I know I've been away from the "mixtape game" for "a minute," so I thought I would make up for lost time by compiling this massive MP3 mixtape that clocks in at just under 3 hours. Honestly, I've been obsessively curating this thing for months; starting from my week of rural seclusion in Connecticut, drinking whiskey and listening to music in front of a roaring fireplace, continuing on through wine-water soaked evenings of post-grad-school application torpor, until now, my days of wintertime housesitting hermitage in Providence.
The mix concerns itself primarily with music made during the 70s in South American, North American and European countries, generically focussing on rock, prog, psych, prog-rock, psych-synth, synth-prog, MPB, smooth-Brazilian, rough-Brazilian, smooth-prog, prog-folk, hard-psych, loner-rock, samba-prog, and so forth.
Guardian-style "spotter's badges" for excellent recommendations have been earned by the princely phantom at mysteryposter, Tony Coulter, Jake Gorchov, Steve Villereal, Museo Rosenbach, Mutant Sounds , and Prog Not Frog.
The mix is available in one 3 hour MP3 from one of the links below. If you use the moment when the vocals first come in during the Doracor track as a middle point, the mix can be split into two equal 90 minute tape-lengths. If anyone makes two C90's out of this, well that's just delightful.
(In case you get lost in the playlist, I've marked the minute in which the song starts, for speedy reference.)
