52 Tapes


Hi there, my name is Jim. In 2010 I decided to make one mix a week for the next year and post them here. It turns out once I got to 2011, I wasn't ready to stop. Since no one was really stopping me (except my poor URL choice), I kept on going for another year. I'm done now, though. Probably. If you'd like to get in touch with me, send me an email at jim@52tapes.com. Mouse over the the * icon for more information on a mix. I hope you enjoy them!
