I've been in one of those moods lately, especially tonight - the kind that sees me wanting to sit alone in my room with the shutters drawn and my subwoofer turned way up, just to get that warm feeling in my chest. Not everyone can sleep to this kind of music, but I love to. It's not strictly a sleep mix, either. It can be a rainy day mix, a "It's 3 am but I can't/don't want to sleep mix," or it can just be a "one of those days mix." Hopefully this mix - with all it's fuzzed-out, bass-heavy grooves - will help someone else who wants that deep-in-your-chest feeling.

Track Description:
I sometimes wonder if Kevin Shields had been listening to a lot of early Roxy Music when he was looking for that amazing guitar sound in Loveless, because the guitar in the intro to this song is just incredible, and would totally fit right in with that whole fuzzed-out shoegaze thing Shields had going.

TEAM 97 -- Third Place
Long before being knocked up with Eddie Murphy's illegitimate child, Scary Spice was on top of the world. Now, she's nothing but washed up. It's kind of sad, really. Just by scoring third place in this contest, you've got infinitely more street cred than Scary. Congrats!
