This is usually about the time of year I post my favorite albums (coming soon!) and songs of the first six months. In the spirit of having more fun than usual, Peter of TwentyFourBit and I have teamed up for a 20-track mixtape of 2010's finest tracks thus far -- half are my picks, half are his. (Guess who picked Bon Iver.) All the glory in MP3 and streams (click through, RSSers) after the jump.
