THE SEBASTOPOL MIXTAPE Vol. 10

Just a scant few weeks since our last edition, and sneaking in before the Holidays get here so I can work on my year-end list (oh em gee), here's volume ten of the Sebastopol Mixtape, our mix of new, old, and interesting music.



This month we're proud to feature selections from the ridiculously hard-to-track-down Pebbles: Trash Box compilation, a scuzzy 60's psych and garage rock set that's been called Nuggets' older, cooler cousin. Also featured in this edition: new music from Spoon, Hot Chip, and Toro y Moi--not to mention some amazing avant-pop from Sacramento's Pregnant, who're so good I put them here twice. If you like what you hear, check out their brilliant Liquidation on Swans tape from Irvine outfit (& Acrobatics Everyday homies) Life's Blood.

  1. if you dig the pregnant jams, the full-length LIQUIDATION ON SWANS is out on LIFE'S BLOOD -- the demo/forever release is half of the album with some live stuff on the B-side. both are excellent.
