This mix has been gestating for decades.

A year ago, I was rooting around my bins of CDs, gathering music I wanted to use in a future mix on Soundwave. There was a herculean amount of labor finding those CDs. It meant going into the garage, pulling out 75-100 lbs bins of CDs, and sorting through every CD to find what I needed. I have literally put sweat into this mix.

The mix features songs I’ve played many years ago when I deejayed at WMFO. From there I’d segue from one cluster of songs to the next. I know from experience that these songs slot together like sonic LEGOS. Okay, maybe not the most elegant analogy, but you get the idea.

These songs mean things to me.

I hope you enjoy today’s show.

I discovered that when my CDs were in storage, nearly all the songs featured in today’s mix are no longer published. They’re rare gems.

Join us next week when our guest deejay will be Naneum.

See you then.
