ryn's Recent Likes, vol. 1

This week is pretty self-explanatory for the most part. This mix is a collection of some of the music I've most recently been listening to. Tracks of alllll kinds! You've got some r&b, some indie rock, some hip hop, some radio rock (I'm looking at YOU, Foo Fighters) and some other goodies along the way. These are all jams I've been into off of albums that I've, for the most part, been digging. Oh, and that new Foo album Wasting Light, I think, is pretty kick ass. You've probably gotten a taste of it in some capacity recently, as Dave and the crew have been taking over radio, tv, and internet as of late. Anyway, that's for another post.

For this mix, I've actually changed the "Album Name" and track numbers for each of these songs for the sake of organization in your iTunes (or god forbid Windows Media... whatever it is now). If you do use iTunes and want to make it easy on yourself, with the program open, press command+n (Mac) or I believe Ctrl+n (PC) to make a new playlist and just drag the tracks into said playlist. If that's too much for you, click here.

Enjoy! And as always, the link to download the whole damn thing is at the bottom (...Emzy).

ryn's Hip Hop, vol. 1 - Tunes for the Road

Sometimes when I'm driving late at night or on some sunny weekend, I want nothing more than to turn up my radio and just listen to some beats. I do enjoy most types of music, and hip hop is no exception. Especially something witty that I can bob my head to. Anyway, the main theme or idea of this mixtape is hip-hop you can drive to. Some tunes that'll sound real good coming out of your car stereo (and it's woofer). There's some really, really new stuff, and there's some classics. Just stuff I enjoy myself. I hope it is to your liking!

Kevmoh's Music Mix 3 - Springtime


Spring is coming upon us and I figure that with all of the wonderful weather and prime times to go driving with the music down, why not have have a mix to go with that mood? This mix is all about the music you want when you're going on a nice road trip to Montreal on a spring day as the temperate wind caresses your hair while you drive, or when you're going for a walk with some sunglasses just to enjoy being outdoors. It's about appreciating that winter is finally over and that we can now go outside. It's oriented towards a lot of road-trippin songs and indie pop music that will get you in the mood for the outdoors. ENJOY. 

Also, if you don't make it through the whole mix at least give the last song a listen. So much sweet sweet indie pop.

1) The Moonbabies - Fieldtrip USA
2) The Byrds- Wasn't Born to Follow
3) Volcano Choir - Island, IS
4) Oh No! Oh My! - Walk in the Park
