Monday Mixtape, Vol. 89

All sorts of random tracks on this week's playlist. The Preatures are back in the mix with my favorite track from a pretty lackluster sophomore album. Tame Impala released three B-sides from the Currents album, one of which is the instrumental "Powerlines." If you want to see how the brilliant Kevin Parker makes a track, check out the video on his website: https://www.tameimpala.com

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY BANDS WITH NAMES IN ALL CAPS NOW???

Nonetheless, I hope you enjoy the remainder of tunes which give you a bit of a jumpstart to your week! Cheers.
