Comment:

Phew, it's getting hot here . . . we've probably got another week or so when we can go to the beach at the weekends . . . and then it is hide indoors until the heat and the humidity calm down again in the autumn. Today it was 46 degrees and around 80 degrees humidity. Typical me being the laziest mixer in town, this was started last October when we were venturing back onto the beach after last summer. Just got around to finishing it last night and may even get to listen to it on the beach this weekend . . . . a collection of chilled, summer(ish) sounds to play while counting waves, making shell necklaces, eating ice-creams, drinking beer and hammock swinging.

Wonderful stuff, and certainly worth the wait. 7,11,14 & 19 in particular I'm loving.

Gorgeous, though personally, I'd bury Thom Yorke up to his neck in the sand & wait til' the tide came in. Love the closing trio.

Good stuff for the beach. And yeah, work at your own pace and don't let them rush you.
