Comment:
This mix I made for myself, for solitary car drives.All of these songs take me to a different place. Some because they are just so strange (Imagine Winooski, These Burgers), some because they set a mood, and the music is so incredible it just moves you(to bring you my love, fog).
Regarding the last song...the first part of it is the chorus of Life in a Glasshouse, played backwards. I made it so the sound gets louder and louder as the sound washes over you, panned right to left. Then, as it fades to the left, an excerpt of Pharoah's Dance, looped, and heavily echoed, fades in, panned right, than to the left. As the sound of Pharoah's Dance is fading away to the left,
Life in a Glasshouse fades back in from the right, and whole process repeats, over and over, for about
15 minutes. I guess this is kind of strange, but it sort of hypnotizes me, in fact, I've almost wrecked my car several times listening to it.

Feedback:
Nice cover art!
Nice mix.
this sounds really, really cool.
I'd almost wreck my car, too. Great mix.
brilliant mix. if i drove, i'd want this in the car. might try the Miles / Radiohead idea myself.
