The Young Lady’s Post-Punk Handbook
A good mixtape is a narrative, bringing together a well selected series of songs in a seamless progression. Musicophilia has posted a three part mix of post-punk female led bands and it’s a suitable primer – inspiring, comprehensive and lots of fun. The songs and bands included on the mixes are listed below. For full track listing info, liner notes and anecdotes check out Musicophilia’s blog entries (linked below) and download the ca. 45 minute mixes direct from his site.
Hmm, maybe I should start doing this mix thing again…
