Comment:

It's sayonara to opiates, designer jeans, butterscotch candy...and a few other things. Starting January 1st*. Till then I'm rockin' my sass & bides here in the Miami airport waiting for a TACA flight to San Salvador with nothing for kicks but Lawrence's Rainbow, assorted dum-dums and wireless internet. So I thought I'd post this mix of recent favorites. Enjoy & happy new year to everyone, especially tornadoZ.*2011

Jesus, this is good. I have no idea what to make of your commentary, but I'm enjoying the music...

glad to see Kit Kats didn't make it on your sayonara list. Orchid, these mixes of yours have brought nothing butt whole pleasures into my life throughout this past year. favorites on this one include Pure Essence, American Spring, Eileen Romey, Flairs, your fishnets, Neserin Sipahi, Vainica Doble - and especially that crazy/beautiful Asa Chang & Junray song. all the best to you in 2007, my dear - or in 2011, whichever happens first.

Impressive and eclectic as always; I particularly enjoyed the Asa Chang & Junray, the Joubert Singers (praise be!) and the 'Yelp, Bellow' which is wonderfully weird. The Flairs track is also excellent - and this comes from dreary, suburban Staines? Really?Happy new year and keep up the not giving up not giving up... your list of resolutions beats all that yawnsome 'fitter, happier, more productive' stuff anyway.

Marvellous especially 21 and the notes, even though, like Mr C, I actually have no idea what you're talking about.

It's important to ease into life-altering behavioral modifications, in the mean-time, brilliant stuff here (as we hace come to expect and enjoy.)

Just got my computer back, so I haven't had a chance to do the DL thing, but this looks like another fabulous award-winning Orchid mix. Special recognition for the American Spring, Vainica Doble and the Daughter of Albion. Hope you have a happy new year!

Thankyou for so many musical delights dicovered through your mixes in '06 Lucie. I imagine this contains just as much wonder. Have a great new year :)

I don't like to shoot off comments about music I don't know, but thanks to your generous download-linking I now DO know that this one gives me a buzz - the whole thing really from odd Fowley to fine Romey, including the odd yelp, bellow, rasp, etc., but my PEAK experience in this set is probably the stretch from Vainica through Mose, right there in the middle.

I also got a big kick out of "What's a Girl to Do?" -- (a question I'd say you've pretty well answered with this mix). Very very enjoyable - thanks!

You get sexier by the minute and I for one am glad you are jetting off into the blue yonder because each time i see your name I feel ready to implode. Let those foreign chaps suffer for a while. Happy New Year!
