Björk's "Cocoon" is a lovely song to begin with, especially since I've felt like crawling into one for a couple weeks now. Then a trip to the '70s, followed by a lovely trip to the '20s with Bessie Smith, with Ani DiFranco capping off the front half.
And then it goes off in a whole different direction. I haven't listened to The The in YEARS. The Lovely Eggs are great if you like loud female vocalists with really thick British (Yorkshire?) accents. The second half isn't all from the '80s -- in fact, only The The is -- but it kind of all sounds like it COULD be.
I don't think I've ever had a mix which was so evenly divided between the front and back. Enjoy. All on Spotify this week too!
