This ScissorKast, while a bit scattered, is perhaps one of the strongest playlists I’ve put together in a while. A combination of my favorite tracks from 2009 and a taste of hotly anticipated music from 2010 it meanders down a number of musical avenues including electronic, instrumental rock, indie, folk, you name it. Hard to weave something this varied into one cohesive mix without giving it the Langolf treatment, so bear with me. By the end of it all I hope you agree 2009 was a fantastic year for music.

Don’t apologize for getting these out haphazardly. They’re always worth the wait :-)

Thanks man. Appreciated. However, i will apologize for a few overzealous moves on the mixer, bringing that Jay Reatard song in prematurely. Wasn’t gonna re-record 75 minutes. But I’m happy with this one. Have another one set up right on the heels of this one, so the wait won’t be too long.
