Loveless influenced so much, and the deeper in the mix we get, the more the possibilities exponentially expand. So I have another huge list of almosts. With “shoegaze” I’m a sucker for the wash, the sense of being overpowered by, or diving into, the sound. There’s a lot of that going on in this mix and I’m going to push it along with a Yo La Tengo track from 2006s I Am Not Afraid of You and I Will Beat Your Ass. They just keep going and going, making one great album after the other.
I also thought it would be nice to have a big noisy epic track right in the middle of the mix: here’s “The Story of Yo La Tango”.
