My Magnus Opus of Mixsets.
There is a LONG story behind this mix, but suffice to say if I told you I tried to put this together back in 1998 using a 4-track mixer on ferric tape, with a guitar pedal hooked up to my decks to manually add the filters and sweeps, you'll understand there's some heritage behind it. Several months later I bought a minidisc player and suddenly I had digital quality sound. I became quite dapper in chopping and splicing whole segments, as well as adding layers to tracks like never before. The mix therefore acquired a name – 'Digital Tapestry' – and it's been a monkey on my back ever since.
Ever the perfectionist, I never quite got round to finishing it. Years went by and I acquired hardware, software, plugins and sequencers, but life got in the way and I chose to forget about it. The dust gathered (not that it does on digital recordings obviously), and only in the light of the current fad in retro mixes did I think finally think stuff it and put the pieces together.
