Volume 2

I have to wonder, aside from Twig, who else read the title of this post and thought "Electric Boogaloo"?

On to matters of note. By now, most of you should have received the May 2011 version of this project. If you haven't, you surely will today or tomorrow. If I've ruined the surprise, my apologies. Then again, what the hell are you doing lurking around this blog without disc in hand!?!??!

Anyways, I hope you enjoy. It was much harder that I anticipated. Not only cutting songs down to one disc's worth, but also the arrangement and pacing. But I think I produced a fun, worthwhile mix. Certainly not every song will be everyone's cup of tea, and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't very intrigued and looking forward to reactions, commentary and criticisms.

That being said, I thought I might get a little experimental. On the "left" side of your disc, you'll see a circled number. This was a randomly generated number that correlates with a track number. If you do decide to post on the blog, I thought it might be cool for each group member to post specific info regarding the randomly assigned track. Some tidbit of info about the song or artist, the year it was recorded, a particular lyric, or any musing inspired by the track. Completely understandable if you don't feel like I have earned the right to assign you homework, but the idea of group based research seemed worth a try.

Track list will be posted in a day or two. Happy Listening!
