FREE SHIT: A389 2014 DIGITAL MIXTAPE

The people at A389 Recordings may have temporarily lost their minds, but their lost sanity is our gain. First, at the A389 webstore all orders are 25 percent off this week with the following code: A3892014MIXTAPE. Second, all downloads at the label’s Bandcamp site are set to free/pay what you want for the week as well.

And third, A389 has released a free mixtape that includes more than 50 tracks by a host of excellent bands — and many of the tracks are brand new.

I don’t recognize the names of all 50+ bands, but I sure do recognize a lot of them, and it’s a great list — the kind of list that makes you eager to explore the names of the bands you don’t know.

There’s one more giveaway worth mentioning. Decibel magazine is running a promotion at its web site that will reward five readers with A389 prize packs based on the most entertaining/inventive comments regarding a new band they discover via the mixtape. The details about that are here
