"SF local mix" (IMP - April 2007)

Pleasingly, most of the artists on this cd were completely new to me - I'd only even heard of two (the Aislers Set and Jolie Holland) before. It's a nicely constructed mix, weighted heavily towards acoustic and lo-fi indie-pop, with a twee flavour to several of the cuts - the kind of music that I enjoy but only rarely take to heart...so I've liked listening to the mix, though I probably won't return to it all that often (with the luxury, of course, of always being surrounded by more music than I have time to listen to...so it goes).
