Look what we found on Listening Post again. Roni Brunn from Brand Records assembled an Opentape mix consisting of 17 versions of the song
including covers by Thom Yorke and The Posies, Cat Power, Metallica
(comedic style), Pavement and a particularly rousing live rendition
from The Beastie Boys. The mix also contains a few mash-ups of the
song, with The Jackson Five LCD Soundsystem, Green Day and, of course,
Jay-Z. That LCD Soundsytem mash is by the one and only Aggro1, this was the point whe we started to care about this playlist.

BTW, Aggro1 is back! he has a new mash!!!!!!!!
Guess what, a Katy Perry mash??!?

The Fairtilizer just posted an interview with Chromeo’s Dave 1 and they also have a playlist consists of his 10 favorite songs of 2008. Sweet, but it is not too early for this year roundup things? ;)

muxtape is out , 8tracks is in
or something like this

With user-generated playlist site Muxtape shut down for an indefinite amount of time, newly launched 8tracks.com is hoping to fill the void left in the mixtape community. Like Muxtape, the site allows users to upload content from their personal music libraries and create playlists for others to stream. The site also allows users to create playlists using content uploaded to the site by others.

Unlike Muxtape, the site does not allow users to see what track will play next or to skip forward and backward through tracks they might not enjoy. This is because 8tracks operates under a compulsory license as a non-interactive webcaster, as mandated by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

8tracks was founded by David Porter, formerly the director of business development at Live365. [via Billboard ]

Mix Turtle is a nice and easy to use music search engine where you can organize your finds into cool playlists. We did a quick test and we did a summer chill playlist . The Turtle finds almost every artists, even mashups, but when we wanna play the songs sometimes it errored. Maybe its the problem in our end test it and send us your playlists! [via Attuworld]
