Mixtape #7: “Let’s Make This Perfectly Clear, There’s No Secrets This Year” (Best Music of 2009 Mix, Part 2)

Every Wednesday, Web in Front will be offering up a digital mixtape, comprised of whatever happens to be floating through my head and ears at the time–great local music (including exclusive unreleased tracks from our Featured Artist Interviews), old favorites and oddball obscurities; also featured will be mixes made by some of our favorite Los Angeles musicians, along with the stories and explanations behind their picks.

Today’s mixtape is the second of two mixes (the first is here) dedicated to my favorite songs and albums of 2009’s first half, with Part 2 being the more eclectic and sprawling of the two, featuring artists as disparate as Jarvis Cocker, Castledoor, Dinosaur Jr., Avi Buffalo, Phosphorescent and Frankel, among others.  Both mixes are meant to be companion pieces to our Best Music of 2009 lists, Parts 1 and 2.  Use the songs as a guide to your 2009 record shopping, or to kill 90 minutes of your day, or to inspire comments wall flaming.  Enjoy.  Track listing and information after the jump.
