liner notes

I'm originally from good old Blighty, but have ended up in the middle of the United States after some disasterous chronon experiments... or my family just moved here when I was younger, I can never seem to remember.

I'm a big fan of the late John Peel, so I'd like to think that I've developed a taste for many, many different varieties of music. When I'm not listening to music, I'm usually in my favourite cozy chair reading a book. Again, I like variety in my books - crime novels, science fiction, westerns, biographies, historical texts, graphic novels. It's always good to mix it up.

It is my desire to be a writer at some point in the future, hopefully a novelist. My goal in life at the moment is to have at least one novel published (although a good twenty or thirty more than that wouldn't hurt my ego either... ahem).

In my opinion, if you want to really nail a mix like this, taste has to go out the window. In fact, if you've strived to make a potpouri or Frankenstein mix listenable, then you're going in the wrong direction. Your mix, much like the great monster, should be quite hideous, bordering on unlistenable. However, the masses enjoy disaster movies, they gawk endlessly at mangled cars on the side of the highway and burning carpet factories, so if you can make your mix an utter catastrophe, folks will listen all the way through... just to hear what hits 'em next.

I made this mix to put a little sunshine in my day if I'm feeling down. Every track is mood boosting in some way or another: lyrics that hint at escapism, gorgeous melodies straight out of the Lennon/McCartney playbook, or simply a bit of joyous/playful/silly musicianship that brings a smile to my face.

You're probably right: I've not read the novels since I was 12 or so. I should probably dust them down again one of these days.
