If you want to download all the individual tracks in this post, you should think about installing the DownThemAll! Firefox extension.

Nick Noeding Jr. is busy. Besides his Shoegaze/Down-tempo/Acousmatic/Tape music solo work as Pollination, he is also currently involved in the following projects Day Of The Woman (w/ Yppah and Stenographer), Collider (a Yppah collab), 10k Cities (a Zoomzip collab), and Slow (a Stenographer collab). And then there is also his wildlife analysis photography. Oh, and he also plays in Yppah’s live band.

So we were pretty excited to received a mixtape from Nick the other day. If you want the real “mixtape” experience with the 79MB file below maybe you should get one of THESE (and if you do let me know if it actually works). If you don’t want to dl the whole mix, I have also included a few individual mp3s for your downloading pleasure. Listen…
