Just another mixtape, with really no other idea behind it than putting a few great songs together. Also, this could serve as a nice introduction to american indie-rock. Title from the Daniel Johnston song.

wow. wow. i am in love with the giant sand version of "blue marble girl." and you've packed too many other wonderful picks on here to mention. i've been curious about the elk city for a while, though- what's it like?

Jordana : I guess Elk City sound like an archetypal college American indie-rock band, with obvious influences such as Yo La Tengo and Pavement. They're very enjoyable nonetheless. A few mp3 here : http://www.elkcity.net/mp3.html
Jeff : an email will be coming your way shortly.
