Back with HC number 13. The unlucky one? Well, I hope not. Just as well I'm not superstitious, isn't it?

That said, there's definitely a thread here that I can't explain in a sentence or two. Which is why it's a mix, and not an essay. Feel free to try and explain it, it would help me out...!

Everything's had a bit of a snip, naturally, however the ones titled as edits differ more significantly from the originals in terms of arrangement... I may make them available individually for your own mixing usage - if you want any one in particular let me know :)

01 Flux - The Value Of Nothing (Kleptones 'I See What You Did There' Edit)
02 African Head Charge - Unplanned
03 Wally Badarou - Mambo
04 Brian Eno - Ali Click (Rural 'Doo Gap' Mix - Kleptones 'Brianless' Edit)
05 Thompson Twins - Nurse Shark
06 The The - Soul Mining (Kleptones 'Lost Johnson' Edit)

Thanks to Grant Martin for the CD source of "Soul Mining" (My vinyl's past it sadly...) and Apiento for the idea on "Nearly Africa". Coincidentally, his version has just been reposted here: http://testpressing.org/2012/02/xtc-nearly-africa-apiento-cut/

Hope the listening is as much fun as the making was.
