MIX #9 - WE OBSERVE THE MYTH TONIGHT

We threw out all the general rules for our "Eccentrics and Dreamers" mix and just dug deep into our archives - we went a little heavy on Robyn and Roky, but it just feels...right. This mix has some noise, some humor, some creepiness, and some weirdness. Thanks to all those who threw in their tracks, including Sean, Jay, Jeff, Corey, and Scott (who I believe singlehandledly delivered every single Elephant 6 selection). And thanks to magazines like Magnet (which may not be around in any form in a few years) that put the time and effort into writing such an extensive and interesting feature in the firstplace.
