Let me be the first to say we wouldn’t blame you if you wondered what a Ziptape was. After all, last month was our first foray into this digital download sampler business. Ziptape is our answer for providing you with a cohesive burst of new music – some exclusive to Stereo Subversion, all of them free. Consider it a cooler jelly-of-the-month club without the dues and without the jelly.
Without any further ridiculousness, here’s our February Ziptape track listing (and download link below):
