My first attempt at a ‘Mixed Mix’. And I post this with some excitement. Yes, I know this genre may have many people hiding behind the sofa, but I urge y’all to give this a listen. Because I reckon it is quite listenable, and I’m actually rather proud of the result. As it progresses the ‘mixing’ gets more confident and assured, and more importantly it’s a lot of fun. Well my idea of, anyway…
