MOST DEPRESSING MUXTAPE EVER

A few days ago I was randomly browsing Muxtape and just started listing to one for no particular reason.  I don't recall when the realization occurred, but at some point it dawned on me that I had discovered what may be the most depressing collection of 12 songs ever. I hope the compiler of this mux is doing okay. Here is his or her playlist. Note the name of each song. There is nothing subtle here.

1. Belle & Sebastian - I Don't Love Anyone
2. The Radio Dept - I Don't Need Love, I've Got My Band
3. Neutral Milk Hotel - Song Against Sex
4. Ballboy - Sex is Boring
5. Kind of Like Spitting - Sex Ruins Everything
6. The 6ths - Falling Out of Love (With You)
7. New Order - Love Less
8. The Get Up Kids - No Love
9. The Magnetic Fields - I Don't Really Love You Anymore
10. Squarepusher - Love Will Tear Us Apart
11. The Velvet Teen - No One Will Ever Love You
12. Ryan Adams - Love is Hell

Listen here.

OH SHIT! THAT'S THE JAM!

Oh shit! That's the jam!

DOWNLOADING MUXTAPES

You would have thought that Muxtape (previously mentioned) would have included a "search" functionality, but I suppose the lack of this feature gave the site a certain charm or "authenticity" that reflected the linear nature of the original cassette mixtapes. On the other hand it's the 21st century and it's a real pain in the aural arse to not be able to directly find a particular artist or song.

Someone addressed this issue by creating Muxfind which allows you to search Muxtape for specific artists (no songs). Yay!

And I'm only the messenger here folks: But someone else created a Greasemonkey script that allows you to download, theoretically, as mp3s the songs that others have uploaded to Muxtape.

MY FAVORITE MUXTAPE. WHAT'S YOURS?

This is currently my favorite muxtape on teh Internets right now. What is muxtape? It's a simple website allows you to upload your music and create your own online mixtape. You're too late: icouldbeyourboyfriend.muxtape.com is already taken.

Do send me what you've created and I want to post a listing of all the muxtapes created by my friends and readers. And then maybe we could have a vote on who is the best. The worst one would be kicked off the island.

This is my ridiculously amazing muxtape. I wouldn't even click on it because frankly, if my muxtape were a club YOU would not be allowed past the velvet rope.
