Comment:

This mix is for my nine year old cousin who lives in Pakistan. I was in Pakistan in the summer and brought my desert island picks - Black Foliage by the Olivia Tremor Control being one of them - and surprizingly enough my cousin got into them. Well, he only got into 4 songs, but hey, he got into them! My mom is going to Pakistan soon to escape the cold, cold winter and I'm sending along a mix. He only got into the poppier stuff, so only pop in here. A pretty weak mix, but my intent is to make a highly accesable, simple mix.

Ditto. You can't live without 'Be My Baby' and 'Good Vibrations', so job done!

Nifty. I like to think that if every 9-year-old around the world listen to a bit of Olivia Tremor Control, the world would be a better place. Who'd want to start a war when you could slip on some headphones and zone out to the "Green Typewriters" suite?

You can't call anything which contains these great tracks a weak mix. Is that you in the truck, Salman?

Nope. That's some dude's picture I found on the net. Seems like a lovely chap though.

A cool mix for any age. Bringing the world closer together one 9-year-old at a time. I like it.

Good stuff! Let us know if you're cousin likes it - setting any 9 year old up with some Kinks and Beach Boys is certainly a good thing!

Catch em whilst they're young (& impressionable) Wish someone had done something similar for me when I was 9!

Pretty much exactly what French said - I'm sure he'll love the mix, especially the Beach Boys. Let us know what he thinks!

good job, for a 9 year old (or a 39 year old). He'll love it (En Shallah), but do let us know.
