fact mixology
is FACT the greatest mag/site of the moment? their podcasts alone make me say a big phat yes. first up is seattle’s the sight below, who provides a lovely shoegazy mix (note the mbv t-shirt) that starts off with the perenially underrated slowdive. sure, there are a few odd choices along the way (iggy’s “nightclubbing?” really?) but any session that ends with clan of xymox is a winner in my book.
then there are the other goodies - mixes courtesy of berlin’s techno auteur marcel dettmann and dub occultists demdike stare. and i’ve just seen that the latest mix is from ariel pink’s haunted graffiti. go on, take me i’m yours (apologies to David Gedge)…

Ever since you mentioned Slowdive, I’ve been pining for my missing copy of Souvlaki. I got a fix today by “listening” to “Alison” on YouTube. Such a cool song.

Never mind—I’m now in possession of their three studio albums. I shall share in the bounty!
