Shameless Plug

This is just the best music magazine ever:
http://www.pastemusic.com

Every issue comes with the coolest mix CD ever. I can just stack the CD carousel with Paste mixes, hit "shuffle", and live happily every after. The only problem is that on each one, I find about 4-8 songs of artists whose CDs I just have to run out and buy.

Artists who I first heard through "Paste" that I've bought so far include:

Over the Rhine
Sun Kil Moon
Erin McKeown
The Flatlanders
Belle and Sebastian
Pete Yorn
Clem Snide
Rober Earl Keen

Then there are all the musicians I already liked and that Paste was cool enough to include more of for me, like Wanda Jackson, Juliana Hatfield, The Blind Boys of Alabama, and The Be Good Tanyas.

I'm in a happy little musical vortex over here.
