later, in time

+ since 2001 i've been archiving mix CDs and tapes that i've made on a website made specifically for such a purpose. i forgot about it at some point, 2005? i found it again and put everything up at once and then i got a warning. only three new mixes per 24hr period or i'd be banned. sorry!

so, now i post a few every once in a while, all tidily up to date. i've got over 40 mixes posted now, which just kinda happened over the last 8 years.

i get comments from people i don't know and will never meet. "very cool. a lot of good stuff on here." says tubesock. "this looks like a great listen from top to bottom" says doowad. "I like the look of that Drop Nineteens and La's pairing." says arktical. hey, thanks man, so do i!

it's nice to track the moment where i realised that what mattered was not whether a song came out in a certain year, but whether i heard it first in that year. it's autobiography, not a chart.

+ not an unexamined life but an unrecorded life, i guess.
