"Puppet wrangler? There weren't any puppets in this movie!" – Crow T. Robot
A short month, so an uncharacteristically short mix:
I’m sure I listened to some other songs last month, but that’s what stuck with me.
For whatever it’s worth, here’s basically everything I was listening to in January:

It’s months like this that make putting together a short year-end “best of” mix so very difficult. Still, I really like this mix. There’s some really great music here.
Every month, I put together a mix of new music. Some of it’s just new to me, or even just rediscovered music, and I’ve been doing it for a couple of years now. Sometimes I get a bit carried away, but I have fun doing it. And I have fun sharing those mixes, on occasion, with others.
Here’s my December 2010 mix:
And here’s a “Best of” mix I mailed out to a few people, in lieu of Christmas cards…and, well, after Christmas.

Believe me, even winnowing that down to 30 songs, on two discs, was a challenge. And, although it’s really sort of a Christmas song, and therefore a week too late, I just really like this song from Tim Minchin, “White Wine in the Sun.” It seems like a good note to end on for the year.
The one good thing about almost nobody ever taking me up on my offer of a monthly mix CD exchange? On the not at all rare occasion that I go a little crazy and cobble together a mix this long, which by its length requires a minimum of two CDs, I don’t have to do anything except pleasantly post it here and say, hey, here’s some stuff I’ve been listening to recently.
So hey, here’s some stuff I’ve been listening to recently.
Here’s what I was listening to in September.
