SCAVENGERS … OF THE OUTER MISSION GARAGE SALE WASTES!

from Dare over at Relics of Our Time
Just in time for … the end of summer comes a mix tape of garage rockin shenanigans. I wanted to throw together a bunch of bands from San Francisco’s lo-fi revival of the last few years, but you’ve also got groups from Brooklyn, Columbus, Orange County, and of course Germany. Choppy, caffeinated, bratty, yearning, and a whole lot of fun. All songs from the last three years, none longer than three minutes and change.

For.Spring.Splicing

Category: Indie electronic stuff.
Sounds like: The blithe daydreams of a madcap young scientist.
A bit late for a last entry in the spring theme, but you can't contain this mix anyway. It's like a lab beaker bubbling over with day-glo disasters concerned only with getting outside and catching some sun. Conceptually it concerns all things spliced: critters, word games, jumbled thoughts. Naturally, there's a running theme of animal sounds. The soundtrack you knew your childhood toys were making while you were away at school.

Spring forward!

Sounds like: Pop this in when you need a bounce toward that springtime season.
This is a pretty straightforward spring-themed mix, with a touch of summer as well. Starts off on the rock side and then shifts in a more pop direction about halfway through (some of my mixes still reflect that old cassette division between sides). A schoolteacher friend said that she put this mix on recently and all the kids started dancing around. What better endorsement can you get?
