Anonymous asked: The February mixtape is awesome! Can't wait for this month's mixtape! PS. I have a request - could you upload the entire mixtape as a .zip? Mediafire sucks and makes you download each track individually which takes forever if we want the whole mix! Thanks :)
Thanks for your comment, I’m happy you enjoyed February’s mix tape. March is on its way. Can you recommend a service? I agree, MediaFire DOES take forever, even to upload.
So, here goes. Took me two days (in which I accomplished little else). Most of these are already a few months (or even years) old, but chances are, you may discover something new in there somewhere. A click on the cover will take you to the mix. Enjoy!

Let’s do this!
I’ve been toying with the idea of starting my own playlist for a while now. I love The Indie Rock Playlist by Jonathan Hunt and BIRP and don’t know what I’d do without them. I physically need my fix of new Indie music every month or I feel I’d go insane. So, thanks to you guys and everybody involved for all the hard work you put in every month!
A while ago I started picking my favorites off those monthly lists and assembling them on mix tapes for road trips. Occasionally I’d add a song or two I’d found elsewhere, most likely on this beautiful station we have in Berlin, the name of which can be recovered from the blog title. ;) Lately, I’ve found myself adding more and more of “my own” finds on these mix tapes which is why I figured I might just give it a shot. It’s nothing groundbreaking, just another playlist, I can’t even promise to do it monthly. It’s going to be rather short, though, in keeping with my tradition of the mix tape, fitting on a CD.
I hope you enjoy my picks and finds. Feedback and suggestions are always appreciated. :)
