Mixtape: Summer’s Gone: My Personal Favorites From 2008

It took longer than I wanted, but here’s my end-of-year mix in lieu of the typical “Top 10” albums post. Not every track I enjoyed from the year made it on, as I either ran out of room (trying to keep the mix within 80 minutes) or it didn’t stylistically fit with everything else. Still this mix is a pretty good picture of what I’ve enjoyed over the last year and hopefully you’ll enjoy it as well.
