Some heavy shit for a Sunday...or a selection of soothing sounds? You decide.
A couple of 1970s monolithic classics signposted by Julian Cope in his Japrocksampler from 2007 and providing my introduction to Flower Travellin' Band and Taj Mahal Travellers. The rest is 21st Century chillout music courtesy of Moby and Richard Norris, along with spikey prog from Steven Wilson and an Orbient excursion from Chocolate Hills aka Alex Paterson and Paul Conboy.
Hopefully, the two hours will have passed without your noticing and you won't get into trouble for not doing that job you were supposed to have done an hour and a half ago. If not, well... c'est la vie.
For your extended listening pleasure, I've revived links to a couple of previous epic-length mixes, just in case you haven't got anything better to do than listen to my self-indulgent selections...!
