Continuing on my theme of music which evokes feeling of a place, this week I'm dedicating my mix to my parents who upped sticks to return to live and work on the Navajo Reservation in Arizona.
The mix is big and expansive like the American desert skies. It's mellow, but rolls on into the distance. Driving music for endless highways.

Friday Mixtape #22 - I Love LA - mp3
Today's mixtape is a bit better late than never, a loud yet dreamy ode to my homeland. Okay, I've never called LA home, but it is the nearest metropolis to where I grew up. It's loud, brash, punk, hot n dreamy. I tried to capture that freeway-beachy-kitschy-urban-dried up-glamour that it oozes. This is the soundtrack to long long car journeys, and long lazy afternoons in the dusty hills or sandy seaside. Every time I visit, I ache to just stay. Who knows, I may just call it home in the near future.
Special kisses to my brother and all my good good friends living life on the sunny side.

Friday Mixtape #21 - I Heart Paris
This week I'm going to start something slightly different - this is the first of a series of mixes inspired by destinations.
This week: Love Action Loves Paris....
A francophile mix of music either created or inspired by the City of Lights. Light and breezy, electro dizzy, even a bit hip hop - the city is a mix of culture, the old and the new, the genius and the mad. There were so many brilliant "Paris" songs I wanted to use that I had trouble narrowing it down to just ten songs... so this week, you get fifteen!
Paris is a place that inspires the entire world, and for good reason. This mix is my little musical love letter to Paris.
Paris, je t'aime
