Comment:

I'm finding myself being pretty damn proud of this particular mix. I happen to love quirky pop music, and this will do the trick for me when I'm in that mood. I started out thinking that all I was going to put on it was British artists (they're so good at that quirky thing), but going through my music collection flushed out some surprises and some obvious (Wilco - how could I not put in at least one track?). Hope it does the trick for you, too.

Novel idea, and well done. Worth as much pleasure as any mix of conventional pop music, if not more because it's so loopy (although I don't see the quirk in a few tracks, namely 8, 11, and 14). I like seeing New Pornos, Sparks, and Guided by Voices together for some reason :)

Noticed this last week but was in a hurry to write a cmt. Looks, well upbeat and quirky; a fitting title, at least based on the few tracks that I recgnize. Great idea. If innarested in a trade pls drop me a line.
