This will probably be my  last mix as DJ Rodney Stuckey for a few reasons. One, the guy is a starter on a playoffs team right now so it's a little less fun to use his name. Two, I like being able to name these mixes and put different artwork on each of them. Lastly, I was forced to use the longform mixes as a way to make them downloadable to you. I don't really have that problem anymore and while I still like putting these songs together as one long track, I understand that not everyone is going to enjoy every song the way I do. My tastes are varied, as I'd imagine are yours. And sometimes you just wanna listen to a goddamn Diamond Rugs song without having for scan through an hour of other stuff. I get it.

So yeah.

As always, I had all this ready to go about 7 weeks ago and I actually had the entire mix ready to go (completely chaptered by clips from a companion record to Disney's The Black Hole, which remains a weirdly compelling sci-fi movie 35 years later or whatever. If you've never seen it, check it out! I'm pretty sure I wrote about it on this site in another life.
