Shadoobie. This is a FTOTZ mix I made for mandalaya, from Rotterdam. I let her know that she could be my proxy on July 6th and attend the Metropolis Festival at Zuiderpark and see DeVotchKa and Murder By Death for me. (see Mix Contest XXI entry). I tried to stick with an all 1899 feel, but the occasional electric guitar and existential trip to the 1970’s sneaked in. This is another soundtrack for another film in my head. It has a loose narrative that I’m a teenager in 1899 and Spring Break is approaching. Please to enjoy. Skadoosh.
