Jun 12, 2012 Badlands By Laura Studarus Photography by John Cowhie (artwork by)

We’re ardent fans Badlands. Purveyors of dreamy pop/ambient influenced soundscapes that seemingly draw from a million things at once, the Swedish duo were the perfect candidates for the next round in our ongoing mixtape project. Here’s what the former “Pleased to Meet You” band had to say about their entry:

“Here’s our schizo mixtape - like somebody having a fight over the music at a party, occasionally. But it does give insight in what we were listening to and what inspired us during the making of Battles Within.”

Check out the tape and tracklist below. For more Bandlands, you can also revisit a stream of their debut EP Battles Within here.
