Just a quick mix tonight as I was stranded at home.  Quick, because I was interrupted by a 'work' call.  It's too bad I was interrupted because the mix was going quite well.  Dark at times, but not scary despite the title.  The tracks are from my most recent record purchase.  One track (guess which one) is not like the others.  I stuck a digital track in there using my new xwax setup.  I'm really liking xwax.  It's quite responsive and error free so far.  Enjoy the mix.

Translated, this mix is the "Pants".  Starting with a bit of noise and straight beats (from the 90's), transitioning to dubtech and then moving right along to some 'feel good' grooves, we'll barely make it above 120 BPM. And if the "Pants" doesn't get you, well how about "More Cowbell"?  I've compiled the tracklisting here from a majority of 2009 releases, but still managed to sneak in a few of my old favorites.  If taking my sweet time picking all these tracks wasn't enough, I also employed some new apps in order to get the mix cut-up and mastered for the site.  Click the read link for the tracklisting.

A special thanks to Aditya from Institute Teknologi Bandung for his patience.  Without his correspondence, I probably couldn't have created such a comprehensive how to for installing Washtub.  With Aditya being in Indonesia and me being in the US, it sometimes took 12 hours for us to read each other's responses.  What follows here is the meat from our conversation and the main process for getting Washtub installed on Ubuntu.
