MIXTAPE: NUMBER TWO (The Junction Between Summer and Fall)

It's been a while since I've posted a mixtape, but I thought it prudent to pass this along; seeing as it rained today for the first time in a long while, I find myself pulled to songs of this grouping: fleeting, caught, and residual (to be obscure).

01 ::: Panda Bear - Bros (edit)
02 ::: Gang Gang Dance - Egowar
03 ::: Mixel Pixel - You're The Kind of Girl
04 ::: Bonobo - Change Down / The Sugar Rhyme
05 ::: Broken Social Scene - Lover's Spit
06 ::: The Robot Ate Me - We Were Human
07 ::: Sunburned Hand of the Man - Butterfly Mask
08 ::: Liars - Sunset Rodeo
09 ::: Tel Aviv - History (alt)
10 ::: Brightblack Morning Light - Everybody Delight
