The story behind my URL goes as follows:
Harry Nilsson begins his song Cuddly Toy, (better known by the Monkees cover), with the phrase "OK, Mister Mix". Aimee Mann uses the same audio clip at the beginning of her cover of Nilsson's song One.

And the blog title refers to the title track to Feeder's fourth album.

I feel the need to give some background on Feeder, because I've actually never met anyone who knows who they are.

Feeder is an alternative rock band from Wales. They've released eight studio albums since they formed in 1991. They're often compared to The Pixies and Talk Talk. Their early stuff has a really grungy sound that's lost on their later albums. If you want to get into them, I suggest starting with their debut album, Polythene (1997). Best tracks are Cement and High, but it's all good.

Here's the tracklisting:

  1. "Polythene Girl" – 3:29
  2. "My Perfect Day" – 4:25
  3. "Cement" – 3:18
  4. "Crash" – 4:09
  5. "Radiation" – 4:39
  6. "Suffocate" – 3:53
  7. "Descend" – 5:20
  8. "Stereo World" – 3:28
  9. "Tangerine"– 3:55
  10. "Waterfall" – 3:10
  11. "Forgive" – 4:41
  12. "20th Century Trip" – 1:56

Enjoy!
