Comment:

I have done many ambient, post-rock, and depression, mixes. I Wanted to try something a littlebit new, or less unheard by me. I guess it worked well, although this is a bit calm & moody...But that's my thing. I hope you all get something new and different, and not only the same, as mostly my mixes afford. By myself I have enjoyed this well, couple of days now. And where that tittle comes from? Dunno, It just sounds good, so I taked it from Paul Simon. ENJOY!

Great title! Besides that, great picks here, my favorite would be 2-3, but I also love the R.E.M., Bruce, Cohen, pretty much all of it.

I really enjoyed this mix. Track 4 is one of my favorite songs at the moment and there's a great deal of other great selections on here. R.E.M., Neil Young, Animal Collective, Lily Allen...great mix.

Saw Yes on here and thought it was a Darth Pazuzu mix. Love the Nico/Walker pairing, one who can sing and one who can't, both great songs though.

Entrancingly eclectic. Who else would've thought of Nancy & Lee after Genesis? Or Aine Minogue followed by The Doors?
