Nice Internet Thing: Muxtape
6 04 2008
This is cute. Upload up to 12 tracks and share them very simply. Basically, Muxtape let’s you create a text-based list of tracks that can be streamed within your browser. Very simple.
A selection of my current earworms is online.
Well, finally! I mean, it’s been around for two whole weeks now, after all.
It’s doomed, of course, but let’s mux ourselves silly while we may. Here’s mine, which is everchanging: http://hooverfactory.muxtape.com
Ooops, yes, and I forgot to credit you with introducing me to it. Humble apologies.
Laura Marling’s been getting a few spins round here too. V good.
PS: That Lindsey Buckingham track is good. How is the ablum? Multitrack-vocalicious?
‘Under The Skin’ is the album in question. It sounds like he recorded it on the road in a series of hotel rooms, always in the middle of the night, with whispered vocals a-plenty and multistacked Travis-pickin’ to die for. I happen to like this sort of thing a great deal.
Shame on me, but I never knew Joe Chester existed before I read your blog, Enda. That’s a gorgeous track. Am hooked now.
And a new album on the way. I’m, like, totally stoked.
Have you noticed that, in what’s a blatant c.y.a. move, now a BUY THIS FROM AMAZON link appears next to each Muxtape track?
Didn’t take long, did it? Ker-ching!
