i have prevailed in their weekly "album cover smackdown" competition. (i credit my expertise in obscure ben folds side projects.)
whom should i choose? genre isn't a huge concern to me -- i merely desire the most fluid, cohesive, surprising, and thematically satisfying experience i can get. any suggestions?
stylus staffers who post here can feel free to compete for my affections.

climactically, the entire second half/side should consist of uncomfortable, derisive silence.

To "win" a Stylus Mixtape is like to "win" a cancerous tumor.
But if you're smart enough to choose Dommy P, you might be lucky enough to get a mixtape full of wrestling entrance themes.

a young lady once made me a tape with "cross bones style" on it, accompanied by sleater-kinney and several jesus christ superstar selections. didn't end well. miccio has been eliminated.
thanks for the offer, though.

i won the album art challenge back in march. still waiting for my prize to arrive in the mail. i expect to get it on the 12th of never, at this point. i wish the contributor i chose would've just straight up told me that he was never gonna make the mix and to pick someone else.
