This months BOTM volume is getting released a bit earlier than would be the normal case. I’ll be travelling this weekend and I don’t know when I’ll get a chance to post again {let alone upload loads of music}. Volume 2 is filled with all the good music I could get my hands on and I tried especially hard to find those tracks which may have slipped by you on the first go round. I understand that not everyone can check every blog every single day, I know I can’t, but hopefully through this mishmash of a collection I’ve found something everyone can enjoy.
And enjoy it you shall. This BOTM volume comes wrapped up in the tape of love. Cheers.

Every single one of these tracks is solid from start to end. I absolutely love the Beirut track and Lisa Hannigan has been on my mind ever since, well, everything she’s ever done. These, my friends, are the best of the month for a reason. They really are the best tracks that I found using the power of the interwebs and other various and sundry means of discovery. If you’re only going to download one track, out of all this goodness, I would recommend the track by Beirut. It really is brilliant.
fyi, that radiohead song is actually a live version of the song “blow out” from pablo honey, their debut album
Yep, 22 March 1996 on the radio, Thom Yorke with some members of the Posies, to be precise
thanks for the corrections good readers. i just compile what i find elsewhere. i’ll make sure to try and do more fact checking on future BOTM volumes.
Very Cool! I just discovered your website yesterday and already love it- love the dance music and the special attention to Gossip Girl’s music! Thanks!
love the gary lightbody & lisa hannigan track. thanks for sharing!
I’ve always felt I Feel It All is the best track on the Feist album, but have rarely seen it mentioned in the blog world?!?!?
