Monthly Mix: The Playlist, March 2012

     In like a lion, out like a lamb. The month of March treated us to a pot of gold filled with quality music spanning from rock to hip-hop, and much more. Sliding down the rainbow first were the Arctic Monkeys who debuted their new video for "R U Mine?", a gritty-guitar cut off their 2011 release Suck It And See. Following suit in releasing new videos, Wisconsin indie-folkers Bon Iver unveiled their video for "Towers", successfully blending blissful sound with sight. 
     The leprechauns handed out one more gem before the month closed the door. Musical/Visual project Gorillaz delivered their new dance-infused single "Do Ya Thing" which features the likes of James Murphy and Andre 3000. This track will sure to have you bobbing your head, spin after spin.
     We were pleased with all the tunes that came in this month which made for great listening. This is our deepest list yet, and we will enjoy them one more time as our whiskey glasses give one last clank.
