sweet as the scratch

13 april 2015 post-punk, industrial,
synth pop, new wave

Another GREAT add to the site thrown our way by Kirin. This two hour dj mix selects post-punk, industrial, synth pop, and new wave tracks from the late 70s, 80s, and early 90s. I'm not familiar enough with this sound to give the playlist a proper summary, so I'll let the music speak for itself--expect it to do so in an abrasive yet disinterested way.
