Something tells me, I'm into:



Random sounds that are running between my eardrums feat. Yeah Yeah Yeah's, Bloc Party, Jose Gonzales (in a way you've never heard him before) and a bevy of funkE french artists.

Oh and obviously, more cool remixes than you can shake a stick at!

Shake the Clouds Down...


This week, Rumichu brings some dreamy pop tunes to get you through your week, with a dash of heavier things, funk and electronica. I don't have track names yet but I know the title track is done by the funky skeletons and the girl-faced boys.

Enjoy

Valentine's Day



This mixtape is the soundtrack to your valentine's day, whatever you wish it to be. It features cutie all-stars such as Tunng, Aisling Lavelle, Sigur Ros and other lovely stuff.

Whether your valentine is spent in the shackles of your favorite beau/belle or spent eating chocolates and crying like newborn, you'll find something you like.

For me, valentine's day is the day that I can do anything I want and get everything my heart desires. Tomorrow, I'm going to bake a huge cake, slather it in dark chocolate icing, and eat it all for breakfast, then draw myself a bath with rose petals and delicate salts, and while away the morning listening to my favorite mixtape.

Happy Valentine's Day and for everyone at Purdue, Happy Snow Day (track one's for you).

The Sounds Up North (of England)


"Sheffield's more diverse than the Arctic Monkeys and all the 'New Yorkshire' bollocks" says Will B.

This mixtape's a homage to some modern Sheffield artists that are just as, perhaps even more, deserving of the Arc-tits Monkey's fame but were overlooked by the NME/myspace hype machines.

For those of you not in the know, or didn't take the time to peruse the Sheffield wiki entry in order to seem like cultural experts, Sheffield (the steel city) has given us such musical gems as the Human League, Joe Cocker and the Arctic Monkeys. It's also the birthplace of Warp Records, boner-inducing electronica label and home of Squarepusher, Aphex Twin and Boards of Canada.
