The twenty albums included in our Best Albums of 2009 list can only cover so much of the music we’ve enjoyed, so to share some more of our favourites from the past year, we present the Ca Va Cool Mixtape for 2009, just in time to close off the year. As always, we thank you for reading and hope you stick around in the new decade. Happy new year.

Packaging is cool, vinyl is warm, and stationary head bobbing is a way of life. If we've spotlighted one of your songs and the internet has got you down, contact us and we'll remove it right away.
