Harri's INEVITABLE Best of 2011-2012 Mix!

Is the blog dead? No, it is just sleeping honey. Don't cry. But seriously, four posts in a year? We should be ashamed. I've been busy with jobs and schools and marathons of poorly-acted pre-CGI science fiction films, so it's not my fault. Maybe the blog needs more oomph? There's no law that says "mix" can't mean "cake mix." We could turn it into a baking blog because THOSE ARE HUGE RIGHT NOW. Or we could turn it into TUMBLR (haha, no). Anyway, I have new material for you:

1. Moon Duo - Sleepwalker (4:52)
2. Here We Go Magic - I Believe In Action (4:39)
3. The Dunes - Jukebox (3:22)
4. John Maus - Head for the Country (3:17)
5. Panda Bear - Slow Motion (4:36)
6. Belong - Perfect Life (4:29)
7. Sic Alps - The First White Man To Touch California Soil (2:38)
8. Trust - F.T.F (4:08)
9. The Luyas - Face (5:22)
10. Clark - Com Touch (4:23)
11. Rayon Beach - Some Fun Before We Die (3:23)
12. Vivian Girls - Take It As It Comes (3:00)
13. The New Lines - Prodigal Son (2:57)
14. Peaking Lights - Dream Beat (6:28)
15. Thee Oh Sees - Contraption/Soul Desert (5:21)
16. Bill Callahan - Riding For The Feeling (6:05)

http://www44.zippyshare.com/v/11416965/file.html

I don't think Bill Callahan would approve of me ending with Riding for the Feeling but ehhh I just wanted to (what can you follow that track with? nothing). LP tentatively scheduled for this SATURDAY NIGHT, DEC. 8TH @ 6PM EST!!

Harri's First Half of 2011 Mix!

the hat

I've been a little busy the last few months and haven't had the time to incorrectly tag mp3 files, upload them to hit-or-miss virus-ridden file-sharing sites, and then write up confusing meme-filled ramblings about everything except the music you're being told to listen to. What's a music?

But anyway, if you have NEVER downloaded a FIRST HALF OF XXXX mix, then now is the time to do so as this is a fine bunch of songs. Listen. Emotions will scald you like a blistering hot shower of raw sentiment and overwhelming feelings. What's left of you will be quivering in a puddle of tears, hemorrhaging confusion and overtaken with the regret that your life up to this moment has been meaningless. I promise, bro.

Tracklist:

1. The Luyas - Too Beautiful To Work (3:41)
2. Wax Idols - All Too Human (3:01)
3. Leno Lovecraft - Cybernetic (4:00)
4. Sic Alps - Do You Want To Give $$? (2:44)
5. Sands Hollow - Watch Yourself (2:25)
6. Warpaint - Undertow (Javelin Remix) (3:05)
7. Young Prisms - Eleni (3:45)
8. John Maus - Quantum Leap (2:48)
9. The New Lines - Please Fall In Love (3:21)
10. Belong - Never Came Close (4:13)
11. Golf Swingers - It Fight (2:15)
12. Rayon Beach - Death Rides a Horse (2:19)
13. Moon Duo - Fallout (5:30)
14. Vivian Girls - Death (2:46)
15. Peaking Lights - Summertime (5:13)
16. The Fresh & Onlys - Wash Over Us (3:39)

Before you get all uppity like "it's only MAY JEEEEZUUUSSS WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU STUPID" it's been almost exactly six months since I posted my best of 2010 mix so stop being mean to me. Listening party NEXT Saturday 14th at 7PM EST! Soundcloud stream this time, I swear (and maybe an LP this weekend if people are interested.)

~Harri

P.S.(A.): Since this blog has been hawking The New Lines til readers' ears have bled, I think that a little spam is in order: go here and buy their first 7" single (one song of which is on this mix).

2010 Communal Mix: Gambling With Souls!

This year has been a veritable roller-coaster ride of emotion on the RHMB, not that I would know since I'm rarely given over to sentiment or "feelings." Personal relationships can be chaotic, beast-like things, better left to the more swarthy races. It gets so confusing you never know just whom is doing what to whomever! One thing is for sure though, people do have opinions about music! What better way to get all these thinkings about musics out in the open where they can be debated, bitterly, leading to the shredding of friendships, than on a somewhat democratic list or "mix" of sorts? Also, as you can plainly make out from the picture, this path may also lead to waywardness and spotty morality ---> OR EVEN COMMUNISM.

