this mix celebrates the versatility the human hands possesses as a percussion instrument. almost all these songs have real-life hand clapping, but a few feature the 808-synth hand clap sound as well. and to be honest, sometimes its very hard for me to distinguish between the two.
i was inspired to make this mix after watching Bjork's live DVD recorded at the Royal Opera House in London. they do a fantastic final performance of It's In Our Hands.
