ROB ALVES : The Mixtape That Celebrates Itself pt.1



ROB ALVES - The Mixtape That Celebrates Itself Part 1 (2012)

 In the early 90′s, I was a teenage shoegazer. My friends used to laugh at me,
they were into grunge & britpop. Twenty years after (twenty…), muwahaha
I win, nobody listens to shitty britpop and neither f***** grunge anymore. So
here is some of my fav classical shoegaze, most of it from 88/93 era. But you
should know that, just like me, my vinyl records are not all in good shape, they
have lived their own life, they have been played in radio shows, in clubs, in
bars, in flat parties, on sundays hangover, etc. Some have even drunk the
same as me : beer, coffee, mojito’s, black russians… I love my records this
way, they’re not here to build a collection to sell one day. So I don’t care if the
sound is not perfect. I hope you won’t care either. As usual with my mixtapes,
the tracklisting will appear here in one week. Love. Rob
