RHMB Communal REM Mix!

REM before bald or sensible haircuts
Remember when REM were great? I do. This mix consists of picks by a bunch of the people who post at the RHMB, it has some hits and fan favorites, and ended up being a good selection of songs that showcase their best 20 years (what? they didn't disband after Up? whaddyaknow) Here's the tracklist and after the "/" and the title is the boardie who picked the song!

Harri's 80s Retrospective Volume 3 Mix!

I threw together a third 80s mix (the first two are here), and I swear I would have had it ready sooner but I dunno... it was just MISSING SOMETHING and luckily I got turned on to a few really good bands in the last month from that decade so I could finish. But enough about me (boring), here's the music! It's a nice mix of upbeat cheese, synthyness, sad moaning, and strutting.

01 - Slow Children - Too Weak To Eat (3:01)
02 - Fools Face - Maiden U.S.A (2:17)
03 - Romeo Void - Shake The Hands of Time (3:20)
04 - Passionate Friends - Whats The Odds (4:22)
05 - Red Lorry Yellow Lorry - Beating My Head (3:45)
06 - Revillos - Where's The Boy For Me (2:03)
07 - Delmontes - Ga-Ga (2:57)
08 - The Great Unwashed - Boat With No Ocean (2:56)
09 - The Go-Betweens - Ask (5:11)
10 - Trees - Delta Sleep (3:43)
11 - Shox - No Turning Back (2:50)

Listening party is scheduled for next Sunday (the 12th) at 9 PM EST! and we're going to follow this mix with the megaMIX, music made by RHMBers, that is (from a different decade, though a good chunk of them were produced in the 80s, so maybe that counts OR SOMETHING). Just add the megaMIX to the end of the playlist.

download the megaMIX mp3!

fun!

P.S. streamable version will be up before Sunday!

Collision of Sex - Cyberpunk Mix: DL link and tracklist!

We'll have the listening party for this next week, on Sunday the 15th at 6PM EST but I'm going to go ahead and upload the mix to give people extra time to download it (and maybe give it a listen? THERE ARE NO RULES).

If you're wondering what my criteria for "cyberpunk" was for putting this together, I basically went with late 70s, early 80s European/Western synth heavy tracks that had ATTITUDE (punkish, gothic, or just synth-geek) and a "futuristic" sound. One rule of thumb is that I wanted music that wouldn't seem out of place on the Blade Runner soundtrack. ha!

Also, this mix was heavily inspired by Oldpunks.com's Cyberpunk selections, so if you like what you hear here, check that stuff out.

01 - Bal Parй - Raumpatrouille (2:07)
02 - Solid Space - Tenth Planet (2:46)
03 - Burlesque - Collision Of Sex (3:45)
04 - Philippe Laurent - Exposition Partie 5 (2:39)
05 - Trick 17 - City Nacht (2:14)
06 - Guerre Froide - Ersatz (2:45)
07 - Causey Way - Geological Lust (3:09)
08 - Wonders of Science - Lets Start A Rumour (2:26)
09 - Absolute Body Control - Waving Hands (3:23)
10 - Three To Forgotten - Ktano (3:31)
11 - Metal Urbain - Panik (2:15)
12 - Bitoks A La Russe - Tu Dois Partir (3:49)
13 - Psychic Youth - The Future Now (4:21)
14 - Ad Astra - A&R (2:54)
15 - Rational Youth - Coboloid Race (5:18)
16 - Rice and Miller - Cleanliness And Order (2:50)
17 - Nine Circles - What's There Left (5:19)
