A perfect mix tape is truly a thing of beauty. I am pretty good at them, but perfect....? I don't know that I'd go that far. Dave makes perfect mix tapes, and Jensen is a master. August though....August outdid himself with Paul O'Neill. No genre is off limits, so you get JAMES BROWN into STRANGULATED BEATOFFS. You get UNSANE into SMALL FACES. You get DENIECE WILLIAMS into BIG'N. You get COP SHOOT COP into JAMES BROWN (again....and it's the same song, which is genius). YOu get ED HALL because August lived in Texas. The segues are perfect, every song is a banger, I'm just here hoping that he put PISSED JEANS after PAIN TEENS because the band names rhymed and more people need to know WELLINGTON because...well, just trust me. August is a one of a kind, a truly brilliant and beautiful being. And he makes a mean fukkn mix tape. So think about that while you're listening to STEPPENWOLF's "Hippo Stomp" and wondering what you've done with your life on this final day of the traditional work week.
