Over the past few months, we've been getting in touch with bands, celebrities and more to ask them to create eight-song-long mixtapes for YOU. So crack out your Walkman and enjoy...
The bizarrely named Pinkunoizu hail from Copenhagen and Berlin, and claim to make 'cocktail music' and music that "sounds like Star Wars." Their eclectic sound shows a mix of influences and lots of experimentation, perhaps stemming from the culture of the cities they are based in. Let's see what they think we should listen to!
Elvis Presley - Crawfish
Cause the
king sings about fish, fresh and ready to be cooked.
Scott Walker - Next
Track 2
is a good time to get serious, and when Scott Walker sings Jacques Brel songs
it´s quite serious.
Caetano Veloso - Asa, Asa
A sublime
sorbet.
Flower Travellin' Band - Satori
Part II
Because
there is no up or down.
The Books - A Cold Freezin' Night
Great
lyrics. Sometimes I wish I was a kid.
Laurie Anderson - O Superman
(For Massenet)
Every
mixtape must have a masterpiece.
OM - At Giza
The first
thing that hit me hearing this song was the beautiful dance between the lines
of the bass and the hymns of the voice. Secondly, I was taken fully by surprise
when I realized that this band only consists of two people!
Robert Wyatt - Alifib
Cause
it´s like green tea for the heart, after the long journey through the depths
with OM. One of the most magnificent love songs I know. At least, it's a love
song for me.
