This looks pretty awesome. The Sparks song is gold.

I had the pleasure of receiving it. You're right, it is an awesome mix, and I love that Sparks song.

Well then if you dont have it, you should pick up Kimono My House, which I think is the greatest dancepop album there is. It's very upbeat, almost in an over-the-top way, and the melodies are fantastic. You'd probably like it after one minute. Sparks are just one giant smirk on the face of music.

Thanks dudes. I had a great time making the mix, so I'm glad you enjoyed it. I thought the Sparks song should have been a song-of-the-year contender, at least in the more "hip" circles.

I'll also second the recommendation for more Sparks. At their best they were like a summit between Queen and the Beatles. The first two tracks off Kimono My House are astounding.

I'd have to say it's the first ten ;)
