This year's year-end mixtape. As ever, link leads to tumblr. This is almost all new music this time around; I took out some of the older tracks that I've been listening to this year. Three tracks I would have otherwise included but could not were: The Cardigans, I Need Some Fine Wine and You, You Need to Be Nicer; The Fugees, Killing Me Softly; and Magnetic Zeros, That's What's Up. I could probably put together a whole mix with alternative tracks from the artists I picked. I won't, but I could.
