Something completely random from me.
I used to make The Wife loads of compilation tapes when we were younger, although it was mostly all Techno in a blatant attempt to convert her.
So seeing at it had been years since I'd done anything like that for her, I thought I'd knock up a mix of her tunes as an extra Christmas present.
Not having used Ableton properly, I went for a maximum brownie points versus minimum effort approach.
So this is a sequenced mix with a decent amount of editing, chopping and rearranging thrown in to join the tracks up without resorting to Warping and actually mixing it.
Maybe your wife/bird/lady friend will like it too?
