Music has a funny way of pulling at your heart, poking and prodding at the lumpy bumpy memory section in your grey matter.
All the songs this week are a bit rockin, while still strangely mellow. Mostly made up of obscure-ish and dark 80s and 90s, it's night-driving music of the highest order. Imagine glinting evening sun as you drive along the Jersey Turnpike, hand out the window catching the breeze. You're sticky, and your lips are salty. By the time you get to the Manhattan Bridge heading into Brooklyn it's dark and the city is glinting, and the Twin Towers are still there because it's 1999.
There's a long & lengthly description of exactly what I'm trying to talk about on the main site here: http://loveactionluvs.blogspot.com but you're probably here to listen to the music not read a rambling blog. So here's your mixtape:
