The first thing I thought of when I read this contest description was "1, 2, 3, 4..." like I was lining up all the songs in the right order, and then all of a sudden, "...I declare a thumb war" attached itself to the end. So that's my title!
I just wanted to have a little fun with it and include some cool songs.
I also did another 'degrees of separation' type mix before this contest, so feel free to check it out as well: "We're All In The Same Gang"
Good luck to all, and to all a good night!

...Capitol A also guests on a Jimpster track off the 2006 'Amour' album from the UK DJ/remixer. This particular track is a good way to end the mix. It takes you to a different, dreamlike place (we started two tracks ago with Quasimoto). And since we started the mix with an artist from the UK, why not finish it with another one? Jimpster is Jamie Odell and co-runs Freerange Records in the UK. SHOW LESS
