Track #8:

Spoiler: show

was that taylor swift?

[Lament]

Yeah, I think so.

[Heathen]

this could be harmless, actually

maybe it's time we stop pointing fingers and show some fucking empathy so people get a chance to improve themselves

[Lament]

I have it on good authority that mix #4 will be all metal.

[Heathen]

and since I didn't make it it will be terrible

[Lament]

Word on the street is that it is actually all of the greatest metal songs ever being performed by you, so in a certain sense you did make it.

[Heathen]

well I'm looking forward to it then

[Norah]

Alright guys, this mix was totally mine. I can't believe you guys couldn't figure that out!

1: Zero - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
2: Living Room - Tegan & Sara
3: Shadrach - The Beastie Boys
4: Dance Apocalyptic - Janelle Monae
5: Zealots - The Fugees
6: Paris is Burning - St. Vincent
7: Recover - CHVRCHES
8: State of Grace - Taylor Swift
9: Don't Ask For More - Adam Green & Binki Shapiro
10: Shaking Through - REM
11: Disaster - The Mynabirds
12: White Teeth Teens - Lorde
13: Ugly - Violent Femmes

Some notes: I was trying to make a tight mix with Lament in mind, but well crafted enough so others would like it too. I listened to this a bunch over the last month and I think it came out really well. I actually like that Taylor Swift song, so fuck all of you. I didn't craft the mix around it necessarily, but it was the first song I knew I wanted to make fit somehow, and made it a challenge to make it work. I had about 4 or 5 more songs on my rough draft, but really wanted to trim the fat on this one for the final product. If you haven't heard that Adam Green & Binki Shapiro album you should really check it out. It's wonderful. Also, White Teeth Teens is easily the best Lorde song, so you're welcome for making you listen to it.

[Lament]

That mix is gonna be hard to beat in my book.

[William Bloke]

Yep, great mix chud - cheers and all that. I enjoyed it from go to whoah and it certainly flowed nicely.

Bring on mix #4.

[Norah]

I'm pretty sure Zero is the most Matt Lament song of all time.

[Lament]

I think my co-workers at the club who are sick of hearing it would agree with you.

[Lament]

While chud did an excellent job at denying responsibility his mix (so much so that he had stip thinking it might have been harmless), Varis might have one upped with his move of giving his own mix a lukewarm review right at the start and throwing everyone off of his trail.

If I gave mine a lukewarm review it would be an obvious lie. You all know I love most of these songs.

[Lament]

Yeah, that's very true.

[Norah]

I had two choices. Admit it was me or admit how obvious it looked like me but deny it nonetheless.

[stip]

That was a really good mix, Chud. One fairly outside my wheelhouse, too.

I keep listening to zero and I even put dance apocalyptica onto my current playlist, which surprised me.

[Norah]

apocalyptic

[stip]

Not anymore
