Y Tu Madre - A mix for my mom.

First of all I should probably preface this posting by saying I no longer have the radio show "La Petite Morte", in fact it went through a little death about a year ago. But I am bringing it BACK..in the form of a music blog/things I am interested in blog. I'll be posting regular mixes and podcasts, and trying to maintain some sort of order without going into whiney blogger category.

Here's a screen shot from my most favorite show in the world: Soultrain (vintage only). I'll probably do a posting on this show alone sometime!

So here's my first reposting. This is a mix my friend John and I made for my mom who could definetly use some postive good tunes in her life right now. My mom is really into dub, reggae, afrobeat, etc (I swear she was a rasta in a previous life) and since John has lots of good vinyl in those genres, I asked him to help out. I threw in some soul and funk for the kill too. (sorry about the levels being a little off... we mixed it live and thought we could adjust the levels later... turns out thats not such a good idea)
