Okay, so, a couple of hiccups. I would like to note the following amends:
Algonad: I already had that song in my library, so while looking for the ones I didn't have, I told myself I'd throw that one in later. Never did. Sorry.
Zack: I originally couldn't find that Eskimeaux track and was going to get back to it, but never followed up. The Speedy Ortiz track was the last song to be cut, so if it's not too uncool, I'm just going to reintroduce that one.
Whoever's supplemental tracks I ended up cutting (still haven't checked who submitted what again): I debated between just adding the previously noted tracks, or to keep true to the original 90 minute idea. I came down on the latter.
IN ADDITION
Should you feel like it, I've added a ratings bar to this post. Let us know what you think of this years mix (and if you're saucy enough, tell us why below).

I've created a revised Spotify playlist (I also couldn't find the Vinny Cha$e song), however I can't figure out a way to get it to play in order (again, song order was heavily considered). In that case, one could conceivably check this out (EDIT: if you want a link to the mix in a way that can loaded the opposite of up, email me at my user name (no spaces or puncuation)/at\the domain of this here website.
It plays in order from Spotify just fine on my laptop. As I recall from last year, it won't play in order on a mobile device if you have a free account.
Yep, this is correct.
Got it working now. Might have been a work thing. Looking forward to giving it a full listen before too long.
You are going to love the third song.
"Shut Up and Dance" is one of the Roommate's favorite songs, and I gotta say it's quite infectious. Walk The Moon are playing at Loring Park on the 22nd and it's a free show, if anyone else is interested.
Didn't I pick that Alabama Shakes song? I really don't remember so obviously not offended.
I listened; I enjoyed. Good job, citizens.
For those who are curious:
More fun:
Yeah, I'm not so good with reading. Or following rules.
My spreadsheet is here--not that anyone around here cares much for spreadsheets.
OH YOU
Just getting to this now. Carpenter Brut and Sturgill Simpson are two (wildly disparate) revelations for me; thanks for the suggestions, Citizens.
Naturally, it's a strong listen throughout.
Thanks again, everyone! Same time next year (except 2 months earlier and on time).
