Comment:

Track numbers are mere gestures. Play once; repeat.
CaravanThe lady in her silver-grey spectacularDressing-room prepares,Twisting at the mirror,Of son and daughter the careers.Also in the eveningHe who collects dungConjures an August moonWhere he may once bringHer flushed and salt, supine.The blue vase having finalWit glitters fragileUntil at the horizonTo sky and sea allDivides, throwing off season.Thus kept delicatelyIn appalling storm theBuds will begin againTheir white difficultyTo the mature and green.Waves, guilt, all winter tearsDraw tingling nearerAnd hang a glass for apparition . .As the words here areAt work upon salvation.-- John Berryman

John Giorno! Now if that ain't groovy, I don't what is! Otherwise, I've only heard of a smattering of these artists -- but I'll bet it's great!

I (meaning myself) can't be absolutely sure (who, as 'tis said in small, huddling circles, can ever be sure with mixes Burnsian)...but I think (pure conjecture on my part, really, I mean I get a feeling more then anything else) that this mix (Curtis' latest offering and 1st September mix, he has waited until the 4th to get started but will no doubt make up for that over the next several days) is one of those types of Burnsian mixes that I can really sink my teeth into (in other words savor, relish, totally enjoy via headphones)
...then again, I may have totally misconstrued (but I think not).

The labber is OTM, for sure. From the handful of artists I know on here, I can only assume that this is filled with all sorts of noisy goodness.

Big thumbs up for the inclusion of the Liars, and the Terry Riley pick too. "Track numbers are mere gestures" is definitely a philosophy I like to adopt regarding this kind of mix - or, at least, how I imagine this would sound. Looks great.
