Choice Cuts: July, August, September, October Mixes

Thanks to the blog Seen Your Video, I've become obsessed with the music video to AlunaGeorge's "Your Drums, Your Love." Directed by Henry Scholfield, it's a beautifully choreographed piece. It's why "Your Drums, Your Love" also wound up on my October playlist. I've been slow to post this year's playlists; but here are the most recent, with links to some of the songs on Spotify. Be warned: At least 60% (or maybe 75%) of all my playlist tracks aren't available on Spotify.
