Comment:

So I asked a bunch o' you guys out there to send me the best tune your ears had heard over the past week and this is the result. Flows quite well all things considered, apologies to Jake cos I couldn't locate Rachel Sweets' - 'Just My style.' I enjoyed the exercise and reckon it's one well worth repeating what say you? Merci beaucoup toute le monde.

Would you believe it, seconds after I posted this mix, Barry came up trumps with the Rachel Sweet track, so it's back to the drawing board pour moi!

Cliff, this looks really great. Props for making it happen ( albeit without my help ). Promise to be part of round 2 tho. Next time we trade I'd love a copy of this. Love the Windmill, Postmarks & Hawley choices in particular. And I reckon I need a bit mor Charlotte Dada in my life...

Strange, when I tried to submit the cover art with text nothing happened but I had no problem when trying without text? Same thing happened with my previous mix, anyone got any suggestions as to how I can correct this?

Cliff, it depends how long the title of your cover art is. AotM will accept a pic with a shortish title, nothing too long. Also commas may be a problem? I had difficulties myself with those in the past....

This mix demonstrates the fine and eclectic taste of the AOTM community. My submission would have been Elton John's "I'm Still Standing" -- so perhaps it's good that I didn't contribute.

It's like the mixtape representation, of what Art of the Mix is really. Definatly intrested in being involved with future volumes. Also like to see picks from Liquidmoon1, Swankexpress and whitevinyl57 also do picks, as big fans of thier mixes. Top Mix though it has to be said......any chance of a copy??

Great idea. I second Moe, though I can't say I was rockin' that Elton John tune this past week.

I'll admit I was skeptical at first, but this turned out really, really well. I especially like DJ Karen's pick. Bon travail, tout le monde.
