Antique so Mondo Bungle scores some points for that. I also really liked the last track for the emphasis on the banjo, I'll have to look more into Dumpster Divers.

Sorry for the horrible sound quality in my song. Mediafire has changed their site completely so the song I uploaded was only there for streaming, which meant Rezz had to grab the song from YouTube.

[Mondo Bungle]

Dengue Fever is very cool, I will be wanting to hear more of them. Always liked Killing Joke, and I'm a massive Jesu fan. I enjoy synthy stuff, so "Game and Performance" is pretty cool.
The Chameleons are super awesome as well, definitely a good tape.

[WWWP]

What a great mix. I'm so glad you started this up again, Rez, I really enjoyed listening to this and I hope the excitement for the thread doesn't wane.

1. Urban Hatemonger: Dengue Fever - Tiger Phone Card

I liked this alright. The music was cool, the lyrics were a bit cheesy. I found myself humming it and returning to it a few times, so that's a good sign. I didn't feel the drive to download an album, but I could see myself growing to like it more the more I listen. Made me want to recommend:

Spoiler for Belle and Sebastian - Get Me Away From Here, I'm Dying:

2. LoathsomePete: Killing Joke - Inside the Termite Mound

Killing Joke is a band I hear a lot about but never looked into. I quite liked this track. I think you'd enjoy this, Pete:

Spoiler for The Drones - I See Seaweed:

3. Chrysalis: Jesu - Farewell

This was definitely a standout track for me. I returned to it more than any of the other songs on the mix, and am definitely interested in looking into some albums. This is right up my alley and a good representation of the kind of music I've been exploring lately. I think you'd dig:

Spoiler for R Stevie Moore - There Is No God In America:

4. Trollheart: Ken Kiernan and Ger MacDonald - Crom Cruach

This was another standout and I'll definitely grab the album this came from. Trollheart, I think you'd dig this track:

Spoiler for The Brian Jonestown Massacre - (David Bowie I Love You) Since I Was Six:

5. Mondo Bungle: Beats Antique - Dope Crunk

Man you always play the coolest stuff. I really, really dug this. Do you have any recommendations on which album to start with or bands that are similar? I stole this one from Jansz and think you'd like it too (it won't embed, sorry):

Spoiler for Boris Kovac & Ladaaba Orchest - Midnight Memories:

6. Dr. Rez: Benjamin Francis Leftwich - Atlas Hands

Rez I ate this up the moment you recommended it to me. This song is beautiful and the album is ****ing great. I urge everyone to check out more from Bejamin Francis Leftwich, his songwriting is remarkable. If you haven't heard Keaton Henson I think you'd really enjoy his album Dear but you should start by checking out this song:

Spoiler for Keaton Henson - Small Hands:

7. djchameleon: Fort Minor - Petrified (Doors Remix)

Haha, Deej, I could have guessed this track was from you in a second. I didn't particularly enjoy it, but I didn't skip it either. You should check out Zion I:

Spoiler for Zion I & The Grouch - Trains and Planes:

8. zer0: Chameleons - Second Skin

Another one that I really, really liked. I keep returning to this one as well and can see myself continuing to do so. I recommend this song all the time but I think you'd like it too:

Spoiler for Richard Hawley - Can You Hear The Rain, Love:

9. Blarobbarg: Psalters -Dumpster Divers

This song was cool. I love the energy of it, it's certainly not what I expected from Christian band whatsoever. You should look into The Growlers:

Spoiler for The Growlers - Sea Lion Goth Blues:
