Comment:
I was trying to do something murkier and more free-form than usual, although this mix ended up being poppier than I had intended. The title is from the liner notes to the Donovan album. SpaceSounds is an old, scratchy flexidisc that National Geographic put out in 1980 which belongs to e-lo, and which I have mined for samples. That Palace song slays me.Feedback:
This is pretty great, Ben. I like your mixes a lot.
Yep, I'm with Rob. This (and your others) are really good work.Let me know if you fancy a trade...:~)
Very cool mix, Ben. What Rob and Muzag said, your mixes always look great.
really good. i esp. love la Sonatine Bureaucratique
Stunning. Love the John Cage through My Bloody Valentine stretch especially.
