Comment:

This is the second part, representing the slower, darker, dreamier, cocooned-at-night-in-a-cosy-haze-of-warmth side of things.It's quite the hodge podge hotpot, but then my mixes usually are - after a lot of road testing and whatnnot, I think this sequence hangs together well and is perfect for lonesome, late night listening.

Hope you give it a go! Thanks to everyone who commented on the last mix.

I'm likin' this, James. Gave it a "quick" preview in WinZip (but I'll definitely burn it, later this evening)
...the sequencing works for me!

...finally! Have just started listening to this for the 2nd time - you have me, I think I got in that space. This is a scorcher. Thank you!

played this one at work today, very nice. loved the Feist to UNPOC run especially ("Diamond Heart" is real pretty), along with Bongwater, LCD Soundsystem and Liars picks. according to my i-tunes, that Betty Harris song is called "Cry to Me," by the way. ;) Great cover art too.

Nice mix, been awhile since I heard that Clinic song. New album looks promising.

One request could you please namedrop who's responsible for the cover artwork for this mix and the previous one? They're amazing photographs, are this yours?
