Comment:

31) Jon Brion - Theme (Eternal Sunshine) 32) Rockapella - Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? (Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?)
So this week on our radio show we obviously played all stuff off soundtracks from movies, tv shows and musicals. During air breaks we played cartoon theme songs from some Toon Tunes compilations (Jonny Quest, Ren & Stimpy, Inspector Gadget, Tale Spin...). It was a lot of fun to play, and lots of fun to listen to! You can download or stream it here: http://asucd.ucdavis.edu/radio/showme.cfm?show=785&title=Never%20Speak%20in%20Absolutes&back=_grid
you can also listen live to KDVS 90.3 in davis at www.kdvs.org

I think the danger with a soundtrack mix is that it could quickly become predictable or boring, but there's no danger of that here! I love the eclecticism of this mix . . . and kudos for including two of my favourite composers: Mancini and Elfman.
