oh nine

A new year, a new mix.

And another blog in the 'sphere. Where it will go is unknown, but slow music meltdown is meant to make available some mixes, and if motivated, provide some commentary on music, perhaps other items. To kick it off publicly (as there are previous posts) I present oh nine. Like most of my mixes, it came about by remembering choice cuts from recent purchases, and otherwise trying to fill the gaps on the fly. I sometimes wonder if my mixes would be better if carefully planned out and practiced, but I mostly tend to favor taking it as it comes - spontaneity can be both a blessing and a curse.

I'll let you judge this (and any before or after) for yourself. Happy New Year.

The sender is sure that you are all equally uninterested in spamming one another, so it should not be a problem. It is a new year's resolution of the sender to never make this ghastly mistake for the rest of '09 and beyond. Thanks for reading this far down the post.
