I just can’t leave this mix alone. It’s my favorite of the concept mixes, so seem to always find things I don’t like about it to fix. This time it’s because I rediscovered a favorite album of mine — Pulsars’ one and only full-length collection of music. On the same label as Garbage, Pulsars were supposed to be this band that brought back the electronic fun of the 80’s back to the airwaves, but the label went under and the new owners decided not to pick them up. All this is standard fare in the music industry, of course, but it’s also sad. The debut album was really good.

I found it again and realized that there were several songs not in my iTunes library including “My Pet Robot” which is now included in v1.6 of the mix. It does a great job of flow between ELO and They Might Be Giants. The other good news is that Pulsars is finally going to start recording again after working for a decade producing other bands like OK Go. If I may… SQUEAL!

Listening to: “I’m Shakin’” by Rooney

UPDATE: Yeah, I just tweaked it again. I wasn’t happy with the sound effect of the UFO’s door opening before “Mr. Roboto” kicks in, so that’s been changed.
