Shoeboxes

The good people at the South By Southwest festival in Austin provide a ton of free music for downloading, from which I've compiled this soft playlist.

Ten years down the road I’ll be cleanin’ out my closet, getting rid of old clothes I reach behind my winter coat And I stumble upon shoeboxes filled with old ghosts
Why did I hang onto your pictures?
Why did I hang onto that dress?
Cuz it kills me to see you, but it kills me not to
It kills me to remember and it kills me to forget

- from 'Shoeboxes' by David Ramirez

The entire batch from the free (and legal!) torrents from SXSW 2012 are available for download here, hosted by google. It's a ton of music. Well over a thousand songs. Most are garbage... but when they're good, they're really good.
