Comment:

Dont you just love those romantic/comedy/drama movies of the early 90's that were really just vehicles for some great soundtracks? I mean, just think back to 'Reality Bites', 'Mad Love', '10 Things I Hate About You'... when looked back upon, these aren't exactly the stuff that great film is made of. They were just middling period pieces made to get kids into their local cinemas. And as if stealing their 7 dollars wasnt enough for an hour and a half of Winona Rider, Ben Affleck, Ethan Hawke, and in some good cases, Drew Barrymore... they would then fill the soundtrack with the 'hottest' in 'alternative bands' to further milk the helpless teenagers. My god, am I ever glad that they did!!! I cant get enough of these movies featuring Hollywood's ideas of what normal 'alterna-life' in the '90's was all about. So many cliches, so many bad on-screen kisses, so many great soundtracks!!! Getting to the point... in this mix, I tried to invoke the spirit of those wonderful 90's soundtracks by filling up a 120 minute cassette with songs that could have fit into any of those films, be it in lyrics, mood or sound. Heck, a few of these actually *were* in a few of those movies. I hope you enjoy my 'fictitious soundtrack' tribute to the soundtracks of the alternative soundtracks of the '90's!!!

It's all about building a film around a soundtrack these days. This is wonderful.
