Mixtape – For The Sake of Song

For The Sake Of The Song August 2014 by Neil Martin on Mixcloud

A great philosopher once remarked, “It’s the freakin weekend.” And everyone knows the best way to celebrate the end of the working week is with an epic mixtape, right? So somethingyousaid.com’s Neil Martin has lovingly put together an hour of awesomeness for your delectation. Your ears can thank him later, but for now, just kick back and turn the volume up to a neighbour-annoyingly loud level for a magnificent combination of forgotten 90s UK grunge, outlaw country, Malaysian psych pop, 70s stoner rock, lost 80s strangeness and more. Nothing yells WEEKEND like Malaysian psych pop, and anyone who tells you otherwise is a goddam fool.
