#27: NOT TALKING ABOUT DANCE LESSONS

This months fix is finally making use of six months worth of collecting wonderful songs in the new folky-indie-hippie vein that seems to have exploded since this time last year. As you might notice, The Dodos make an unprecedented 3 time appearance in one mix. That's because I just couldn't decide which song to cut. They are just so good. Overall the focus of the mix is on acoustic sounds with a diverse worldly aesthetic, sensitive emo boy lyrics, a healthy dose of handclaps, a little art rock and a far amount of reverb. This mix also allowed me to put in some things that I have been trying to find places for for a while. Namely Yma Sumac and George Harrison. Both of which I listen to a lot, but rarely do they have a commonality with the indie rock that tends to be my focus here on the NEIMT. And last I'll note that I realize I am like 6 months behind with that Bon Iver song, but I just couldn't help myself. It's just that good. If you haven't yet been numbed to its charm, then here is one more chance.
