XXXIV. Okie Dokie, It’s the Orb on My Podcast
A mix of samplings from the Orb’s discography. Trippy, ambient and spacy.

XXXIII. Mellow Electro, Part II
The more sensitive, light-hearted side of electro. Up next: Orb mix, and Kraftwerk remixed with Michael Jackson (no, I’m not kidding you.)
29Dec07 XXXII. Dirty, Rough and Fast
XXXII. Dirty, Rough and Fast

XVIII. Remix Party, Part II
Challenge: tell me what the track is that runs from 48:20 to 51:30 is (it’s been rather heavily remixed, but is from a rather popular artist / album).
