December 2008 Playlist

This month's playlist is a mixed bag; some tracks are brand new (Friendly Fires' cover of Lykke Li, and Cut Copy), some are a bit Christmassy (Frightened Rabbit, The Brad Pitt Light Orchestra and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah) and others are from artists and albums that we have loved over the year (TV on the Radio, Santogold, Metronomy). We hope you enjoy all of 'em.
