Greetings to all, I hope this message finds you well! It's a new year and I've just completed a new mix! Volume 19 to be exact! Listen People is a collection of songs that have captivated my mind over the past few years, which for me has been a time of great reflection. With all the things going on in the world, good and bad, it's always nice to come back to music, something that can be healing and bring us all together. At least that's my hope. This mix is somewhat of a continuation of my 2021 mix "I don't want any flowers" which was a dreamy introspective psych folk mix. Listen People continues down the road a little further but perhaps leans into positivity a bit more than the former. Songs about passing time, life, love, family, gratitude. travel, change, etc... I thought a lot about my childhood and my parents generation while making this one, taking comfort in old memories of simpler times when people enjoyed each others' company and lent a helping hand in times of need. The hippies that grew up and had kids I guess. Anyhow, I don't need to rattle on any longer. Here's a collection of some great folk, rock and pop songs from the late 60s and early 70s that'll hopefully resonate with you. The title of the mix is taken from the French psych band Triangle's song "Listen People" which happens to be featured on the mix. Thanks to all who've been listening to my mixes from the beginning and are still here! Stay positive and enjoy the music!

Here's a collection of seven different EPs by Jacques Dutronc ranging from 1966-1970! 26 songs total, over an hour and ten minutes of non-stop Dutronc! I don't need to tell you how good this guy is... Ripped from the original 7" singles at 320 for your listening pleasure. Each EP is contained in it's own folder with front and back artwork! Enjoy.

NEW LINK (2025) - Light Reflections - Tell Me Once Again 7" (1973)
Here's another somewhat obscure single from the early 70s by a Brazilian based group called Light Reflections. Tell Me Once Again (Side A) is a sweet and smooth love ballad. Nice mellow jazzy electric guitar tones, sentimental string arrangements, organs, bass, drums... Both of these tracks are sung in English (with a good thick accent!). Once again, I was after the B-Side when I tracked this one down. Eyes Blue Eyes is a dark and trippy downtempo pop tune with a strong liturgical organ intro leading into some slow rimshot breaks driven by a descending pick-bass line. Vocals are very laid back and nice on this one (melancholy and dreamy). A smoky atmospheric pop tune not to be missed! Ripped from vinyl at 320 kbps, includes cover scans!

NEW LINK (2025) - Autumn Moon - Compiled & Mixed by The Cowboys From Sweden (2015)

Okay, here's a new Cowboys from Sweden mix I finished today called Autumn Moon. It was intended to be a Fall/Winter mix, so naturally with my luck it lands ironically on the first day of Spring! Anyway, it's a mix of trippy psychedelic folk/pop and library songs from the late 60s and early 70s. Also I believe this is the first Cowboys mix that is entirely in English (and includes only 3 instrumentals). I thought a lot about my time living in Prague (featured on the cover) when I made this, so the mood is pretty old, overcast, grey and dreamy. To quote the film The Science of Sleep, this mix is roughly based on the themes of "Love, friendships, relationships... and all those 'ships' "... I hope you enjoy, it's a moody one!
Ripped at 320 kbps, includes front and back covers.
