AUBREEVISION - Observations from the far side of the dial
There is Art
Speaking of mix tapes, there's nothing quite like them. Mixed CDs don't have the same homemade flavour - the volume fluctuations, the crackles and distortions. There is art in choosing the songs and in finding their optimal order, or in letting it find you; there is skill in allowing for various song lengths so there's no long gap or cut-off track at the end of a side.
Each tape is a touchstone in time, past you washing freely over now you, uncontrolled and bittersweet.
The first five tracks on today's rediscovered mix tape:
- Never on Your Life/Natalie Merchant
- Paper Bag/Fiona Apple
- Why Pt. 1/Collective Soul
- Dirty Dream Number Two/Belle and Sebastian
- It All Depends on You/Squirrel Nut Zippers
