Muxtape, once the internet's bestest musical mixtapin' site, is back from the dead! Currently featuring bands including Francis and the Lights, Of Montreal, Girl Talk, Dan Deacon, Reggie Watts and more, Muxtape's new purpose is to be a place for “bands to promote their music and listeners to create mixes.” Welcome back, old friend.

A cut of a new Dr. Dre-produced track by Eminem has surfaced. While it's obviously not the final version, we're not quite feeling this one. Is Slim Shady's return to form doomed? (Who are we kidding? Dude could cover Crazytown and he'd go platinum.) ( Edit: This is actually from Dre's upcoming album Detox . Thanks, Trevor !)

TECH BUZZ: Because no one makes mix tapes anymore and giving someone a mix CD just doesn’t do the job, you might as well go all “2.0” with the USB stick that comes inside a cassette. If only Lloyd Dobler knew what iTunes was!

MUSIC BUZZ: Mixwit is a mixtape maker that doesn’t require you to waste time uploading songs. Unlike MuxTape , MixWit lets you drag songs from their MP3 archive into your playlist and create embeddable mixtapes. Plus, Mixwit offers a myriad of features to personalize the way your mixtape looks, making it even more of an extension of yourself. Bravo, Mixwit.

MUSIC BUZZ: Cassette From My Ex gathers stories behind those mix tapes that were given to you by old flames and lets you stream the tapes themselves. This reminds me of the time someone put “I Touch Myself” by the Divinyls on a mixtape for me. TOTAL DEALBREAKER.
