Thought I had commented before, but in case I haven't... Congrats on Vol 100!

Thanks for the comments everyone, never thought when I started these I'd reach volume 100! Shout-out also to zipper, the Spaghetti Tree mixes started originally on mixcloud only, but he asked if I could make them downloadable (with tracks separated) on my blog.
Volume 101 will also be a "special", where I'll be collaborating with Man Erg picking the tracks. It should be quite interesting compiling, and hopefully an enjoyable listen for everyone. Cheers!

That sure was long ago and far away SB. It's been a great journey with many new discoveries along the way. I must admit I'd forgotten my request to make them downloadable, but I'm glad I did. Volume 100 is indeed a milestone, but also a stepping stone, to the volumes to follow. Many thanks SB (and Man Erg) for this, and all the other great comps. and collections you've beamed our way. And speaking of the latest Spaghetti Tree, who could resist a comp that features Stereolab, The Downliners Sect Swedish recordings & Dorothy Ashby. A match made in heaven. Cheers!
