Shuffled #54: 13 for ‘13

Every other Wednesday either Matt or Alex C-Y share their love of music in an assortment of ways. Shuffled is a podcast whose format is as varied as their tastes in music, so hopefully you won't ever be bored and everyone can find something to enjoy.

The year 2013 is long gone, but before it becomes too late into 2014, let's have a look back at some of the more "traditional" songs and albums to drop over the past year. On this episode, I'm joined once again by my drunken buddies Tyler and Mike, who offer some colorful commentary to the show. While I was busy dodging bottle caps and yelling at Mike to shut up for two seconds, I streamed the show live over on our Mixlr page. Check it out next time I do a live show. It's free to use and doesn't require an account to listen. Show times are random, but I usually post when I'll do one over at our Twitter and Facebook page. Interested in learning what my favorite albums and songs of 2013 were? Read on to find out!

Shuffled: Beautiful World Edition

Every other Wednesday I hit the shuffle button on my 90 gigabytes of music and post the results. I might have to justify some of the stuff in my library, but hopefully it will help inform you of new music -- Or at least be entertaining.

I came out with a pretty interesting mix this week. I like to think of it as showcasing the diversity in the world and serving as the background music. Melt Banana kicks it off strange and alien, because that's what life can be like sometimes, M. Ward features the beautiful simplicity, Weezer fills in for when you just want to rock out, Devo highlights the dark parts of human nature, and Silk Road Ensemble wraps it all up with the true beauty of the world.

That was pretty deep, huh? Yeah, I thought so too. Now, go enjoy the music!
