1/2 The Mixup 2012 [July to Dece] (Part 1) / (Part 2) (Spotify)
Hello Internet,
2012 has come to a close. Once again I have awoken from a haze of champagne and cold pizza to perform my sacred ancient custom: publishing a mixtape of popular music I enjoyed in some capacity or another during the past twelve months. 
Those have been paying attention will notice the following: (1) I actually already published a “midway mix” for 2012 in July. (2) This “second half” of the annual mix was particularly bountiful; weighing in with an impressive 46 tracks of rumpshakery. (3) The mix has been entirely curated on Spotify; which means that many meritorious musical efforts from the past year (e.g. Disasterpeace’s EXCEPTIONAL score to Fez) have been excluded. A tragic but necessary sacrifice in the name of expediency.
As always, here are the rules:
Must be a song I fell in love with in 2012. This doesn’t really aspire to be a “best of” mix for the year but rather tracks that caught my ear through exposure by friends, circumstance, and my own exploration. 
Must have been released RELATIVELY recently. I did bend this rule a bit. Nonetheless the majority of these songs were released in the last 2 years and all within the last decade.  
Must not repeat artists from previous mixes. Two minor exceptions this time: Dan Deacon and Prefuse 73. No regrets.
No Western Art Music. If you’d like to hear some of my WAM playlists, I’d love to share! Feel free to write me.
