GIMME TINNITUS

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.

Take your time, scroll slowly, there are some real gems here. You may notice some big names missing here. Well, you know you can find those mp3s elsewhere (right?).

I will be putting up best of 2009 posts all week, so make sure you check back here soon. Also, if you haven’t already, you should check out largehearted boy’s 2009 Year-End Online Music Lists. Good stuff.

As you may already know, Adult Swim has a long history of releasing rad mixtapes. It all started with the Occult Hymn EP by Danger Doom. Then came: Definitive Swim (Def Jux themed), Warm And Scratchy (indie rock themed), Ghostly Swim (Ghostly Int’l themed), and most recently African Swim (African hip hop themed). Now Adult Swim has a new mixtape entitled ATL RMX, which teams up Atlanta rappers with a wide variety of remixers. And now a couple of tracks from said free mixtape.

Downloadables:
Take Off (Michna Remix) (mp3) by Young Dro
Good Night (HEALTH Remix) (mp3) by OJ Da Juiceman featuring Gucci Mane

Download the whole ATL RMX album… here.

Some of the other remixers on the album include: SALEM, Flying Lotus, Memory Tapes, Dam-Funk, Phaseone, Hudson Mohawke, and Prefuse 73.

The album is a cross-promotion for Rockstar’s app named Beaterator, which is a Timbaland-inspired remix app.

>> The Lost Turntable has some of the original Terminator score for your consideration… here. You should totally listen to “Tunnel” while you commute.

>> Prefuse 73 has posted a 2003 tour CD for free on the internets. The Forkcast has more deets… here.

Downloadable: Track 16 (mp3)

So, I think it’s about time we start looking back on the year. I don’t know about you, but I think this is a pretty great year for music so far. Without any further ado, I give you the first installment of… The Best Downloadables Of 2009.
