Ok folks here’s the first official Art of the Mixtape(Song) ever!  

This time up its a song called From Spring Til by a little known Colorado artist Nathaniel Rateliff.  It starts off nice and slow with a beautiful acoustic part before a beautiful harmonious glorious chorus.  Think Bon Iver with a lower pitch, or a more laid back Fleet Foxes arrangement with a single vocalist.  Rateliff is blessed with a voice that immediately draws attention, but boy that harmony and building arrangement sure sweetens the deal.  Like the song?  Then head over to Art of the Mixtape and download it
