| Introduction | The blog's name is from the lyric "Blowtorch baby, snuff that flame" in the song "Chinese Burn" by A.C. Temple. (You can hear it at the March 2, 2011 post.) I will only offer up mp3s that were released on independent record labels, or that were self-released without a label, or that were recorded live, and will gladly take down any song if the label or band asks me to. The point is to get people into one great song, and maybe the person will then go buy the album or single or whatever to check the rest of it out. I won't ever post a whole album or EP, so don't ask. I make no financial gain from this site, and in fact I will at some point have to pay an annual fee to keep it going, once it surpasses its free bandwidth limit. So I make zero $ now, and will lose $ in the future. To download an mp3, just press the "share" button on the player, and if you like a song, please share it with someone. Leave a comment if you want me to remove a song for any reason. I'm probably going to start a blog called Awful Landscaping or Dubious Landscaping soon.
