I've been talking up making a mixtape of all my favorite music of 2011 for months now, and now that 2011 is complete, I figured that I should compile it and post it here. It has 58 tracks from 50~ or so artists and covers most of my favorite songs of 2011. A few experimental avant-garde tracks were left out (This being an example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyjlpi2VHtI) and I'll always assume that I probably forgot something. The tracks are in no particular order. It's pretty much a guarantee that you aren't going to like all of these songs, but I hope that you do find something like and check out any of these great artists.

16. Dreamin' - Big K.R.I.T.

Didn't know Warmonger was in a band.

+ 98 internets

its kinda sad that I dont know any of these.

Edit: To me

39. La Dispute - King Park

I am proud. Been to more LD shows than I can count and I fucking love them.

I picked up Wildlife on a whim and a few random comments that said it sounded somewhat like At The Drive In and ended up really enjoying it. I don't listen to a lot of other post-2003~ post-hardcore, but that Touche Amore (which I'm sure you're already aware of) album this year was also pretty good, though it didn't quite make whatever vague cutoff I set for this mixtape.

(Also thanks for pointing out the one track where I put the artist name before the track name, I knew I did it somewhere in that list but wasn't diligent enough to seek it out.)

Ahh well atleast you picked up La Dispute! They're starting to get more recognition which is good. They're pretty diverse in that they remind me a lot of the euro-post hardcore band despite being from grand rapids. They have plenty of splits/EPs/albums so get your hands on as much as you can! Their "Hear hear" EPs are less of songs and more poetry like and I adore them. For more intense stuff check out their "somewhere at the bottom of the river between vega and altair" album.

Touche Amore is pretty good also, I like them a lot. Overall I enjoy most of the music on your list and I'd say its a great summarization of good music in 2011.

Searched up that La Dispute - King Park song. That shit was like a bad death scene from a bad movie where the main villain gets fatally stabbed or something and gives like 10 minute speech.

La Dispute isn't for everyone. I didn't like it the first time I heard them forsure.

sick mixtape bro, I'd say 80% of it is good, which is pretty rad for one of these things

Thanks in advance for introducing me to The Psychic Paramount, I can already tell I'm going to get really into them in the near future

Their second album (which DDB is off of) is really great, but I have to say that their first album Gamelan Into Mink Supernatural is their best. Its more rough edged and less instrumentally complex, but damn if it isn't one of the most engaging noise albums of all time.

So yeah I forgot some songs and made a bonus tracks mixtape featuring 20 never before heard songs*! Not as much as variety as the big one, but still quite a bit of out there stuff. Have fun and thanks for letting me indulge in this shit.

*haha no

I've recently reset all the Rapidshare links cause some people were having trouble redownloading or whatever. Also, I've already begun work on this year's playlist and my god is it going to be heavy. More Grimes and Death Grips tracks, surprise

Have a preview track:

I'd just like to say thanks again for doing this dude. Quite a few of the mixtape tracks have made it onto my driving playlist for next year when I'm commuting between home/Purdue.
