Catnip for Hipsters

Death of the Catnip

I thought I should at produce one last post before shutting down the doors of Catnip, at least in its current incarnation. As I posted a while ago, I have recently quit my job and started attending University again to obtain my Masters, which I knew would greatly reduce my ability to keep this blog up to the level that I would really like. However, things have changed yet again which will stop me from being able to post tracks on the blog at any sort of regularity.

I have recently been given a radio show on the local student radio station, the VBC. From 1-2pm on Friday afternoons (8-9pm Thursday night Eastern USA time) I will be hosting ‘Tracks from the Backpack’, a show devoted to hip-hop, which can be heard here. This means that all the time I previously spent digging out the best of the new tracks from across all genres will now be focused on putting together weekly playlists for my show.

It’s with great sadness that I am closing the doors to Catnip, as it has grown far bigger than I could have ever imagined in my wildest dreams. I hope you all stay subscribed to the blog though, as I will likely use this space to post podcast versions of my weekly radio show. However, I know that of my subscribers come here for the indie rock tracks, so I thought it was only fair to let people know that if that’s what you come here for, you will be out of luck for the foreseeable future.

Thanks again for supporting Catnip, it’s been a great ride.
