    Yes, this is a mixtape of other people's tunes, like you've made in your bedroom dozens of times before. But it isn't nostalgia, it's very 2012.

    K7 is doing its best to keep the tradition alive, and Foals' contribution is a curatorial coupe des grace.

    It all adds up to an exhilarating and at times revelatory mash-up of wildly varied flavors, like a really excellent fruit salad.

    Is it a fun, well-selected mix to throw on at a party and dance to? Yes. And, sometimes, that's enough.
