Well put, Ms. Talk

This is a new mix of tunes I’ve just compiled. Some new, some old. Some happy, some sad. All great tunes!
I use OpenTape to compile these mixes. It’s basically a rip of the Muxpate interface. Don’t forget to check my music site for a bunch of other mixes.

I wonder is there is anything like this in the 09. If not, it might be an idea to give it a go… I guess the “pot luck” dinner is a start.
