THE AFTERGLOW : EPISODE 35 (revived)

Those of you who enjoy great mixtapes, are in for a treat this week if i must say so myself. New Vivian Girls, Bibio, Lykke Li, Wye, Oak, and all sorts of other new goodness. There’s even a really solid soundboard recording of a Thom Yorke track that i was desperately hoping would be included on “The King of Limbs” (i’d been waiting for a better quality copy for a while).

Lots of great chillwave, dream pop, fuzzy lo-fi, neo-psych, experimental, and general goodness this week. There’s something for everyone. Once again, thank you for all the support, likes, and reblogs. Thank you. As always, these Afterglow mixes are best heard at night. Make out, drive, study, sleep, or fuck to it. Do whatever you like, but please enjoy it.

Please support the artists that you find and enjoy. Buy their music, merchandise and tickets to see their shows. Supporting them is the only purpose in doing this blog. Contrary to the opinions of some, music blogs are a great way to discover new music, but there will only be so much new music to go around if these artists can’t afford to support themselves through their art and commerce. Only use these mixtapes as a guide to find something to throw your (financial and emotional) support behind.
