Comment:

This is the first mix as part of the Human iPod Experiment. This was my original introduction on my website:

Whilst lying in bed last night, feeling sick and unable to sleep, I decided that the only vision I could see of humanity's future lead to ROBOTICS. Lying in my bed, my eyes staring open at my record "collection", I have a brainwave. I shall become the antithesis of the iPod, by becoming the auto-iPod! This is a fancy way for saying I decide to make a mix tape compiled ENTIRELY RANDOMLY by shutting my eyes, picking out a 7" from all my records scattered on my bed and more often than not, taping the b-side. (And no spoilers here, but some of them are AMAZING!)

90 minutes later, I'm done. I've experienced a whizz-bang tour of my musical history, I've laughed, I've thought "bloody hell, this is a good record after all", and I er, may have thrown a record out of my window in sheer bloody annoyance. If anyone in Peckham wants a slightly battered copy of Superchunk's Hello Hawk, then it's probably still lurking round the back of my flat somewhere. I developed a rule of ONLY ONE VETO PER SIDE. I have no doubt developed a very annoyed flatmate, if she woke up (especially if she woke up to the last song on side one).
