mixed tape exchange

ok, so it’s only slightly less pretentious than it sounds, and if it were any less pretentious, it would be called ’8-minute hipster speed dating”. i went tonight, and i have to admit, it was fun. the theme this month was “saddest songs in the world”, which of course i ate right up. the mix i got included “metal heart” by cat power and a selection from beck’s sea change, both of which i had on my mix. it was a match made in indie heaven…that is, until i found out the guy who made it was named devin. i knew it could never work. but he obviously knows his music. as we all do.
