Comment:

Another installment in a bi-annual mix trade at this message board I frequent. I had a good month and a half to make this mix, which wasn't exactly a good thing. Other than the first three tracks, which sounded great to me, tracks were shifted, replaced, discarded, and sometimes brought back at will. I became to indecisive and just started to not 'feel' certain songs because I started to overplay them. I became content with this a day before I sent them out. Thanks to McDonald12 for the closing track - what a lost psych gem that is.
Enjoy!

Wow Salman, what's not to like here? Over the duration of 6 weeks it's easy to 'turn yourself inside out' as it were with a mix but to these ears this is blindingly good & as for the last track, such a good song is fine in any of it's multiple covers!

This looks pretty tremendous, Salman. You haven't posted a whole lot recently, but when you do so, it's almost invariably been of an even higher quality than your past efforts. This is no exception.

Finally got onto the site to put some comments down on this baby! Looks absolutely amazing and really does seem like a lot of work into it - and I liked reading about the "mixing process" too. Excellent to see Comets on Fire there.

Damn I appear to have missed this as well. Anything with A Hawk... Fugazi, and Destroyer gets my vote.

Wow! Your description of the "process" is right on the mark. Good to know it's not just me. There are quite a few unknowns for me on this mix. Nonetheless, your notes have reassured me. I suspect it's rather good. Unforunately, I've left it a bit late for the download. Shame on me.
