Well, Life Just Bounces mixtapes were pretty sporadic this year. It started strongly enough, with an early hiccup in March and, then, er, May, and by July everything had basically gone to the dogs. Oh well: in a spirited last-minute effort, here's a mix for December, themed for no good reason around the colour brown. Solid, reliable brown is the color of earth and is abundant in nature.

I went a few weeks without going on a non-music related rant and I was pretty proud of myself, but that streak ends tonight. This morning I got an email from the writer of a blog that shall remain anonymous. I'm not concealing his identity in order to protect him, I'm keeping him anonymous because what this stupid twat wants more than anything is publicity and exposure, and I sure as fuck am not going to help him with that bullshit.

Taking a Bowie Break for now, just some random stuff tonight. I have a big post planned for Friday night since I'll be busy next week with Christmas [...]
