Six months ago, I started an Indieball tradition of gathering some favorite tracks in one place and calling it Best Of*. The asterisk requires explanation: this is only my list, not the staff’s, and it’s an imprecise science at best. If you like the collection and want more, you can see tracks that almost made the cut, or go back to my Best Of* 2010.
As always, right-click the song title and “save as” to download any file, or you can download all the tracks in a zip file with the link at the bottom of the post. You’ll also find a stream of all the tracks together there. Please let us know in the comments if you liked/loved/hated the selection and tell us what we missed from the first half of the year. Oh and if you really love a track, check out its original post and whoever recommended it. There’s always more!
