10 Great, Unexpected Mixtapes by Musicians Who Aren’t DJs

Jens Lekman

Lekman’s summer mixes were something of a tradition for a few years in the late ’00s — he’s not made one for a while now, but still, they’re all good and worth listening to. Our favorite is the 2010 version, which is entirely in 3/4 and features everything from African pop to suitably bittersweet indie tunes. There’s a short commentary on it at Lekman’s 2010 smalltalk page (about three quarters of the way down) and a direct download link here.
