SIX + SIX: The Debut of Our Exclusive Mix Series, Featuring Bat for Lashes, the Monks, Death and Titus Andronicus

CassetteAt long last, self-titled launches its first exclusive mix series. We’re calling it Six + Six, and the idea is simple: You get twelve songs–two sides (A and B) with six songs each. Easy. In this debut edition, Associate Editor Aaron Richter selects his favorite music of the moment, some old, some new, with a vague theme that revolves around the French and Paul Westerberg. Or nothing at all. Enjoy!
