It's been a while since I posted a mixtape, so last sunday
after returning from Paris I immediately started selecting
tracks. I've been playing fast disco lately so I had to
compensate with this rather adventurous mid-tempo mix
of laid back songs from 100 to 110 bpm with basically no
genre rules: set your time machine to a random range
between 1978 and 1990 and you'll get stuff going from
disco-funk to proto-balearic, from italo-boogie to very
old school rap.
The track list has been made somewhat obscure: all that
is left of artist names and track titles are the initials and
whoever guesses the tracks will be awarded with a 12"
vynil or cd that I will gladly ship to any address on planet
earth at my expense. You don't even have to guess them
all: the 2 brave contestants that will get the most will win.
If you have your own blog and would like to post the mix
there you are very welcome to do so. Just make sure that
answers are posted as a comment to this blog or sent to
me in a private message.

Contest has ended!! Bobby wins for having guessed 4 tracks.
He will be awarded with my new 12" surprise (a record) on IDIB
Congratulations to all contestants for unveiling 13 out of 19 songs.
So long... until the next mysterious mix.

So cool! I just got to see the new remake of V (it's surprisingly fun, or maybe that's just nostalgia talking...)
Thanks for the mix, and I look forward to picking up your new record when it comes out.
