As promised. . . A lot of Music
Well, a couple hours worth. . .
I've now got the harddrive and I can get back on track. Trying to make mixes with less than a gig just doesn't work, I found out. Even recording just wasn't going to work, but I got my little silver and black baby a couple days ago and I've been working all day.
First up, I recorded a few albums that I'll release over the next few weeks. The first is "Dock of the Bay" by Otis Redding. This album was released after he died in a plane crash only weeks after "Dock of the Bay" was recorded. It included music from through out his short career, none of it really filler. Aside from the title track, the duet with Carla Thomas, "Tramp" is my favourite.

Next are a pair of the recent mixes. Beats had been sitting on my computer for months, and I'd stare at it, play with it, and go work on something else. After a while, I just forgot about it until I decided to finally finish it. The release of the Cobra Starship album was the lynch pin for it, helping me finally get it right.
The second mix, From the Point (which is a silly name when I think about it) is more of a series of Prog rock mixes I've been playing with all year. This one includes a track from the Zabriskie's Point soundtrack by Pink Floyd and a few other few other slow tracks.
THe whole thing started as drug mix, that evolved into a druggy vibe mix, and finally turned into this. I intended it to sort of unfold as it moves along, and I think I nailed it this time.
