Hooray indeed...I've come pretty close to throwing in the towel on these mixes more than once in recent times - although I enjoy the finished compilations, my "lazy perfectionism" makes the process a bit of a slog sometimes. 0_o

Anyway, the re-upped November and December mixes are here:

I've fallen behind with a few of yours too, if you get a chance to re-up your last 2 (I think), that'd be cool. I might even manage to comment on them. :P

Yeah, there is quite a Depeche Mode vibe to this mix...I didn't realise so much until I was finishing it off, but as you say they do cast a long shadow.
One of my favourite Nitzer Ebb tracks too, but one that I hadn't actually heard in years and had basically forgotten existed. Love when that happens.
And yeah, that's Legend's "DM track", but I love how it still sounds totally "like Legend". "Fearless" is still probably my favourite album of the last few years, I'm not remotely sick of it yet.

The And One album, "S.T.O.P.", was a pretty solid addition to their catalogue, and coincidentally features some cool collaborations with Douglas McCarthy (one of which may well be on the next mix), and Eskil from Covenant.
Apparently they've a new one in the pipeline too, with at least one track featuring Welle:Erdball (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwDWKitdO0c). An interesting combination.

I quite like the Pittersplatter and Dead Hand Projekt albums, though I think the tracks I picked are the stand-outs from each - worth a listen, but perhaps a limited shelf life.

Yay for new mixes, looking forward to catching up again. :)
