Duuudes... this took forevs. Sorry. Hope you like it. The m3u file in the zip folder is supposed to play all the songs one after the other and in the right order. Let me know if anyone encounters technical difficulties. Liner notes and "outtakes" to follow... perhaps.

Yeahhhhh!!! Worth the wait.

The last megamix got burned to CD and is a favourite at work.

Been following ArtDecade for a few years now. Keep it up.
Also: you've been blogrolled:

Man, I've been looking for "Hilly Fields" FOREVER...or at least since my friend and I ordered two copies of the single from Music Machine, but they only had one and I let her take it. (Chivalry and all that.) I mean, she made me a tape of it, which I may even still have somewhere, but I don't listen to cassettes too often. So much much thanks.

Definitely investigating some of the other stuff here...and I already know and love "The Mess" and have it, but I'll highly recommend it to others....

Solarflares: thanks very much for the comment and the blogroll. Your site looks cool, I'm excited to check it out!

Brett: Glad to help you finally get your Hilly on. "Racing To The Fields..." Such a trip!

Congratulations on your son and good pick with 'Doot Doot' by Freur (who became dance act Underworld).

ib said...

Hey! Congratulations, Emmett!

Apologies, for coming to this so late. Nice inaugaral mix, too...

Here's to Noah!

Tim said...

Conratulations, Emmett, on the birth of your son, and thanks for another great mix. Noah will have pretty great musical tastes for sure!
