Wild Tonic Monthly Mixer: June 2010

with 3 comments

July is here and that means I get to share my most-played tracks from June! I hope you’ve been enjoying the past mixtapes because there are some gems in there I wish I had the time to dedicate entire posts to.

Last month’s mixtape was geared toward more electronic-based songs but this month I spent a lot of time listening to a lot of great indie rock tunes such as new ones from Los Angeles’ Seasons who just released their EP, “Winter.” Of course, Australia’s Tame Impala is also included again as they are my most current obsession. I’ve also included another Televsion cover from The Henry Clay People who also recently released an album. You can also find their rendition of “Glory” on the L’Aventure album.

However, for those of you are more inclined to dig the dance tracks -  don’t worry! I got you covered with Delphic’s “Counterpoint” along with a few remixes of some great tunes such as Local Natives‘ “Sun Hands” by Russian Adults and yes – a Rihanna track. Just don’t knock it until you hear this remix. Gentlemen Thieves managed to get me to listen to Rihanna on repeat with their remix of “Rude Boy.” As much as I also like the original, their rendition blows it out of the water.

I should confess something though. I’ve been listening to Wild Nothing’s Gemini quite a bit this past month as well but the track, “Your Rabbit Feet” just surfaced in the last few days via a sold out EP titled “Evertide.” I haven’t really been spinning this track for a month but have a strong feeling that will happen in the near future. I just had to share it as soon as I could. Long live guitar pop!

Grab the latest Wild Tonic mixtape below and enjoy!
