Cassette Shelf: guest tape: snuff mix - april 2, 2009
http://cassetteshelf.blogspot.com/2009/04/guest-tape-snuff-mix-april-2-2009_02.html
Thursday, April 2, 2009. Guest tape: snuff mix - april 2, 2009. Today I'm pleased to introduce our first guest tape. Katie has prepared for you, our dear readers, a charming meander that we call "Snuff Mix for Kath at the Hands of Cagefighter". And I'd just like to interject - really? Two consecutive tracks about being hungry? An oblique reference to American Psycho. 01 "Uptown Girl" - Billy Joel (An Innocent Man);. 02 "Hungry Like the Wolf" - Duran Duran (Arena);.

Cassette Shelf: Top 5 (Under the Radar) Albums of The Year
http://cassetteshelf.blogspot.com/2009/01/top-5-under-radar-albums-of-year.html
Thursday, January 22, 2009. Top 5 (Under the Radar) Albums of The Year. 5 Noah and the Whale - "Peaceful the World Lays Me Down". 4 Amylie "Jusqu'aux oreilles". Ps the translation video is somewhat terrible, but it's all i could find. I do not think one needs a translation to appreciate the music, in fact, it may hinder one's enjoyment. 3 Bon Iver - "For Emma, Forever Ago". Hold on Now, Youngster."/ "We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed". Ok, technically I suppose this is cheating, but you know what? Mix Tape...

Cassette Shelf: exercises in self-evisceration -- january 18, 2009
http://cassetteshelf.blogspot.com/2009/01/exercises-in-self-evisceration-january.html
Saturday, January 17, 2009. Exercises in self-evisceration - january 18, 2009. One of my favorite parts of High Fidelity. Is the idea that our attachment to music is largely autobiographical. I am never quite sure if my attachment to a song at a particular emotional crux in my life is because I had said emotion and then the song fulfilled it, or if I heard the song and felt said emotion in a devastatingly complete way. Put differently, is music my autobiography or am I music's autobiography? 11 "Remember...

Cassette Shelf: Songs for Your Space Odyssey
http://cassetteshelf.blogspot.com/2009/02/songs-for-your-space-odyssey.html
Sunday, February 22, 2009. Songs for Your Space Odyssey. I've really been lacking inspiration these past few months in terms of mixes, but I have returned triumphant, with a brand-spanking new mix for your listening pleasure. My friend "D" had a sci-fi themed party the other night, which I was sadly unable to attend due to other out-of-town engagements, but in commemoration of her birthday, and her apparently kick-ass (and revealing) costume, I have created "Songs for Your Space Odyssey". 18 "Ray Gun" - ...

Cassette Shelf: Housekeeping
http://cassetteshelf.blogspot.com/2008/12/housekeeping.html
Saturday, December 27, 2008. This post is going to take care of some housekeeping for the blog. Mixwit is unfortunately closing down. We are hoping they may return with some form of paid service, which I would be crazy enough to pay for, but in the meantime we are going to attempt to transition over to Seeqpod. We will see how well this goes, and I may even attempt to convert our old mixtapes into a still-listenable format in Seeqpod as well. (When infinite time presents itself, of course.). 10 Worst Cel...

Friday, August 29, 2008. Songs for Your Troubled Dreams. Also, I recently dreamed that I was trying to hang out with Kevin Smith but he was totally a dick about it, which kind of messed me up cause I always got the impression he was a pretty cool dude. Ps My apologies for not posting anything last week as promised. I was very busy, and dropped the ball. My bad, sorry dawgs. 01 "(intro)" - Broken Social Scene (Bee Hives)*. 02 "Pennantless on Homecoming " - Hills Like White Elephants (Himalaya). 18 "Les Lu...
