MIX: Morr from '99 to '04

Bohm

For those five years Morr could do little wrong in my eyes (after, the story isn't so much the same, meh). For an IDM music label that's mostly known for instrumental stuff, this mix is heavy on vocals because -> it's heavy on the Blue Skied and Clear compilation which is -> heavy on vocals cuz it's mostly Slowdive covers.

[2010] Evenings - North Dorm EP

just check this shit out, you WON'T be sorry. if you got the instrumental mix, you've already heard "Favorite Maze" but go on and download the EP from the mediafire link provided by the artist on their bandcamp page, cos the rest of it is just as great.

[2010] Blank Dogs - Landed and Fixed

Re: Blank Dogs: Under and Under (2009) > Landed and Fixed (2010), but I still love it. It doesn't have the high points of Night Night, L Machine, or Around the Room comparatively, but it comes in a better length and is more listenable and consistent. Plus it has a really sweet synthy instrumental track. I wonder if there are any soundboard Blank Dogs live bootlegs? I should actually look instead of just posting out loud first.

[2010] Instrumental Mix

I don't make any grand, egotistical claims like this is the "best of" instrumental music in the past year. They aren't the best instrumental albums of the year, either. Many of the albums these tracks come from are not themselves entirely instrumental. It is, however, a damn nice mix of some of the best instrumental tracks I've heard this year, and I hope you end up getting into one of these artists because you like their track.

so, download the mix here and enjoy

Beach Fossils - Face it / Distance 7"

edit: I will say that the guitar in these reminds me of early Piano Magic, which is basically like saying "Steven, why don't you listen to this over and over until you burn out forever on it?
