Last night my ancient mechanical doorbell, which is not connected to the button at the door and does not have any power and has not made a sound for eight years, rang out for 30 seconds and then gave creepy whimpers for the next half hour. Like acid eating through the patina of Christmas cosiness and cheer, it led me away from the elegant avenues of my last two mixes towards angst-ridden alleyways. So here is a mix for exploring your claustrophobic corners of self-doubt. Like all good paranoia, it peaks early and has a long, long finish.
The Stalker – Green Velvet
Pruitt Igoe (Fall) – Kangding Ray
Look Who's Stalking – Steve Bug
Coma – Spektre
Can't Feel Anything – Jay Haze
Konrad Gets Lost On The Way To Dc10 (Konrad Black Remix) – Troy Pierce
Dazed – Maya Jane Coles
Nordlicht – Douglas Greed
Vibrant Member – Lee Curtiss
Monochrome – Maya Jane Coles ft. Cardamis
Self Conscience – Piranhahead
Fabrick – Maetrik & Maceo Plex
Even If It's Alone (Black Acid) – Troy Pierce
Even If It's Alone (Black Acid) (Louderbach Remix) – Troy Pierce
Okx – Plastikman
I have just read that a resident of the Pruitt-Igoe housing complex, now demolished, commented that it was "impossible to feel, to tell, resident from intruder" - that's exactly the kind of mood I was trying to create here.