Try this: track #, artist, title, (boardie who picked it):

1. Blank Dogs - Goes By (~Harri)
2. Sl**** B***s - Tell 'Em (Buck Sexington)
3. Antoine Dodson - Bed Intruder Song! (Okely)
4. Boy Eats Drum Machine - ABQ (Nymphadoratonks)
5. Oneohtrix Point Never - Stress Waves (rich)
6. Sex Bob-omb - Threshold (lindy lou who)
7. Säkert! - Dansa, fastän (pocki)
8. The Walkmen - Angela Surf City (Sarah Juice)
9. Electric President - Mr. Gone (Clarabelle)
10. Dum Dum Girls - Jail La La (hamdy)
11. Kitchen's Floor - Twenty-Two (witches hat)
12. Gonjasufi - Holidays (revilo)
13. Kurt Vile - Invisibility: Nonexistent (swan swan hum)
14. Small Black - Hydra (fradleybox)
15. Tunng - Hustle (The Grolsch)
16. Typhoon - Starting Over (Bad Habits) (strack)
17. The Bird And The Bee - Maneater (Romi & Wesley)
18. Tap Tap - Codeine (Completely Unhinged)
19. L** S********* - D*nce Yrs*lf Cl**n (really dizzy)
20. Beach House - Lover Of Mine (Miss Modular)

http://www.mediafire.com/?e0ecgypo43r1i3y

Thanks for submitting the tracks, folks! *MOST* of the songs are from 2010... most of them. Listening party @ 7PM EST this Friday but there might also be a mid-thursday one, around 1PM EST (and I should have a streamable version up by then).

~Harri

P.S. whoever gave me the Glenn Richards track I'm sorry. I didn't write down your name so I just left it off the mix. So in honor of this person, please reader, listen to Barfly Prometheus by Glenn Richards!

Thanks to pukirocks in the chatbox for the upload! I'm assuming this Office Chart is in reference to enjoying hot tea while literally flying over a desert (or sea?) of some sort and isn't a metaphor (or something) about the nightmarish right wing insanity that's raging in the US, so (^)< mmm, tea! <(^)

New Office Chart & THANKS PUKIROCKS!

As many of you may have noticed a lot of the Office Chart Mixes produced over the last year have been from twitterer pukirocks, so I just want to take this moment to give them a special bit of recognition along with a disgustingly sentimental image hotlink that will hopefully be taken down or broken before too many people see it! Please visit their twitter feed as a sign of thanks, and without further ado...

RHMB's Belle and Sebastian Mix!

B&S: they look pleasant

Ah, Belle and Sebastian. The name-checking indie band that almost everyone can agree on. Okay, maybe some people don't like them. "Too precocious," they say, maybe even calling them "dainty." I for one don't buy it! This split is reminiscent of the Cross-Atlantic Conflict on the RHMB. However, despite the deep divide between American and British RHMBers, riven by years of clear UK aggression, and divided by bad blood over 1812, who had the best punks and tea taxes (now more pertinent than ever), it's nice to have a moment's respite and enjoy some wispy, emotive, indyrockyness together. And / or make babies.

fradleybox 1st half of 2010 MIX!

When asked for a moment to reflect on the making of this 1st half of 2010 mix, fradleybox humbly said, "i tried to make it itunes friendly but who knows." In the war between RHMB Mix Blog and iTunes, it is good to know there is someone else in my war corner.

...oh wait, a little bit later he also said "made this specifically to cover the gaps in the other mixes (yours and blast-zone). i like some of that stuff too. and i know some of these acts won't be new to a lot of people (black keys, unkle, bedm, obv. bonobo, flying lotus, ret. gospel choir, etc too also)" [obv. = obviously, obv -ed]

A listening party is planned for Sunday, January 3rd, at 7PM, unless most of the people on this mix disagree with me, and then I'll update with a different date (or there may be two listening parties? who knows!). Also, good luck getting this to work with iTunes. *shakes head*

Harri's Best of 2009: Art E. Mix!

Harri is me, by the way. This has been a great year for music, I think. These are 18 tracks from all but two of my favorite albums (or maybe from singles or something) this year. I left off Roman Soldiers and Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti because the former was redundant and the second was kind of a "greatest hits" album but not really so whatever. But I love them all the same.

01 - Thee Oh Sees - Tidal Wave (3:43)
02 - Here We Go Magic - Fangela (5:30)
03 - Fresh & Onlys - Feelings in My Heart (2:53)
04 - Broadcast & The Focus Group - I see, So I see So (2:08)
05 - Gary War - Clean Up (4:00)
06 - The Mantles - Don't Lie (3:42)
07 - Ganglians - Lost Words (4:17)
08 - FRAET - Another Way To Answer (4:08)
09 - Tonstartssbandht - Black Country (3:29)
