Comment:
For my first alt-DJ venture in four and a half years (I've got at least two more in the works), I teamed up with the estimable sammyg123, a recent veteran of several alt-DJ mixes who happens to be pretty well-aligned with me musically. Sam sent me his picks (he's odds, I'm evens) and I set to work. Unfortunately, due to my inability to upload songs into shared files, he has yet to hear it... At any rate, it was a ton of fun and I think the mix worked out pretty well. Based upon his reaction to the track list, I think it's fair to say we're both pretty proud of this one. Dedicated to the great Arthur Lee, who passed away late last week; I chose the Love song on this mix not just because I worship the band (and because the song fit well with the flow of the mix), but because its title euphemistically describes how I feel abuot his death. Title by Jeff Beck's old band. P.S. Thanks to lo-fi for hipping me to tracks 4 and 12.Feedback:
Great opener! Also love 3, 13, 21 & 23.
Got some great picks here - fantastic opening; always a sucker for Billy and Wilco and Perry sounds like a laugh. Seems like alt DJ suits you sir!
Nice work guys, love the 5-8 section especially.
Killer stuff. Lots of variety represented here, as both of you do so well. And once he hears it, I am sure sammyg123 will love it too!
This looks really, really great, guys. Agreed with NoV on the opening track, as it just came up on the iPod this morning while I was out and about. The stretch from 8->20 looks like some pretty solid stuff, as well.
Very nice! Tracks 2 and 11 make me happy, and that 14-17 stretch looks great.
Amazing, as per usual.
Very nice indeed. I love the opening through 7 especially. And I would adore to here Kingley's take on both ONS & Spanish Flea.
what a great way to put together an alt DJ mix! good work, guys.
good ride
Holy shit! Somebody please upload this sucker! Absolute faves from Swell Maps, Yardbirds & Alice (I love the intro to that tune so much I have to stop myself from using it on every mix).
You guys sure know what your doing! Love the closer.
Yeah, this certainly turned out great Rob. great picks from yourself. I had the pleasure of seeing Arthur Lee 3 0r 4 years back when he came to M/C, and that particular track was a highlight of his fantastic set. Look forward to receiving this my friend..
Love the opener, 13 and the 20-24 run is killer. Nice work, boys.
Wow - PLEASE upload this one!! Looks great.
I've been posted missing for a while. Nothing's changed. Another cracker Rob.
Loads I'm liking here. Digging 2, 7 and 8 especially.
Tres fantastique!
Nice work Sammy and Robby ) sounds like you should be part of the Vegas rat pack team). Great selection from both yous guys. Dos fantastica!
the things i know are swell. the things i don't know are most likely cool as well. but more importantly, fuck joe lieberman.
This is a really great collaboration and, like you said, it definitely looks like your music tastes mesh well. I really like the Thermals -> Pale Fountains section, and the Bragg/Wilco and Dusty Springfield. Nice dedication too!
Sure is lots to like on this one.
Love the vibe of tracks 1-13, the Dizzee Rascal track is fantastic and transitions perfectly to Me One, and the rest is pretty cool, too.
