For Don’t Die On My Doorstep, we’ve always presented a new mini-mix every month showcasing the kind of sounds you’d hear at the club night. Originally, this was hosted by the ancient Myspace music player, eventually migrated to Mixpod, but now all those kinds of things will be collected and posted in one place: here. This is a trial, I might turn it into a more regular podcast later on.

Next, a 1966 obscurity from The Voxmen (check them out at Garage Hangover!), followed by Woven Bones’ Ramones cover. This was included on the Yeti #8 cd from last year – #9 of the magazine is already out and #10 pending soon. Then, Hannah & Raven of Grass Widow who are on the San Francisco comp In a Cloud that came out early this year.
