You remember tropical sample aficionado Monster Rally don’t you? With their self titled EP that made you beach blanket bingo until you finished that Pina Colada? They made a slight appearance on my Let’s Get Together mixtape. Ah, now it’s coming back to you. Well yes, the very same Monster Rally just sent me over their new full-length entitled Palm Reader. And it’s chalk full of 7 of the most hip-swaying tropical dreams you’ve just about ever heard.
I suggest you head over to the bandcamp right now and grab that for your collection right now. After all, it is free.
Also, it looks like Sweat Lodge Guru Records just put out their first EP on limited cassette, with b-side by Dunian. A mere $6.50 and that gem is yours.
Let’s Get Together__
I’ve been sitting on this mix for a little while now. It all came together quite nicely, and I’ve been letting it settle in my musical stomach. And it seems the time has come to let everyone help me digest it.
Now a few things you must know about this mix; it’s filled with some serious summer tunes I’ve had on constant rotation for some time now, most significantly during my time home for my little brother’s high school graduation, where my entire family was home for the first time in almost two years. So I thought it appropriate to name it likewise. Second of ly, the mixtape you’re about to download is my first go at a “continuous” mix. I even experimented with a bit of sampling and transitions. Pretty novice stuff, but none the less a step in the right direction.
So ‘right-click’ on the track below to get the 55 minute continuous track. And click the big DOWNLOAD to get the individual tracks.
