I think the title prettymuch says what you'll hear here.

This is a mix exclusively containing shoegazing, nügazing, and dreampop. If played at high volumes, the induced effects may include arousal, a loss of coordination, a spontaneous wish to not be wearing clothes anymore, and it's not entirely out of the question to find your legs giving way and writhing on whatever surface you have fallen onto in order to better feel the texture of it against your skin while these songs lovingly, lustingly caress your eardrums.

If you don't believe me, simply say so and i'll upload it for you to judge for yourself.

Track 1 from The Pink Opaque
Length: 00:04:40
Year: 1985
Track Description:
So i think that most people who've heard a good amount of Cocteau Twins' recorded output would agree that this is among their best songs. I am, obviously, among that number. But is that a reason why you should like it? No, you should like it because it's amazing. Fluh.

And i thought this would be a perfect way to start this off...it just starts out with a beat. Like the beating of a heart.

Track 1 from Pink (Import)
Length: 00:07:33
Year: 2005
Track Description:
I'd heard a couple of Boris albums before i heard Pink, so i knew they were a diverse band. But even so, this first track threw me for a loop when i heard it. I was like 'It remins me of slowdive." And i didn't mean that in a way like Boris was ripping them off (as it doesn't really sound a lot like Slowdive, that was just a first impression), i was just astounded. This is really a beautiful track.

Track Description:
So this starts off side two, energetic and lovely. The repeating distorted bassline reminds me of some sort of EBM thing.

And while the year's not over yet, this record almost definitely has a place on my top albums list of 2006.

So we're stepping back into dreampop territory with this very danceable song. If you're not listening to this by yourself, you should've finished the foreplay a bit ago and be in the middle of coitus...because it sounds to me like this song was meant for it.

Track 9 from Loveless
Length: 00:03:38
Year: 1991
Track Description:
I think anyone who doesn't have a turntable should buy a turntable. And then buy Loveless on vinyl. Because while it's an amazing album on cd, when you hear it on vinyl the effect is...well, orgasm-inducing, honestly.

This is my favorite MBV song, musically and lyrically. "once in love, i'll be the death of you..."

It ends with this...because it's like you're drifting back to sleep. Did you dream it all?
