Wait until next year

In the mix…well, kind of

I’ve been toying with various online mix-y type offerings, and thought I’d share one I’ve uploaded to 8tracks, a site that offers a particularly user-friendly experience.

The Inaugural Wait Until Next Year Mix

It’s only short, but I figured it was a start. If I get the time I might attempt something more involved, maybe use Audacity or something.

What do you use for your online (or offline) mixing/mixtape/podcasting needs? Do you have any mixes/mixtapes/podcasts to share?

Comedy Vehicle

Most of the television I watch has some sort of soporific purpose, or at the very least is kind of there for passive enjoyment, to help me unwind, to offer mild escapism etc etc. And this is not necessarily a slight on the majority of what I watch. We’re not huge TV-watchers in my household, and generally turn to it towards the end of the evening once work/chores/general cultural stimulation are out of the way/no longer an enjoyable or viable prospect.
