The Dollet landing theme is the best Final Fantasy song ever.

I'm making a mix to get my friend into some indie stuff. See my thread on it if you'd like to help. I will post the finished product in here.

[QUOTE=br3ad_man]The Dollet landing theme is the best Final Fantasy song ever.[/QUOTE]

I like that too but I don't know the song title to get it in slsk. *frustration*

1. The Soft Machine - As Long as He Lies Perfectly Still
2. Faust - The Sad Skinhead
3. Can - I'm So Green
4. Pavement - Transport is Arranged
5. Radiohead - Knives Out
6. Blur - Sad Country Ballad Man

^Now that's a lineup.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention: I dunno if anyone else does this but the most full-proof way to make a great mix is to use tracks as they would come sequentially on their respective albums.

Ex:

1. Richard Hell and the Voidoids - Love Comes in Spurts
2. Pavement - Trigger Cut/Wounded Cut At :17
3. Harry Nilsson - Early In the Morning
4. Sam Cooke - Mean Old World
etc...

Alter formula as necessary. Guaranteed results.

...I know most of that stuff isn't really alt, but I was browsing the forums and figured I'd post anyways...btw, Insipid is a local band from my area, they are amazing, you should all check them out [url]www.insipideyes.com[/url]. Very original stuff.

Yep, that's it. Is that the top 10 favorite songs of the moment or whatever thread?

7. Eric B. and Rakim - As the Rhyme Goes On
