Hey, Happy Chinese New Year. It’s the Year of the Dog, or, if you prefer, DA YEAR OF DA DAWG. Anyway, the new mix is up, check it. The banner comes courtesy of Jeremy Wabiszczwicz, aka Monsters In Disguise dot com. I don’t usually read any magazines, but when I passed by the latest issue of Skyscraper on the newsstand, I just had to pick it up; Jeremy’s cover art was just too nice to pass by.

And I also want to extend a special thanks to Stolen Recordings and Tap Tap for graciously allowing me to include Tap Tap’s “She Does Not Belong” in this month’s mix. The track comes from Stolen’s brand new Compilation disc, which features 21 great little-known English bands. The disc is a limited-edition of 500, in hand-stamped and numbered sleeve, and can be had for £10 via the Stolen Recordings site (and also at Rough Trade Shops).
