My wife and I made this mix a couple nights ago for our teacher Brenda Hillman. She says she likes to stay abreast of new music -- when her class ended, she gave each of us a blank cd and asked for mixes if we wished to send them. Naturally.

WOW, your teacher is fortunate to have a couple of keeners like you and the Mrs in her class. Highlights for me are :
Smog's "Dress Sexy At My Funeral" and
The Knife's
" Heartbeats "
( this song is a current obsession of mine).
Looks like Ms. Hillman got schooled !
