Tracklisting I



06-10-2004

i like mixes. tapes were my medium for years.
since iTunes, i've created hundred or so mixes, but rarely do i follow through with the packaging as i did with 90min Maxcells.

Tracklisting for the mix i made awhile back.
the cover is located at: http://www.spymac.com/gallery/show_photo.php?picid=51992

A small taste of what i listen too.
"for the head" features two mini-mixes: my tribute to rupert hine, who unbeknownst to me for a long time, produced many of the artists i listen too. here's a sampling of his work in the two thru five tracks. also my "food" mix. Beef Jerky, French Fries With Pepper, Cigarettes And Chocolate Milk.
"for the feet" features early attempts at mixing a-sides: Poe To DM Via Z from Mark Danielewski, his sister Poe(of 'angry johnny' fame in the mid 90s) and Depeche Mode. the other is Your Retro Career Melted (Zombified Mix) by The Faint which features an intro from rob zombie's first solo effort. i'm proud of that one...

FYI: i now have two cats. brothers to their spirit sister.
