If you like what you hear you should probably purchase music from the above artists at any of these fine online retailers:

Insound | Amazon MP3 | eMusic | Other Music

And if you haven’t done it already, make sure you check out the other monthly mixes.

Also, If you want to download all the individual tracks in this post, you should probably think about installing the DownThemAll! or FlashGot Firefox extensions.

Quick before the month is over, let’s stop and look back and reflect on on what we were listening to one year ago.

I must say it feels weird posting a live WOXY track the day after they stopped live broadcasting. There must be something we can do to bring back live broadcasts to WOXY. Let’s get on that, ok?

Oh, this is the March 2009 Mix. Listen.

Today I have some Boogie Boarder for you, the latest from art collective/record label Famous Class. Boogie Boarder say “[o]ur own sound is the beast-lord avatar of a two-minute pop song.” I’m not exactly sure what that means, but I’d say it’s pretty apt. Listen…
