Comment:

wow, why do i come to this site when 90% of the mixes on here are all the same trendy garbage? who fxxxing knows. anywho, this is punk rock, garage, psychedelic and noise rock. little bit of folk and bluesy stuff thrown in for good measure. stream or download from here. i am the radio?

This one's trendy enough for me...love the Lyres, Muddy, DMZ, Celibate Rifles, and Tom Waits.

not sure why you'd join & post at a community if you're just going to diss "90%" of its posters - some good stuff here though

because i like the idea of the site, but i get worn out when i try to comment on people's mixes and a majority of them are all the same mix. what's the point. and i've been a member here for four years or something, it wasn't always so lame.

but that's like saying, "why do I keep going to Easy Street to look through their new arrivals LP section when 90% of it is crap I'm not into?" it's for the golden 10%, of course. but for me the AotM ratio is more like 65/35, and there are usually some jewels even in the midst of the most mundane, trendy mixes. and after a while, you know just where to dig to get rich quick. like this mix, for example. looking forward to this one.

man, i just dropped half my paycheck over there today. i get you, but i'm a lot more patient when it comes to digging through lp stacks, then i am looking at the same weak mixes over here. it just gets disheartening for me.

Oh you're so trendy posting a mix 90% of which most AOTMers don't know. Get you, Mr Hip ;) The trendy garbage on here I like is Francoise Hardy, Busy Signals and the Clean.

ha. that's how it goes. either you've heard of everything on a mix or you've heard of 3 artists. it's an odd balance.

Well, I've heard of, uhm, at least 13. Does that make me middle of the road or something? Fine looking mix o' stuff here. And, well, don't comment on the 90% that "are all the same mix." There, problem solved.

is this one of those quiz mixes where you answer the question and win a copy? i love those. i think you come to this site to let off steam. no wait, it's to promote your podcast. perhaps you just want to see how the other 90% live. do i win?

now it's definitely more about self-promotion since i rarely find something i'd actually want to hear. you win a pony.

Each to his own mate, music's all in the ears of the beholder. The site is worth it for the gems posted by tried and trusted friends. For all I know 90 % of this could be shit but the 10 % I know works for me!
