In hindsight, I shuold have continued with Pick Your Poison for the full week this week. Looks like there’s enough music to have sustained an “at least 10 songs per day” rate, but here I am giving it all to you in one fell swoop. Given that there are 50+ mp3s here, highlights are very easy to come by, so let me rattle a bunch off for you. The Asteroid #4, Fergus & Geronimo, Martina Topley-Bird, Maserati, The Mountain Goats, Porcelain Raft, Rachel Goodrich, Solar Temple Suicides, Toro y Moi, Wise Blood, and Yalls all make the cut. That’s just normal music we’re talking about. There’s a bunch of holiday-specific music in this collection as well. Of those songs, I can recommend the ones from Banjo or Freakout, Beach House, Candy Claws, Craig Wedren, I Like Trains, Robbers on High Street, and Tape Deck Mountain. So check all this stuff out, maybe bookmark this page and come back to it when you have the appropriate time to spend looking it over carefully. And depending on how things go next week, I might just have one more edition of Pick Your Poison to deliver before Christmas Eve.
