Two and Zero and Zero and Eight and Stuff

It felt like time for a new mix this past weekend, so amidst the several other overdue mixtapes I'm trying to finish for friends right, I managed to get this one together. I think it's quite good, and there's more than a few real gems in here. As you might have assumed from the title – a wee reference to Avocado Baby :) – these are all songs that I've been particularly obsessed with for the past couple of weeks. Some are new (Crushed Stars, Crystal Stilts), some are older (everything else), some are Pam Berry (Veronica Lake), and some are excellent french covers (Po!). I hope you enjoy it! I find it's best for relaxing, staring up at a sky much like the one on the cover.

DOWNLOAD IT! As always, this mix is lovingly tagged as a compilation, complete with the cover art seen just up above.

[ZIP]: Two and Zero and Zero and Eight and Stuff (68mb, 10 MP3s)

Tracklist:
01. The Mayfields :: Feels Like Yesterday
