Another excellent mood, Gene uh, Gary! Nice of you to include the sample from that Parisian horn-toting dude n in the subway, Rufus, is it?; (too bad you didn't capture any audio from the line outside the ladies' WC!)


*.& I'm only sulking 'cause I don't have this on headphones right now.
(Officer Reilly gave me the tip-off on this here mix post, yeah)

...and he's upped the ante, ladies & germs..."Muzag Field Recording", indeed! I've heard tell of the roving recorder out 'til all hours, wandering the heath in search of the perfect sample. ~ :-p

I was going to say "a whale of a mix," but I won't.

Glorious as ever Gary. Incredibly, Caesaria, Casino vs. Japan and Perhacs have been floating around in my head and on my music devices for the past coupla weeks. How's about throwin' this on the pile? I need to hear the Muzag phonography branch.

This looks awesome, Gary. I would love to get this to add to the others in this brilliant series. I have the first seven and would love to trade with you once again for the others. Please drop me a line when you have a minute, my friend.

After popping this in yesterday, I realized that my wildest imaginations of what this might sound like had not prepared me for what actually flowed from my headphones. This is stunning - just stunning - I still haven't gotten over the listening experience - new worlds have opened - new universes formed - new eggs hatched. Outstanding on all counts.

While the art of the mix is visible every day in the recent submissions list, the craft, more often than not, reveals itself only in the listening. Muzag is among the finest craftsmen here. Mixing the profound and the profane with an unerring ear for detail. He constructs mixes in that space where radio stations battle for bandwidth. Where songs battle static, beats struggle against stasis. Every thing here demands attention and when a piece pokes out from the mist, you damn well better listen. In fact, yeah, ask Gary for one of these...you damn well better listen.
