Download: Tame Impala - "41 Mojitos" (Poolside Dub Canyons Remix)
Sometime during the fine year that was 2009, Canyons took the musical liberty of getting all up in fellow Western Australians Tame Impala's track "41 Mosquitoes" and in the process transformed it into a a dusty, hallucinogenic dub remix appropriately titled: "41 Mojitos" (Poolside Dub Remix).

#41: Tao Lin - 'Calmly Emotional' Mixtape
Tao Lin (b. 1983) is the Brooklyn based poet/author responsible for last year's cult hit novella, Shoplifting From American Apparel. His anticipated second novel, Richard Yates, is due to be released by Melville House in September.
Tao: This mixtape contains songs I've consistently listened to the past 1-7 years. I have ordered the songs in a manner that seems satisfying to me. The tone of this mixtape could be described as "calmly, idly, nostalgically, at-times 'energetically' emotional." I have excluded songs that would, to a certain degree, disturb that tone. One could elaborate on the tone by describing it as "low-level, peaceful, considered 'depression'/'inactivity' experienced mostly with acceptance and sometimes with gratitude." Other mixtapes/playlists by me can be viewed here (American Apparel) and here (top 25 most-played).
