Finn Johannsen – Music From The Crisis Detention Center 1

Posted: February 11th, 2006 | Author: | Filed under: Mixes | Tags: , , | No Comments »

Michael, a music enthusiast I got to know on the message board, had a now defunct blog called Silence is a Rhythm too and asked me if I could provide a mix with something I did not usually publish. So I came up with the idea to do three mixes that contain sad or melancholic songs. The mixes are structured so that they start out really depressing than get a bit less depressing, and end in something vaguely conciliatory. Jan Rikus Hillmann, the art director of magazine, told me they were world class, which caught me so off guard that I still remember it.
