twentytenmixes.com http://twentytenmixes.com/blog twentytenmixes.com Wordpress weblog Wed, 22 Sep 2010 15:45:32 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 en hourly 1 Changes http://twentytenmixes.com/blog/?p=118 http://twentytenmixes.com/blog/?p=118#comments Wed, 22 Sep 2010 15:45:32 +0000 admin http://twentytenmixes.com/blog/?p=118 Hello everyone! There’s some changes going on here at TTM that I wanted to let you know about:

First of all, I’m putting the blog itself on hold (not the mixes, just the blog). Making these mixes takes a lot of time, and distributing them all over the place (both physically and digitally) is a big part of that. It’s been especially time-consuming to keep updating the blog in addition to the website, and it’s somewhat redundant, so I’m going to take a break from this.

What this means for you:

- To get the new mixes, go straight to the Playlists page of the TTM website
- You can stream or download the mixes straight from that page (streaming opens a pop-up player)
-  To receive updates of new mix posts, you can do one of three things:
1.  Follow twentytenmixes on twitter
2.  If you use Google Reader as your RSS feed reader, you can manually add http://www.twentytenmixes.com/playlists.html to your subscriptions. I don’t have an actual RSS feed on the site, but Google will automatically detect changes (when I post a new mix) and update your Reader accordingly
3.  If you’re really old-school, I can send you an email update when a new mix is posted. Just email me to request these updates

Hopefully this works out okay for everyone. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks for your support!!

Jesse

My headphones busted last week and I’m waiting on replacements, which means I’ve not been able to get all my hours of new-music scouring done. Sorry for the delay – but we’ll be back to our regularly scheduled mixage shortly.

Thanks,

In honor of the summer heatwave here’s a decent warm weather mix for your listening pleasure. Just when I had written off We Are Scientists this new single pops up and gets my attention. FISHING’s new tune is summer-licious, as is the Best Coast/Kid Cudi jam – sorry if that’s not your style, but it’s so fitting I couldn’t NOT include it. A few more treats included for your enjoyment too. Have fun!
