The Fantastic Symphony Washed Out Mix


You would all tell me if my frequent posting on Washed Out was unhealthy right? well this is somewhat special since its a mix from his blog that you can download for free. Its really crispy and diverse like finding a damaged cassette mix from the basement of your favorite radio station that 25 years old and playing it.

Samiyam – “Wrap Up
Toro Y Moi – “Brubek

    There’s no visible link on his blog, do you have a direct link?

    Annoying as hell. but thanks for the link I guess.

  6. Drew says:

    I agree with Niko. This mix was terrible. Thanks for the link, though.

  7. Jakub says:

    I did a short mix last week and will post it tomorrow and hopefully you’ll like that

  8. Benjamin says:

    Yeah, I wasn’t a fan. Saw Washed Out with Small Black Friday and loved the show, though.

    I guess a few people’s parachutes aren’t always open…
    Really? Thanks but no thanks…why even leave a comment.

    thanks Jakub.

    @d||

    “why even leave a comment” ? Are you suggesting that comments should just serve for people to be a ton of yes-men supporting everything posted?

    Man-up and express some opinion on the content in question. Nobody *isn’t* thanking Jakub for offering this.

  11. Spencer says:

    it starts off really nicely but i think he kind of lost it with the next few tracks, maybe its just my mood, and not that theyre bad tracks, but i just think its slightly too all over the place. just some constructive criticism

  12. Doug says:

    It’s alright. It would seem some aspects of it need refinement, especially in the “beat” area, sometimes it can get annoying.

  13. I like this except the piano piece at the end. I like being thrown around a bit with a mix, yet this still holds together with the gritty, compressed sound.

  14. Sean says:

    Obscure for the sake of being obscure

  15. Neil says:

    I’m slightly bewildered at the lack of lovin’ for this! The “lack of refinement” helps make it for me.
    Thanks for the link.

    Neil –

    I am too, I think the second track might scare some people off but the Arch M and Koushik tracks floor me everytime

  17. Spencer says:

    i wouldnt say ‘scare’, theres really no music that scares me, its more that the first track brings you in so softly and makes you want more for at least a few more minutes. either way i put it on my ipod.

    and ya ‘floor’ is the right word to describe arch m and koushik hah
