Comment:
Someone at work asked me to make a mix with the theme 'Isolation'. Whilst wanting to avoid the invetable slew of predictable break-up songs which go hand in hand with the theme, I tried to go for a mix of songs that sound 'Isolated' (Destroyer, This Mortal Coil), songs about feeling isolated ('Being in Love' in particular) and other songs that generally give you a feeling of isolation when I listen to them. None of which is exactly 'fun' so I threw in a weird Wedding Present cover which renders Julee Cruise's already eerie original into six minutes of feedback-wrecked misery. I think I met the criteria well.Feedback:
Always nice to see Whiskeytown, you have some nice gems here.
P.S. Lennon's "Isolation" off Plastic Ono Band could have been a nice closer.
wow! can i just say i love this...?!!! it looks great! so many of my favorites, but stand outs are def: red house painters, the decemberists, billy bragg, belle & sebastian, whiskeytown, jens, songs:ohia & iron and wine. very well done! :]
