Jai-A-Lites:

- The Drums are my current guilty pleasure. It's simple and hooky. That is all.

- That Robyn single is amazing. Body Talk in three parts is kinda much, though. I included her, "Indestructible," remix to applaud her efforts.

- I used the Ukulele Recordings of "Betrayed By Bones," by Hellogoodbye. It sounds more quaint and intimate.

- The change from the quiet of Hellogoodbye to the loud rasp of Attack In Black is one of my favourites. Attack In Black's Marriage is one of the most underrated punk albums ever released, showcasing their writing depth. I included a link for you to download here:

Really, go get it. It's THAT good.

- Dil Se's "Chaiyya Chaiyya," was from the Inside Man soundtrack. Incredible movie. I'm in disbelief that Spike Lee had a hand in that.

- Find the switch. I always throw in a track that doesn't really go with anything, but changes the pace of the mix. It's easy to find. It's always the song that is the calm before the storm. Find it, gmail me, and I will personally put you on my mailing list, where you will be subject to gay porn subscriptions and fartbombs.

- The title is from the Fifth Hour Hero track.

Download This! we're not getting older

I just wanted to put together a little something just to get back in the swing of things. Some indie-rock, some jingle-jangle, mostly songs of mood . . . Most of the time, it’s for the car. And since we’re headed up north for a little while, I figured this would be fitting. If you are part of my mixtape mailing list, don’t worry, you will receive this in its’ entirety, crazy handmade cover and all. Disc one of a 2-disc set. The title is from the Junior Boys song.
