I told myself I wasn’t going to get behind this month… September is officially over and last night I went through all of the “leaks” that we posted on the site throughout the course of the month. I didn’t think there would be too many since we dedicated the first 11 days of the month to Jay-Z (no Jay tracks on this tape, btw). But man, we had over 7 pages of individual tracks that we posted in September!
I could have easily made this a two disc mixtape, but I really wanted to get the best of the best. So I knocked it down to 22 tracks (about half of September’s leaks), leveled out the volume, and got rid of the unnecessary air. This mixtape kicks ass!

July brought us a bunch of great music. Seems that we’ve been posting more leaks than ever lately… and they’re all great. What started out as a monthly mixtape of my favorite tracks from the month, has turned into more or less a monthly wrap up of the best of what we posted throughout the month.
This month, I couldn’t narrow it down any lower than 40 of the best tracks that we featured on the site in July. Hit the jump to grab em all.

Better late than never, huh? Things have been really hectic around here so my month-end compilation for June got pushed off to the side. I had every intention on putting it out, cuz we posted some real gems last month. Seems that we’ve been posting more and more everyday and there were too many great songs to make this compilation fit on a CD. So, I went all out and made this mixtape 35 tracks deep. If you must burn it to a CD, it’ll fit across two.
So check it after the cut. This is the shit that I personally bump. So if anyone wonders what Kevin Nottingham recommends… this is it! July’s mixtape coming soon…

May was a great month for music and this month’s KevinNottingham.com mixtape proves it. If you’re not familiar with our end of the month mixtape series, basically what I do is compile the best of the leaks that I’ve posted on the site throughout the whole month. We’ve been doing this since the top of the year and I like it cuz it gives me a chance to organize all those loose tracks I have sitting on my hard drive and upload em to my ipod in some orderly fashion.
As I was saying, this month had an extreme abundance of great music. Because of that, May’s mixtape turned into 2 full discs! So if you missed anything that we posted this month or just want a great mix of songs to listen to, hit the jump!

It’s the end of the month again, and time to round up the best of the leaks that we put out over the month of April. Each month I feel these mixes keep getting better and better and this month is no exception. Tracklist and link after the cut…

Here we are at the last weekend of the month. As promised, I’ve compiled a mixtape of the hottest songs we’ve featured on the site during the month of March. The number of tracks we featured this month was actually a lot more than this, but in order to keep a consistent mix, I picked the tracks I was personally feeling the most and I narrowed it down so it would fit on a CD. Enjoy!

I’m pretty much diggin’ this new end of month mixtape series. It takes me a little time to put em together, but the end result is something that I’m pretty proud of. In case you missed it, this new series is basically a monthly wrap up of all the leaks we’ve posted for the month. You can be sure that when you play this tape, it is Kevin Nottingham approved! This series is also good for those of you that missed some of the tracks we’ve posted over the month. Don’t get this series confused with our weekly inbox series though… totally different. Although I have included a few tracks that were put up in the inbox that were recommended by you all… the readers.
Anyway, enough talk; let’s get to the music. February had a few Valentine’s Day inspired tracks and a few Dilla tribute tracks along with the rest of the pack. I must say that I really like this month’s mix. Tracklist and link after the cut…

We post a lot of loose tracks here on the site, otherwise known as “leaks”. If you’re anything like me, you download single tracks and they get lost on your hardrive somewhere. Either that or you have a hard time keeping up with all the loose tracks that are posted. Starting this month, I’ve decided to go ahead and compile all those loose tracks into one full download. I went back through all of our January posts and compiled the best of the loose tracks that we’ve featured. Enjoy!

It’s been a little while since I’ve shared my iPod playlist with you all. We weren’t gonna do it again, since the response wasn’t that big. But a few people have inquired, so I put another one together. This one got a little out of control, as I incuded 21 tracks. No real criteria as to how tracks made the list… they were just songs that I’m feeling right now. The order of the tracks is based on best sounding order. Continue on for the full tracklist and download link…
