solipsistic NATION No. 274: Magicore Voltron Mega Mix
On today’s show we’re going to experience the Voltron Mega Mix lovingly put together by [tlr], tooth_eye, A Beautiful Lotus, Johan Ess and Joshua Decker to celebrate Magicore‘s two year anniversary. You remember Magicore, don’t you? They only put together one of my favorite editions of solipsistic NATION evah! Only this time they’re mix is darker, sinister, heavier and far more dangerous. But don’t worry, it’s still just as fun!
“And just what is Magicore?” I hear some of you asking yourselves. It’s basically a newly minted genre and blog coined by [tlr] a few years back that combined everything from J-Pop to chiptunes to anime to metal and more. It’s since grown and mutated since it was first incepted. [tlr] can explain it better than I can… and he will, along with the rest of team Magicore.
On today’s show we’ll hear music that represents months, if not years, of hard work. And they’re giving it away absolutely for free. If you like anything you heard on today’s show, nearly all the tracks are available as free MP3 downloads, check the playlist below. But if you have an extra buck or two, why not show your support by buying one or two of their tracks or albums or other merch from the artists featured on today’s show if they’re selling them. As long as you’re here, why not show you support for solipsistic NATION by clicking the link to our iTunes page leave a quick rating or review. Spread the word!
To celebrate Magicore’s two year anniversary we’re going to give away some Magicore stickers. Maybe even a bandana or two. Tweet me with #magicorecontest for your chance to win. Maybe even a bandanna. You never know.
Join us again next week for a very special live set from the Stereo MCs. I’m so excited!
See you then!
