I Am The Crime
A Fine Mess
A Fine Mess

I don’t particularly like doing best of lists but I felt the need to make up for my slack around here lately, hence this mix. Basically it’s songs that stood out for me during the year or represent albums I listened to a lot. It’s probably a bit inconclusive because a) I can’t remember everything I listened to and, b) I currently have a headache which gives me a free pass for not spending a lot of time compiling this. The mix is divided into two parts and consist of the following artists and tracks:
Part 1 [Download]
Autopilot Is For Lovers – “Come Now”
Hello Seahorse! – “El Segundo”
A Horse And His Boy – “Sidewalks”
Tegan And Sara – “On Directing”
The Mary Onettes – “Symmetry”
Noah And The Whale – “Blue Skies”
Phantogram – “Futuristic Casket”
Bat For Lashes – “Sleep Alone”
Linda Mirada – “Solo”
Beach House – “Silver Soul”
Kent – “Krossa Allt”
Band Of Skulls – “Bomb”
deVries – “What a Wasted Life”
Gliss – “Lovers In The Bathroom”
Florence and The Machine – “Cosmic Love”
Part 2 [Download]
Taken By Trees – “The Greyest Love Of All”
POLLYester – “Run In My Stocking”
Lay Low – “I Forget It’s There”
City Of Satellites – “Control”
Friska Viljor – “If I Die Now”
Jesca Hoop – “Whispering Light”
Zero 7 – “Swing”
Little Dragon – “A New”
Audionom – “Girls and Boys”
Stuck In The Sound – “Quais”
Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros – “Up From Below”

Rawrrrrrr! hehe.
nevermind
Anyway. I’ve a question.
Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson has this song called ‘woodfriend’ .
I like that song, but it sounds like something else.
So, for you and your readers, WTF is ripping him off, or (less likely) who is he ‘inspired’ / ‘influenced’ by ?
PS. I’m nearly sure the copycat is from last years 09 releases. Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson’s self-titled album that had this track came out in 08, I think.
Thanks

Hey Terry,
got intrigued by your question and even though it did not come to me, a quick search revealed the connection! Try the link to the following blog post (not mine, no relation to it), it says which song it takes from.
