Put together another mixtape, not sure if it’s a great mixtape for the summer or if it’s just the end of July and I made a mixtape. It’s not very ‘summery’ for a mixtape that’s called Jams for July Vol. 2. I also don’t think it’s very creative, doesn’t have any new new jams nor does it unearth any forgotten jams from yesteryear. Partially, I blame my external hard drive not working for that. Any nerds out there know how to make your computer recognize your external hard drive again? If not, I have a bright blue paper weight.
Anyway, anyone who knows what a RSS feed is has probably heard and forgot about most of these songs already. Despite everything I’ve written to seemingly make you not want to download it, it’s still a good mixtape guys! Knocks pretty good. Pretty standard indie rock fare, with a four song Professor Longhair - Raekwon ft. Mobb Deep - The Roots - Junior Kimbrough cover portion stuck in the back half. The Raekwon ft. Mobb Deep song is a heater.

Also for those who don’t want to download a file, I created a 8tracks playlist too. Not sure if I really like the site or how user friendly it is but it’s not bad.
