"Summertime lovin'--Lovin' in the summer (time)"

With the exception of a tape I'm working on now, the last mix that I made was May 17th of this year. After being put together, it was shipped off to a friend in California? Arizona? Alaska? I can't remember who got it. I didn't even keep a track listing for it after each side was converted to mp3 and forgotten. I found a scan of the artwork, this morning, and just sat through Side A & B mp3s while doing homework. So here's the forgotten mixtape that was meant to be this summer's soundtrack:

Ketchup and Rubber Buns

Sorry about the hiatus. Unfortunately, I didn't get to make too many mix tapes this summer. Real life tends to get in the way. However, I was given a couple tapes over the break. My pal & partner in the analog revolution, Kisston, made me a tape for my birthday called, "I'M NOT DRUNK!"

Pretty dern thoughtful.

Pen pal, Brian Polk, sent me a really bad ass tape.
