Working on the "Alpha? You bet." mix reminded me of this dropped mix. The idea was to make of mix of songs with grouping of five, seven and five-minute long songs. This mix started to take off with some killer tracks, and then time passed, without anything coming of it.

The "Haiku" titled tracks are the Nobel laureate, George Seferis' poetry, from Greek into English. I guess it is similar to what Billy Bragg and Wilco did on Mermaid Avenue with Woody Guthrie's work.

Consider Mike Myers, "This Poem Sucks" added to the list. I wanted to bookend the mix and add Moz in the middle and call it good.
