As usual Dan, I love your mix. Though many songs on it are terrific, "First of May" might be the greatest song ever. :-)
Thanks, AJ, I'm glad you enjoyed it! My wife digs that song, too. She told me she listened to it 5 times in a row one morning when she _really_ wasn't in the mood to go to work. As I recall you liked the Coulton song from last year as well!?
I was out of town when my discs arrived so I haven't had a chance to listen to them yet but I'm really looking forward to it. Great way to begin the new year!
(Sorry for the late reply.)
Yeah, I loved "Mandelbrot Set," but that was without really understanding what it was about. "First of May" is a little easier to parse. :-)
"You Don't Know Me" is also wonderful. Ben Folds and Regina Spektor should start a supergroup together. And "Acid Tongue" makes me want to hear that whole album even more.
Very strong mix throughout. I must confess I'm not too thrilled with the Fleet Foxes' debut, but you did pick my favorite song from it for the opening track.
