Turnpike Twilight Mixtape


A collection of arpeggiating night drive grooves.
01 Mort Garson And The Blobs - Son of Blob
The first song I ever heard on The Freak Zone on a very early wednesday morn tripping with Paul. A wonderful introduction to the only radioshow I listen to every week.
02 George Watts - Electric Man
More weirdo classic electro, this one from 81'. Thanks to No.1 in Belgium for this.
03 Thieves Like Us - Fass

B-side to "Drugs In My Body".
04 Truffle Club - Gone Blue
The Arpeggiating sweetness continues this time from this year and from a scot. The eathreal vocals flow over the bouncing keys locking you into its hypnotic waves.
05 Greg Vandike - Clone
Synth-pop gem from 79' with pretty much the same pulsating synth that 'Gone Blue' has. Miles better than any thing Numan ever did.
06 Andrew Weatherall - Feathers

One of the "Two Lone Swordsman" rocks it out on his first release under his own name.
07 Joachim Witt - Ich Bin Der Deutsche Neger
Witt plays it funky on this one, taken from his second album "Edelweiss" from 82'. He's the best thing to come out of the german new wave scene that i've heard anyways. Rad album, righteous track.
09 Tom Tom Club - Lorelei
My favourite Tom Tom Club song, this is trance music.
10 Jah Division - Heart And Soul (Dub)
The groove gets dubbed up now with kid millions side project Jah Division. The best dub joy divsion band ever.
11 Holy Fuck - Lovely Allen (No Age Remix)

The mood gets even murkier with this wonderfull remix from No Age. Maybe I should check them out.
12 The B-52's - Dirty Back Road

13 David Holmes - I Heard Wonders
Holmes is krautrocking it out with this one, the first track of his latest album.
14 M83 - Kim & Jessie
Yeah, yeah is sounds alot like that Nick Kershaw song but 80s pop has its charms.
15 Laura Branigan - Self Control

Wonderful night time cycling tune and the video is sweet and dark to.
16 Decadance - On And On (Dub)
One of my favouite songs ever and a big thanks to 20 j.f.g. for the heads up.
17 Sissy - Queen Of Discoteque 1984
More Italian disco wonderfulness, thanks to blow up doll for this one.
18 Cody ChesnuTT - With Me in Mind (feat. Sonja Marie)
If the bloods not up yet, it will be after this sexed up ditty.

Fucking wonderful mix. It's been getting me through days of horrid cleaning and cleansing of my room.
That Gary Vandike song is such a gem.
