ABCs of 2010 Music

OK, this is self-indulgent, but, like, this is the internet. I made a mix of songs I like from 2010. The idea here is that you can download this, make a playlist of it on your itunes & put it in alphabetical order by artist & it will be the playlist below. Many of the releases were not from 2010 but I first heard all of this in 2010.

It is 104 songs & is nine & a half hours long.

So take your shoes off:

This is made up of songs that are on my computer, so it misses out on the music I’ve been listening to on vinyl, including Machaut, Ockechem, Bastard Noise, The Good Ones, Gehenna, Witch Hunt, Vomir, Expo 70, Envy, Salem, Damian Jurardo, Wolvserpent, High Wolf, Cloudland Canyons, Fruit Bats, Woodsman, Jemaa El Fna, Brahms string quartets & other crap.

I don’t think I bought a cd this year. I was given two cds this year & they’re both really good. You should look them up: Jacopo Andreini, Arrington de Dionyso & Scott Rosenberg’s Roamin’ & Tim Barry’s 28th & Stonewall.

Here’s Scott Pinkmountain (nee Rosenberg) playing some music:



Here’s Tim Barry playing “Prosser’s Gabriel":

Here’s that Future Islands song:
