It’s been quite a while. My sincere apologies. Most if this is what I pasted my summer with as I chugged away at life.

Some Kind Of Awesome: [Listen] The xx - 'Coexist' (Full Album Stream):

somekindofawesome:

The buzz around this new album has been huge, and it’s easy to see why. The xx won the Mercury Music Prize for their debut, _xx_, and it’s seemed like a lifetime waiting for the London band to follow it up. It’s only been 3 years in truth. Today the wait is over as they’re streaming _Coexist_…

oh yes.

Well hello and welcome to the third and final stop on the FUCK! I’m in My Twenties blog tour. Emma Koenig started off on tuesday at Create This Look For Less and yesterday at Backpack Block Party! Now she’s here? Or I’m here? We’re all here together, on the internet.

In promotion of Emma’s rad new book, F*CK! I’m in My Twenties, I made this new MIX which you can DOWNLOAD and enjoy.

“ALL I KNOW’S THAT I DON’T KNOW” MIX
30 songs for your twenties and beyond!
(DOWNLOAD NOW)

There’re a few thematic brush strokes going on here, but really these are just a bunch of songs I like - some new and some old, a lot of female vocalists. Some of them remind me of that exciting mid-twenties scramble for purpose, love, career, and understanding. Some remind me of dating woes. And some are just songs I like. [Tracklist]

And hey: Re-blog this post to win a free copy of the book F*ck! I’m in My Twenties along with a USB drive with bunch of various dumb mixes I’ve made, thrown in for fun! *A winner will be randomly selected.

Download the “All I Know’s That I Don’t Know” mix here
(30 tracks, 120.6 MB)!

THE THIRD AND FINAL STOP ON THE FIIMT BLOG TOUR!!
