January 2012 was weird. Newt Gingrich reinflated his balloon-man arms with super PAC cash, Beyonce and Jay-Z birthed the world's smallest overlord and Kim Dotcom became a Internet legend. With ever-growing evidence that the end of the world is nigh, we at Spinner have realized that life is too short to sweat the small stuff. So forget the daily hullabaloo and check out the past month's best sounds and singles in the first installment of our Monthly Mixtape: Each song featured on January's Mp3 of the Day is included in a fresh zipfile below. From Brooklyn darling Sharon Van Etten's rocking 'Serpents,' to the 'Know-It-All' attitude of Radical Dads, we've got you covered.

It does not download correctly. Instead of downloading as a compressed file, it downloads as an unknown file and I cannot open it.
