Today is Labor Day and I’m a week into school, so for me, and many others, summer 2011 is over and done with, even though my thermometer and the official calendar would disagree. Last night it cooled down here in Austin to “West Texas evening” degrees, which is good enough for me to declare that autumn approacheth, though it’s probably going to take its sweet time getting here. Anywho, as is the case this time every year, I have compiled a short list of my “songs of the summer.” Some people like lazy-time summers filled with laid-back tunes and relaxing choruses. Me, I’m more of a “let’s dance all season long” kind of guy, and this selection reflects that. What are your favorite songs from the past 3-4 months? What were you rocking while dehydrating?
Every Saturday, I post a 15-20 minute podcast featuring some tracks I’ve been jamming the previous week, as well as some commentary and random musings from yours truly. Enjoy!
Tracklist:
Fat Trel – Rolling
Toro y Moi – New Beat (Star Slinger Dancehall Mix)
PAPA – I Am the Lion King
Skrillex – Rock N Roll (Will Take You to the Mountain)
Once every three months I list the best of what I heard in albums/songs/remixes for the quarter. I do this to personally keep up with all the awesome music I hear, as it ultimately helps me at the end of the year when I do my overall listing for the previous twelve months. I also do it to introduce you cool cats to tunes you may have missed independently.

I know I posted about Star Slinger yesterday, and I think my average is like twice a week practically, but screw it, I love the guy. And if you don’t you’re in the wrong place. The UK beatmaker posted his new Fabric Mix, available for download on his Soundcloud. Check it below.
Star Slinger, one of my consistent favorites, has posted a new mix for the Yours Truly blog, and it’s banging, as is customary for anything Star Slinger does. Listen below.
