Indie Pop Delectables

18. May 2010 · Filed under: Mixtapes, Music · 1 Comment 

Indie pop is one of my favorite genres. Indie pop can describe a lot of groups, because it isn’t your standard pop music and there is a lot of rock in it, and these days even some electronica, too. I’ve narrowed down some songs that I love and think fit well together in a “delectable” mixtape.

As always, this mix was made via 8tracks.com and if you love making mixes, be sure to check them out. Now hit play and bask in some sexy indie pop tunage.

Track Listing:

Kiss That Grrrl – Kate Nash
Fallen Over – Rose Elinor Dougall
Sex – The Pipettes
Julia, We Don’t Live In The 60′s – The Indelicates
You Told A Lie – Camera Obscura

90′s Rock Extravaganza

02. February 2009 · Filed under: Mixtapes, Music · 4 Comments 

It’s time for a new mixtape from 8tracks so I’ve decided the theme for this tape is going to be some kick ass rock songs from the 1990′s. I grew up listening to this stuff and I love all of these tracks.

The 90′s represent a lot of things to me and bring back a lot of memories. Now dive it!
