mixtape II

I got this tape from a Texan girl I used to go out with in Sydney...but it had been passed along a few times. It kind of gives away it's Houston roots with a few tracks, but i don't know who made it originally. Lost track of the girl too....

 

Tracklisting

Prince - When you were mine

I love Prince...the one time I dj'd in front of an audience I had to bite back the temptation to play the dirty mind album in it's entirety

Tamsin Archer - Sleeping satellites

bit odd in this company, but a fine pop tune really

Geto Boys - Let a Ho be a Ho

well, not keen on the sentiments but it's so much fun! m'fking gold digging beeatches with cash register samples

Parliament - Let me Be

Yeah, George...leave me alone! odd but i like it...

Stick People - Brandy Dance

Weird...makes me think of Jon Cryer in Pretty in Pink, but in a good way....

Prince - Seven

I like how the tape compiler used the 'symbol' to indicate the artist throughout his/her tracklisting.

Bad Brains - Leaving Babylon

Great punky reggae

Prince - Bambi

Funkadelic - Biological Speculation

Fugazi - Margin Walker

I went to see Donnie Brasco at the pictures the girl who gave me this, and realised what a fugazi actually was and how to pronounce this word. Knew the band through Nirvana and this rocks

Parliament - Mothership Connection

beam me up, george!

Slackface - Planet Xenon

Flesh for Lulu - House 'o cards

Must be from a soundtrack to an independant 1993 romantic comedy film about a group of hip american twenty something gen xers. I mean that as a compliment

Wendy and Lisa - I think it was December

Prince, basically...so great

Scarface - I'm Dead

Used to be in the Geto Boys, a Houston collective. i've got a couple of twelve inches with cool drum and bass mixes from goldie and 4 hero. Quite dark, about a guy who realises he's actually a ghost. Well funky though.
