Hello its been a while with the mixes..
download here



This mix contains every genre tag on this blog so it should be interesting, it marks the end of one era and the beginning of another, as mixes sometimes do. And i didn't make it for anyone once again but it definitely has people in mind, those that inspire, and those that cause pain.. and then the ones that do both.

can't really tell you what this is because i know only one of the players (takeshi inomata) but it's pretty damn cool. it gets better as it progresses.

download: cloudy, since you went away.

just for back from exploring the north, where i

hiked, thrifted, explored, and ate the best food around los gatos
as well as went on a 50 ft swing and attended an afternoon jazz jam session
accompanied my jazz buds and watched em play a party in berkeley
swam in the ocean in carmel; got seafood, taffy, vinyls, and vhs's in monterey,
hiked around ucsc, ate hella mexican food & visited friends in santa cruz

besides having too much fun, i had a bit of a jazz overdose
but picked up the liasions dangereuses soundtrack, which rules :D
here's all things related:



no hay problemas is from the soundtrack, and goldie's just a great tune



also picked up led zeppelin III, the best of spirit, otis redding's dock of the bay...
and the following on vhs (50 cents each!): sleeper, small time crooks, amadeus, deer hunter, fanny & alexander, life is beautiful, and la confidential. comedy & tear jerker blowout
