note: Though many would consider Reckoner to be a 2007 song, In Rainbows had its actual physical store release on January 1st, 2008 in North America so I thought its inclusion was pretty suiting for the occasion. However, due to issues with iTunes, Reckoner didn't make it on all of the mixes.



Happy New Year!

Mix Tape Oh Eight! Finished Again!

Ok now there are 18 slices of golden sonic sexiness ready to penetrate the most sensual spaces of your ears packed onto a single CD. I'm pretty sure this is the final version. I've had a difficult time trying to find a balance between a mix that flowed well and a mix that showcased the best songs from each artist. Anyway, as completely awesome as it is right now there were a few songs that were really good that couldn't fit. In a lot of cases it broke my heart to have to choose between songs. If I had enough CDs I would make a Mix Tape Oh Eight Part Deux but I don't, so here they are so you can purchase them/download them at your own leisure if you haven't already:
















Happy New Year's Eve!

Mix Tape Oh Eight! is Finished

I have made the final adjustments to Mix Tape Oh Eight. Here at Blogged Drainpipe, we have toiled endlessly for the last year, creating a well-crafted mix that not only represents the music of the last year, but also is a joy to listen to. The result of that effort is Mix Tape Oh Eight!, a mix that was created mostly with Willy Nissen in mind. Mix Tape Oh Eight! is 16 golden tracks of pop music designed specifically to make you all warm and bubbly inside. While I will not yet divulge the contents of the Tape, I will tell you that it was just recently converted to a CD that can be distributed and shared easily. The track listing with be posted before New Year's Eve and the actual CD will be passed out at the "So This Is New Year's..." shindig. 

O Mc 7" Records presents MIX TAPE OH EIGHT!

So I know all of you were on the edge of your seats waiting for this shit so here's a little teaser to hold you over:






there's gonna be music.
