Circa 20 years ago, and before on demand music streaming, I’d regularly pump out mix CDs to take with me on the go. I’d grab just under 80 minutes of whichever tracks I was obsessed with that week, and sort out the order and flow after, rarely with a theme. Most were lost as scratched up CD-Rs in a glove compartment or backpack, but some came together nicely, got cover art, and stuck around a while. A few really stood the test of time (for me at least), and I return to listen to them years later - here’s one*. Hope you enjoy this snapshot of what I had on repeat 17 years ago, and still do today, apparently.
