My latest, greatest stumble has been Muxtape and it's an awesome site for a slow day at work. It's premise is around trading CD mixes like we used to do back in the day, but instead of burning the mix to a disk, it's all on the web. At first glance, I'm impressed how easily it is to discover new music by listening to other's mixes. It's very easy to click into a random playlist and find several songs you've never heard of before and really find you enjoy them. I think since the site is new (launched 4/25/2008), a lot of early adopters have jumped on it really posting quality music. I'm finding lts of Justice, Ratatat, MGMT & Hot Chip. Check it out on your own, but for now this is replacing my iTunes shuffle playlist.

Muxtape to the rescue

This post is pretty lame rice, but I'm glad that the site is back. It gives me something to do all day while I sit around without a job.
