Today officially marks ten years since the launch of Faronheit. There will be many words and some special anniversary stuff happening in the next week or so, but I just wanted to get that formal announcement out of the way right here and now. The first four years of the site were a bit insane, to the point where music blogs were just beginning to take off and record labels became extremely litigious about free music being downloaded across every corner of the internet. It was enough to get the old version of the site shut down, and those four years of archives erased. Well, at the very least no longer active through traditional search engines. A little help from the Wayback Machine provides ample archival evidence of the magic that was the mid-to-late ’00s Blogspot boom. Anyways, the site getting shut down then sparked the move over to this current dot com location, which in my opinion has been the best thing for it. Still going strong after all these years, and still offering quality, legal music for streaming and download on a regular basis. Speaking of which, here’s today’s edition of Pick Your Poison, which features tracks from Khary, Picnic Lightning, The Qualia and Thelonious Martin (ft. Joey Purp). In the Soundcloud section after the jump, stream songs from Black Dice, Brian Fresco (ft. Chance the Rapper & Blue Hawaii), Cass McCombs, DENA, DJ Esco (ft. Future), Hockey Dad, Ice Choir, LANY, Negative Gemini, Pill, Public Access T.V. and more! Happy 10 years! Thanks for reading! Let’s do 10 more?!
Picnic Lightning – American Ruin
The Qualia – Die in Slow Motion
Sketch McGuiney – Ferris Bueller (ft. DJ Ragz)
