Labor Day Weekend Mix 2009

Labor Day!!!  The holiday where we celebrate our jobs (or just our labors in general for those currently job-seeking) by throwing one last hurrah for the summer whether it be downloading the new Fifa Soundtrack or just grilling some hot dogs.  Labor Day afterall is meant to recognize you, the hard-working taxpayers of our economy, so celebrate this weekend in your own unique or lazy way.

If you’re new to our mixes or our site in general, perhaps you might want to occasionally check back – not only have we buttered up our mix with a few groups you might know, but the talented groups we listed here are par for the course here at MUF.

The list below serves as a catching-up of sorts since we really don’t have the chance to recognize all of the groups that you must know and surely need to share with you all.  If you feel the urge, please support these bands by using the (buy) links next to each track which will take you to iTunes.  Without further ado, enjoy this weekend, Labor Day and our wonderful mix below.

    wow, I really loved the mix, especially owl city and carolina liar.
    I plan on buying an owl city record, if there are any through itunes or something.
    great post.

    owl city was almost too catchy for it’s own good. but i’ve always had a soft spot for pinback…i still can’t get ‘good to sea’ out of my head.

    great mix overall.- pinback, idiot pilot…
    but the track that sticks with me and has for months is that damned remix of Kings of Leon by RAC. damn, i’ve never even wanted to like KOLeon, but this remix has made me a fan, even if only of this song. so thanks.

    I just listened to every song and fell in love with each one! You have great great music, love it!

  • Owl City Fireflies is probably my favorite song on this list. I liked it so much that I arranged it for orchestra. Some of the others are pretty good too – like Youth Group!
