☸ Drumsex ☸
My favorite trap set performances, in no particular order, though the most amazing ones are near the top. All my playlists I've posted so far on this site have been actual CD-R's I've burned, but this one is just an open-ended list to which I'll be periodically adding songs. I've been working on this list for about a decade, starting on my previous computer. It's extremely important. Note: I often included a song preceded by the song from which its drums are sampled. E.g. Lynn Collins - "Think (About It)" followed by Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock - "It Takes Two."

Ways out (Bodies in bedlam) (1/06)
Mostly long, fairly noisy / atonal / intense, psychdedelic-but-not-"psychedelic™" songs that are good for car rides. The "Bodies in bedlam" subtitle comes from a lyric in the Sonic Youth song.

For Joey Buttons (3/29/14)
2 CD-R's of electronic-based stuff, similar to the mix made for Damion 2 weeks earlier. Made them that morning & brought them to him at the spring Record Raid @ Tulane. Note: Fluke's "Atom Bomb" is the edited 3:58 version from MTV's Amp. And the final song, which last.fm won't let me add, is Dead Hand System's "Founder (Stripped Vocal Mix)." Would've included Telefon Tel Aviv's "My Week Beats Your Year" but I figured he had their albums, and sure enough, he told me he went to high school with both members of TTA.

For Damion (Mar. 14, 2014)
All electronic stuff. Tracks 1 to 3 are Zombi-related projects. (The length of track 9 is actually 5:33.)

It came, indirectly, from the South (Oct. 2013) - for the Mushroom
I'm not into "Southern rock" at all, and I in fact actively go out of my way to avoid it. But I've noticed lots of my favorite songs have a SR influence, so I put some on a CD for the folks at the Mushroom.

Comsat Angels mix CD #2 for self (ca. 2006)
I had acquired more of the Comsats' stuff by this time, so I made another, better mix CD

Stop me if you think you're pretty in pink (Oct. 2, 2013)
For a friend for her 30th bday. Gave this to her in the parking lot right before we walked into Tipitina's to see Wild Nothing & Local Natives. (It seemed fitting since WN is basically the modern era's Smiths.)

SuMMeR 2013 mix CD for self (2) - Sept. 2013
Lots of Last.fm's times are messed up on here. (The James Brown song is 5:00 long.) Couldn't add an obscure mashup (Simple Minds vs. LCD Soundsystem - "Don't You Forget About Someone Great") because it's not on Last.fm apparently. That song is #14 on this CD, between White Lung & Anal Cunt. The Peter Gabriel remix is a "yacht bounce" remix by Ruffkut 504. And the artist for track 3 is technically Quannum MC's Meet Jurassic 5, and it's just a 2:05 version.

Comsat Angels mix CD for self (2005)
All I had at the time was their bootleg "box set" It's History (which compiles their first 3 LPs and a dics of b-sides / rarities), their lone album under the name Dream Command, and My Mind's Eye. So this is basically a condensed version of the box set onto one disc for car rides. Not sure why I added the cover by Silkworm at the end.

AppendMix for Em (Apr. 3, 2013)
Subtitled "On a warpath with no remorse" (lyric from the Puro Instinct song). Made for & given to my sister the day after she had her appendix removed. Amazingly, I was too dumb to add a song by Appendix Out, whose album The Rye Bears A Poison is owned by yours truly.

X-Tended Action (mid 2005)
A few long, mutating, epic trax. Was going to give to Jessica as a reward for quitting smoking, but she never did, so I kept it.

Sonic Youth 1986-88, for self (made in mid-'00s)
I'm pretty sure this is the one I gave to the Mushroom in '07, but I might've been a slightly a different S.Y. mix CD.
