I just fell a little bit in love with you...

I would happily eat ugly people to this tune. BANG!

"Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it". - Salvador Dali 

After fluffing around, getting caught up in my own indecisiveness on what sort of mix to make and second guessing myself continuously in the pursuit of some level of perfection, I decided to cut the crap and just get a bunch of tunes I liked and put them into a mix with my favourite weekend of the year in mind (RSF). 

These are tunes that have inspired me in some way or stuck in my mind whilst i've been living in a remote indigenous community in NT, as far away from clubs, events and festivals that i've ever been. There are some older tunes that hold sentimental value and some brand spankin' new tunes, covering the melodic side of techno with a bunch of the usual suspects plus a few new faces. 

Going against the grain of slower BPMs, this mix has pretty melodies with a decent kick and hints of rave to suit dusty dancefloor boogying, desk rave outbursts, big fish little fish cardboard box driving sessions, kitchen twerking, gym workout shimmying and wherever else you wanna bust a move.

I hope you like what you hear.
