Our friend lotophage is back with a 2-hour mix for the Drum & Bass heads. From the man himself:

"Over the years, I've amassed a significant collection of music that exists just outside the boundaries of mainstream Drum & Bass. The problem I've had with these tunes has always been "These are great! When will I ever use them?". The solution was simple (or so I thought), "I'll just throw them all together in one mix!". If you've heard my mixes before, you probably know that I like to base them around themes. What kind of theme can you apply to a group of songs that seem to have nothing in common?

After tinkering around with some ideas for several weeks and getting nowhere, I found inspiration from some unexpected sources. I recently re-read Sandman by Neil Gaiman and one character in particular has always intrigued me... Delirium. Her moments of clarity and insight while being enveloped in madness helped me create the underlying theme I was envisioning for this mix. I also acquired a couple of paintings by a local LA artist, Audrey Kawasaki, that are these burlesque inspired, vintage circus posters. These helped show me that while the tunes I included were very diverse and unlike the others, there was still a place for them in the story. I hope you have as much fun listening to this mix as I did putting it together. Venez l'expérience du Délire Fantastique!"
