Comment:

I don't know what happened to the description for this disc, the server appears to have eaten it sometime in the few years since it earned a MOTW honour.

It's a pity, since the explanation was fairly lengthy. Basically nearly every song was the entrance music for a wrestler, an absurdist collection of historical/pop figures and fictional characters. Myself and the two friends this mix was given to also made appearances.

Oh My God! (In a Joey Styles voice). This site now needs a catagory beyond "Mix o' the Week" just to accomodate this! An incredible crafting of music/samples and images...light years beyond anything I've done, but that won't stop me from getting in line to request a trade. Or, to borrow from Steinmetz, "buy, trade, whatever..."
