A [mostly] mellow little mix for your summertime enjoyment.
Includes two twofers: A couple of summer-centric songs from the kings of the American summer, The Beach Boys, and bookending the whole thing are two excellent songs from Thurston Moore’s new record (“Demolished Thoughts”). In between is all sorts of goodness and a little tear of mourning (still) for Mark Linkous.
The download will only be available for two weeks, so git while the gittin’s good!
