Our good ol' friend Justin Ouellette (watch him in action on our Indie Music Panels) is back in business.

(left: Muxtape will never die!)

The on-again/off-again venture known as Muxtape has returned. His third-party music sharing site that digitally mimicked the joy of friends sharing mixtapes was shut down last year after a problem with the RIAA.

After his run in with "the man," Ouellette decided to use his Muxtape platform to promote bands. The latest incarnation of the site is up and running now, with 12 of Ouellette's "favorites" being the first official test subjects: Of Montreal, Cexman, Adron, Girl Talk, Dan Deacon, Apes & Androids, Old Gold, Reggie Watts, Amanda Palmer, Tony Bambino, Vulture Realty.
