mix cd's

Late at night two nights ago, I was deep in the basement studios at STEIM, surrounded by high-tech production equipment. And I was working and working, not on making a clean recording or my new CD, but instead on a mix CD for my friend Bart who's leaving for the countryside of France in a few days, and needs something to listen while working on his thesis, looking out at the wine fields. (tough life...).

Mix tapes and CD's have been a part of my life for many years, but for some reason, I haven't made them at all recently. But I was inspired down in the studio, making not just one mix CD but 3, full of changes between Tuxedomoon to the Homosexuals going into a great track by dDamage, and so on.. Too fun!

The ultimate Mix CD is this one from Digiki called You Should Play This, with art by Florence Manlik.

ok, i'll have to do that...
you know, the cool thing about "You Should Play This" is the whole no-name-dropping thing... when listening to it, it's really startling and very progressive to not know who i should identify the sounds with. is a different way of listening.
