I have more than 1 reason to be thankful for these guys right now. Pizza, double cheeseburgers, spaghetti, delicious… all you can eat in Buffet Libre.
1.
For the past year or so, these guys from Spain have been putting out some of the most tasteful mixtapes I’ve laid ears on (aka the Verbena series). It’s less of the ‘computer mixing trickery’ and more of just straight pure awesome track selection. The mixing is smooth, to the point, and seamless. No tacky trickery here to make up for the mindless process of building your tracklist around what ‘the blogs you follow on hypem‘ post weekly.
2.
Today after my hellish first block of finals, I was looking for some relief and Marc from Buffet Libre was chillin in my mailbox to the rescue. I may not have ever mentioned here, but for the past months, a song has been haunting my memory. Ever since the day I tried to remember the title of it to play at a party. It would NOT come to me. From then on, a day hasn’t passed without me hearing the intro/vocals/rhythm of that mystery song.
That went on for about 3 months………and finally ended today. All thanks to…
Verbena Selected vol. 4. (right click, save as). Tracklist is after the break.

I hear you get memory loss from memorizing so much science information.
while my programming is far inferior, i was planning on using about 75% of these tracks/artists on a DJ demo mix within the next week. and now i’ll just look like a douche.
I know that sink.
Have you heard the 80kidz remix of “Knock Out”? Its pretty killer as well.
And the Buffet Libre mix owns –love what they’re doing right now.

I’m sure they’ll hit you up, but you’ll see it here as well for sure.
[...] big ups to Hacks from Resonator Mag for reminding me about the 80kidz remix of “Knock [...]
I’ve got some of the stuff they’ve been mailing around for “REWIND” and it sounds hot so far.. I’m totally keeping my ear out more of it.
