Year End Mix: Dark Horses of 2007

I made a mixtape for the end of the year, and now look: I’m really late sharing it with you. It’s called Dark Horse, and it’s a bunch of songs that I loved this year that aren’t all necessarily Top 10 picks. Enjoy it, and let me know if you’d like more info on any of the bands. Once again, it’s one long-ass .mp3 file, and features a really flowing transition between each song (or that’s the hope, anyway). The songs and artists are here for you though, in case you love something and want to find it by itself. We also wrote a little about some dark horse artists over at Austinist, if you’re interested.
