Track 10 from Can't Go Back
Length: 00:03:10
Year: 2007
Track Description:
Papercuts is so soft and poppy, but somehow isn't so precious, the way the Shins and the like are, as to be obnoxious. The piano in this song follows Our House really well and it goes with the theme of the mix: The world I know is gone away!

Track 2 from Feels

Track Description:
If you all haven't heard Strawberry Jam, go out and get it right away. Avey Tare, well, I'm in love with the man, and he dominates that album. This is a song from the album Feels that also has his hand in it. Its hard to say what makes his songwriting so effective but I saw these guys live not too long ago and dude was just a beast.

The Swedes have invaded my music collection recently. I'm OK with this. They are benevolent. Jose Gonzalez is perfect music for drifting out into a big ocean of laziness and affection.

There are some albums that are weird to listen to as an MP3 or on CD. This album is one of them. I am used to a side A and a side B and that sound of record crackling. In fact, if I could just put that sound over this whole mix, that would be pretty nice.

The Halloween 2007 Badge
Happy Halloween 2007! In celebration of this event, here is a recipe to make your very own candy corn:

Combine 1 cup of razor blades, 2 cups of clown tears and 3/4 tablespoon spider eggs in a pan and bring to a boil stirring constantly. Stir occasionally. Remove from heat and add 2 cups hemlock and 3 ounces of fish oil. Stir until cool enough to handle. Shape and distribute.

Trick or treat!
