sys50 :: RING ROAD SUPERMARKET


For this very special* awesome mix tape, I've decided to unveil this blog's new direction: Amazon.com-aided musical discovery. Now, instead of simply "listening" to me ramble on about my current favorite songs, you can actually hear samples of them and, if you like what you hear, purchase them on the fly. However, since A) Amazon's MP3 store doesn't have EVERYTHING and B) sometimes (always) free is more fun, following the widget below you'll find a list of all this mix tape's selections and, whenever available, links to free, artist-sanctioned downloads. (I suppose kids with craptastic Internet connections will appreciate Clause A as well....)

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the new Fly High, Duluth!
