An American Music Mix

By Scotter | Published: July 3, 2011
I am a member of two Mix CD clubs. They’re great! You get 12 people together and each month someone is responsible for sending the other 11 members a mix. You get new music, new perspectives, all for the price of the effort it takes to make one of these yourself and the subsequent packaging [...]
