Comment:

The title of this mix comes from the song "Rudderless" by The Lemonheads.

This is a mix that I made for a friend with whom I decided to swap mixes. This mix has been made/deleted/re-made at least three times - this is the final edit. The song "Llorando" by Rebekah Del Rio is an acapello cover of the song "Crying" by Roy Orbison, and it is extremely haunting. I decided to make it first as a sort of punch in the face, and it turns out that it works very well with the orchestral arrangement of "The Universal" by Blur.

The Grizzly Bear song was a re-add after having been cut. It most recently replaced the song "Drink TO Me Babe, Then" by A.C. Newman which I forgot that I have already used on another mix. While the two songs are drastically different, both fit in very well between the Wilco and Smiths songs.

As a happy accident on revamp #2, I discovered that "Such A Lovely Thing" by DeVotchKa and "Mr. Clarinet" by The Birthday Party segue into each other perfectly. I couldn't have planned that better if I tried.

I also broke one of my cardinal mixtape rules by repeating artists (The Lemonheads), however I felt it was necessary for tying the two halves together. Also, "Bit Part" is only 1:51, and is the cutest song I have ever heard.

The only reason this particular mix is on cd is that I do not currently have cassette making capabilities. There is currently no cover art for this mix, as I have not yet drawn it. But, I think that it will have something to do with a ship (or a little tugboat). Here is the MS Paint version of my cover art (I was not paying attention and managed to jack up my own title, oops).
