Here’s the second annual “Splendid Moments” mix from our good buddy Panda Jones. Here’s what he had to say about it:

I thoroughly enjoyed the first Splendid Moments mix and it went wood on the internet to boot, so I made another: another year in California, another farm in the mountains, another hazy, gazy, lazy mix of sensitive whiteboy daydream music. This year I was even less focused on current releases as a result of an increasingly hippie lifestyle and my reliance on Pitchfork’s Best New Music picks is embarassingly evident but I’m happy to report that the ends in this case justify the means. There really are some splendid moments, in the songs themselves which I obviously can’t claim credit for, and also in the transitions. It flows, baby. There’s also a misstep or two, but 2009 was a wabi sabi sort of year so roll with it.

Like SM2008, the mix skews toward the easy listening end of the spectrum. There’s nary a club banger in sight, probably owing to the fact that I didn’t set foot in a club all year. I did, however, play a party in the barn depicted on the “cover.”
