So it would appear that Muxtape is set to make a badass comeback in the not too distant future (can i get a WOOP?). It now The site now displays a lengthy explanation as to the reasons why it was closed down in the first place along with an interesting history of the whole idea, headed prophetically with the line, "relaunching soon, in the service of bands".
Basically, the goal of Muxtape is to "challenge the way we experience music online", suggests its creator Justin Ouelette. He goes on to assert that "I still want to work to enable what I think is the most interesting aspect of interconnected music: discovering new stuff." something which I'm inclined to agree with so much that I'm nodding my head and holding up two thumbs with an inane grin on my face (wearing just a towel). Either way, it'll be good to have this back as its a gem amongst online music sites, and if nothing changes it'll still be the best way to stumble across bands that would otherwise forever lurk in the darkest recesses of the ether.
