Started as a present for my friend Hilary and woefully neglected, this mixtape took forever to finish. She told me she wanted to hear more bands with girls in them, and I had been reorganizing my vinyl and had an itching to make a new mix.
I started off the mix with some electronic-based songs, dipped into some indie rock, then delved into a metal and hardcore block, then went back to indie, ending with a song featuring plucked harp strings which would, if you decided to flip the tape over and start at side one again, merge perfectly into the electronic blips that start off the first track. I tried hard to cross a wide variety of genres without any jarring transitions.

Scout Niblett is one of the only people who can bridge the gap between metal and indie. Her songs are weird and chaotic and gentle all at once. And she's nuts (in a great way).

Some of the songs are pretty good, and overall seems like a good mix, but minus for including Blonde Redhead, who I saw live and who were probably the worst band I have ever seen in my entire life.

I saw Get Hustle open for The Locust with sledgbrainerd last summer. That was a radass show.
Great mix. Melt Banana, Blonde, Cat, it's all good.

That melt banana song is really unusually poppy, it's not like their older (and more straight-up spazz) stuff.

Awesome mix tape! I don't know a lot of these, but what I do know is fantastic.. I love the Low song, Cat Power is rad and so is CTTS.. and sometimes I can get down with Melt-Banana, though I'm not sure if I've heard that song or not.. most likely have though, being former roomates with jackamackson and all.
