Comment:

the second half of the daytime/nighttime series made for one tj, this one being the nighttime music installment. the songs here delight me and terrify me and fucking knock the wind out of me. as usual, sequencing was absolutely crucial (and, as usual, i made countless obsessive lists and permutations in preparation for it). for the daytime predecessor, see "rush hours and red herrings."

it's a shame no one else commented on this mix or the previous one. i suppose there's something typically mixtapish about them that might make people overlook them, and no catchy gimmick or ultra-obscure hip-points-for-knowing-of-them bands (er.... unlike some of mine), but that's not important when it's so good.

and although i no longer drive the van with the tape deck, your tapes you made me are still in regular rotation in my walkman.

all of this a long way of saying we should trade mix tapes (or cds if you wish, i'd prefer tapes) again. the ones i made you before really weren't that good i'm afraid and i think i could better.
