Music To Counteract Rainy Day Doldrums


Hey Hey Hey!

Hey guess what?

No Votes, No votes, (sung in the style of Cake, to the tune of their hit, "No Phone")

Do you know what this means? It means I leave it to Fate. Fate, in the guise of that most unfeeling of randomization tools, the six-sided die. I have attached a numerical value to each of this week's mixes by rolling the die, and I shall roll to determine the outcome.

Drum-roll....

This week's Mixmaster mix is the product of ... Matt Lefferts!
All hail this weeks Mixmaster! Keep up the good work Matt!

Matt chose a heck of an opener, Stevie Wonder's "I Believe When I fall In Love"
which takes hope and turns it into jubilant funk. I might have swore at myself for leaving it out of my mix, but it appears we were of like mind on "Jungle" by Electric light orchestra. Great minds, truly. Here's the rest of the mix;

"Music To Counteract Rainy Day Doldrums."

01. I believe When I Fall in Love - Stevie Wonder
02. Jungle - ELO
03. Pick Up The Pieces - Average White Band
04. I Zimbra - Talking Heads
05. Close Behind - Calexico
06. Walk Of Life - Dire Straits
07. Once Chance - Modest Mouse
08. Lasso - Pheonix
09. Pillar of Salt - The Thermals
10. Little Cream Soda - The White Stripes


Only ten you say? What about the rules? Well, tough noogies, the fates have spoken!

I had a lot of fun listening to the mixes you all suggested. In my music nook. With my steel headphones plugged into the Hi-Fi . In my bean bag chair. On the shag... moving on. I hope some listening was done on your end somewhere, to something, preferably some of the previously mentioned tracks.

Another week of Mixing and listening is yet to come! Are you excited? Heck, I just wet myself!

Without Further hubub, this week's Theme (with one vote) is :

" Soundtrack Favorites (film) "

Post your 12 track listings and new themes! Send your Votes! New round begins on Tues, February 16th!

If you require the rules , Check the First note. If you want out, just untag yourself.

Thanks again for the mixes this week guys! YOU ARE NOT FINISHED!
I HUNGER FOR MORE MIX!
(chex mix?)
