Less a mixtape than a mix cloud—it's almost 300 songs, each of which provides a reason to be cheerful about the intelligence & loveliness of British music & culture.

I love these recordings. In particular seek these out:
• Kate Tempest: “Europe Is Lost”
• Psychic TV: “Just Drifting”
• Lloyd Cole: “Are You Ready To Be Heartbroken”
• Althea & Donna: “Uptown Top Ranking”
• Ivor Cutler: “Women Of The World”
• Disco Inferno: “Love Stepping Out”
• Ben Watt with Robert Wyatt: “A Girl In Winter”
• Family Fodder “Savoir Faire”
• The Fall: “How I Wrote Elastic Man”
