Woah! A few weeks back we posted about one of our partners Wee Birdy (you’ll find her blog here), who’d created a London mixtape using Mixwit. I’ve been dying to do one for New York ever since, and I think we might make this a regular thing – at least for a few weeks.

Please send in your suggestions for a twinned mixtape, with which we’ll brighten your next Tuesday morning. If you can find songs that reference places we’ve already covered on the site that would be even better!

Here’s the playlist for the first Metrotwin mixtape.
