Download a ton of NME mixtapes from the 80’s

We’ve hit the jackpot, guys. Yes, there was a time when the internet didn’t exist and people actually read music rags that came with mixtapes. Paste use to come with cd’s and NME had mixtapes when cassettes ruled the earth. We thank the powers that be that a slew of mixtapes have been made available for download with their accompanying art. There’s some true gems to be had and a monumental time suck (in a good way). Please proceed with caution because you won’t be able to peruse for only a couple of minutes. Head over here to PRESS PLAY AND RECORD to cop some mixes. Look below for a sample of what’s in store for the rest of your day.
