"Tiny tears make up an ocean..."

Hands up and open your veins if you like a good melancholic tune. It's been far too happy here in the mixed up world of Herbal T so let's get the angst in our pants. This mix is a late night special; light a candle, stare at the stars, open a bottle of Jamesons and press play.

(Yeah I know, Terry Jacks version of Season in the Sun is sort of funny but it did fit in quite well.)

As always, the link to download is in the comments (See down below this post? The word 'comments'?

"Let's get together..."

When artists collaborate it usually ends in disaster, yet occasionally the sum is greater than the parts. Now I know some purists will be spitting blood at the sacred likes of the Stone Roses or the Pistols getting messed around with but I do think that the following work quite well. So download and play loud.

SCOTT WALKER/DAVID SYLVIAN – JOBRIATH.
PRIMAL SCREAM – HIGHER THAN THE SUN (ORB EXTENDED)

"I had to start it somewhere..."

Welcome - the first posting is a mix of tracks that are doing it for me at the moment. Some obvious new pieces from elder statesmen, a few from nouveau indie darlings such as Courteeners to the truly unusual Wild Beasts (if you have not heard their new album, get it.)

Link in comments - hope you like it.

Will try to give a weekly mix at the very least.
