    Summer in the City mixtape

    You've probably already read about our "Summer in the City" mixtape, so what tracks are missing? What tracks go on your mixtape about the summer, the city, or are just missing from this mixtape? i'll show you my shortlist if you show me yours ;)

    nice mix

    I'll have to play with this and put my shortlist together from my mac at home.
    In the meantime, check out this list of essential 2007 summer listening put together by Glide Magazine:

    oh man, now you're giving me ideas for another mixtape. for now, wanna trade actual tapes. yours has some of the tracks off CDs stolen out of my car a couple years ago, although nice work throwing a few newer ones up there too.
    i think Mr. Blue Sky is roughly equivalent to my inclusion of Livin' in the Sunlight, Lovin' in the Moonlight. stop me if i'm wrong...

    Yeah, that ELO was included in a similar vein. Yeah, let's trade!

    maybe we can document some spot photographically sometime, and then trade mixes

    Fun idea. This is kind of haphazard, and noene of these are about the summer or the city per se, but they remind me of warmer weather:

    Side A
    1. Shot in the Arm - Wilco
    2. What a Wonderful World - Joey Ramone
    3. Diane - Material Issue
    4. Mary Jane - Vulgar Boatmen
    5. Like Wow, Wipeout - Hoodoo Gurus
    6. She Said - Holly Golightly

    Side B
    1. Murder or a Heart Attack - Old 97's
    2. Eyes Like Sparks - Grandpaboy
    3. Chasing Heather Crazy - Guided by Voices
    4. I Think I Need a New Heart - Magnetic Fields
    5. Cinnamon - The Long Winters
    6. There She Goes - The La's

    (I'm not on my "Last FM" computer and this is the first time I added tracks to a post, so I have no idea if this works or not.)

    Will beta test for food.

    looks like everything worked out just fine, 'cept last.fm doesn't have all the tracks in the known universe. that was the problem making our list as well.
    i'm glad to see some artistic consistancy between our mixes, if only because it means bands like the magnetic fields have a summer type pallete of music. maybe it's just the ukes, which have some undeniable summer quality?
