This is the first part of a series of chillwave, new wave, ambient, dub, jazz vocal remixes and late night chill. This all comes together as an easy listening jam of familiar but distorted laid back beats that's perfect for that late night groove or toe tappin' dinner.
The title of the mix comes from the classic new wave Visage closing song. It is preceded by a very cool version of a classic early Cure song and an almost unrecognized version of the well known Echo & The Bunnymen classic. Radiohead also provides a remixed version of a song from their OK Computer album. It is interesting to hear the modern remixed versions of classics from Nina Simone and Sarah Vaughan and there will be more scattered throughout the series.
This series of mixes is drawing from a large playlist that I put together over a period of five years or so. As usual I've broken it down into CD length mixes. The next couple of mixes are assembled and just need to be mixed as a single mp3 for posting.
