Almost There




So for the last couple months I have been working on an epic 5 hour after-wedding-happy-hour-mix thing for J&B. I think it is really close to being wrapped up.

maybe.

the hardest part has been trying to balance the happy hour feel and song content. putting together 5 hours of songs and keeping them (relatively) upbeat and pro love is trickier than you would think. it might still be a little to slow for a little to long at about hour 4 but I still have a month to pull it all together.


here's a track list sample of the first hour.

Shake Your Rump -- Beastie Boys
Mas Que Nada -- Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66
Goldfinger -- Propellerheads Feat. Shirley Bassey
Go-Go Gadget Gospel -- Gnarls Barkley
Pump It Up -- Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Happy Sad -- Pizzicato Five
Tennessee -- Arrested Development
Don't Mug Yourself -- The Streets
Take On Me -- A-Ha
Groove Is In the Heart -- Deee-Lite
100 Yard Dash -- Raphael Saadiq
L´Estasi Dell´Oro -- Ennio Morricone
Organ Donor (Extended Overhaul) -- DJ Shadow
War Pigs/Luke's Wall -- Black Sabbath
New Resolution -- Heartless Bastards
Kata Rokkar -- Björk Gudmundsdóttir & Trió Gudmundar Ingólfssonar
