New Favs in 1 Convenient Mix !

Hey lil vegemites,

I have so many new songs to show you, I haven't done a playlist for a while, I apologise. This week I am doing something a lil different. Rather than making a ginormous playlist I put all the new and cool songs (not all new but all cool) into a mix for you convenience! ^_^. I don't normally post my mixes on this lil blog because I like to keep it separate but in the case we have here today, I have too many track I wanna show you and we both know ppl skip through long playlists because the world is a lazy, instant craving place isn't it.

If you would like to know why the mix is titled 'Shit Happens', pls read the description under the mix :) S/O Henrik The Artist, Babeisland and Swick for appearing the most times in this mix, congratulations. Amongst them there is bulk Trekkie Trax, LuckyMe and DUCKY that I hope the whole world hears and loves. I'll have a full track listing by tomorrow but if you can't wait that long for a track ID you can ask me either by putting a lil comment on the mix or send me a message on my FB page here.

If me making mixes is news to you and you wanna hear my others they are all here. Ok that's all, soz this was boring :( The mix is way more fun I promise. Also, I have a post to prep u for Laneway coming up and some rlly cool mixes from friends coming soon that are all super exciting so pls don't leave me, ever. xxxx

New Update Avail.

Well hey there slush puppy, thanks for stopping by.

I haven't had a chance to make a playlist of rlly kool stuff in a while so i'm taking this moment of freedom to do just that. I kinda feel like I'm that annoying update that comes up on your computer screen telling you that you need to upgrade your software or whatever it is, you don't really need to but you probably should. Well, that is exactly what i'm doing here just trying to help u, pls listen to me I have good intentions, you will be glad to have utilised my services in the long run.

I'm playing a bit of catch up from the past few weeks but I think i've managed to narrow down my top 10 tracks. You already know that I try to please everyone so hang in there if you're not feeling one of them, press skip or something I don't care, just know that you will find something in here to take home.

Heres a fun fact that has nothing to do with much, but seeing as this playlist contains M.I.A I am going to take advantage of this opportunity to slip this amazing trivia in:

Q. What is my favourite song of all time ever in life, never will be beaten, can't be outdone, pls play at my funeral I swear I don't mind if it's a bit inappropriate.

A. M.I.A - Paper Planes

wow riveting inside scoop, mind blown, so much exclusive information!

K cool cya l8r bye

3, 2, 1 we have lift off, until next time, yours faithfully, Kritty. xxx

Mid-Week MP3s

Hey swizzle sticks,

It's about that time for another playlist and I thought instead of using my free time to do my assignments, i'd write this instead. So time management could be better but these are the things I do for you, you're so welcome, it really is my pleasure.

Ok class, hands up if you like guitars, keep your hands up. Who likes pop? Woo yeah, keep your hands up. What about electronic beats? Fabulous, keep those hands up. Future bass? Brilliant keep 'em high. Where's my trap king and queens, hands up? Wow look, everyone in the whole world has their hand up. This is perfect because that means everyone in the world will find something they can crush on in the weeks playlist. Mission accomplished, good job Kristy Barker, you've done it again.

Another week, another load of newly harvested tracks. This week the "Australian Made" stamp goes to  S U N D A Y, Female, Feki and Grrl Pal, who are all Triple J Unearthed lil babies and also to Melbourne boy, Air Max '97. All these weet-bix kids are blossoming as I type this and even more as you're reading this so keep you're ears up for more things to come from them.

Have the best time,

Love Kritty xxx

Weekend Faves - Feb 6 / Big Ups: Van She

Hi how are you? Thats good, oh you know not much i've just been getting my Dora Explorer on this week and looking for hidden little gems in the inter webs, and I found some big fat nugs of gold, let me tell you. So boys, let down your man buns, girls, whip out that leather bralette, its time to get your freak on. This week I found my new favourite songs woohoo.

Firstly, some background info to help you understand why I am so obsessed with these songs this week; I love Van She, thats pretty much all you need to know. So that brings me to 2 (dos) new tracks, numero uno is 'Anything' by Tear Council, and the seconds fave of the week it Du Tonc's 'Every Song'. When I first heard 'Anything' I was getting some Client Liaison 'End of The Earth" vibes in the rhythm and instrumentation and something reminded me of Van She's jungle jam 'Jamaica' from 2012, and what did I find out with a little more research about 'Tear Council'?! ITS 2/4 OF VAN SHE (Matt Van Schie and Michael Di Francesco a.k.a Touch Sensitive)! So that explains why I was all about this new track and yes, this song is a fabulous discovery that I guarantee you will die for it.

Then, we have 'Every Song' by Du Tonc, who I randomly followed on Soundcloud about 12 months ago when I accidentally found their  cover of Bruce Springsteen's "On Fire". (Bruce Springsteen, if your reading this, I love you). I didn't really look into them any further after that so kind of forgot about them, I must have been feeling lazy that day. BUT THEN, they posted this song just over a week ago and I was obsessed. Usually I have to listen to a song a couple of times to really fall for it, but this got me good straight away, and then the bass line introduced itself in the bridge and I was all HOT DAMN, call the po-lice and the fireman the funk hit me, and it hit me hard. So basically I investigated Du Tonc's situation and you wouldn't friggen believe it, it's only Van She's, Matt Van Schie, involved in another dynamic duo with this chap Mighty Mouse. Moral of the story this week is Matt Van Schie pretty much has the midas touch and is doing great things at the minute.

In this playlist is 8 other great songs I also got down hard to this week to and I recommend these in your everyday life, not just the weekend. Best week ever wooooo can't wait to put my thang down flip it an reverse it all weekend long.

Love Kritty xx
