מיקסטייפ אורח: Into the Mix

= מיקסטייפ חדש כל שבוע, מוסיקה משובחת, עורכים מתחלפים. ואיפה האוסף שלכם?
= אפשר להאזין לכל אחד מהמיקסטייפים כקובץ אחד ארוך בעמוד החדש באייקסט.
כתבתי כאן לפני כמה שבועות שבעונה הנוכחית של הפרוייקט הזה, אני זוכה לארח כמה ידידים ותיקים, כאלה שהיו בעבר חלק מהחיים שלי, אך הקשר איתם לא נשמר, מטבעם של קשרים. האורחת שלי השבוע, עדן, היא דוגמה טובה. מוזר לכתוב את זה, אבל אני חושב שעברו כמעט 20 שנה מאז הפעם האחרונה שראיתי אותה (הכנס כאן תלונה גנרית על זה שאנחנו זקנים). הקשר התחדש לאחרונה בזכות אחת הרשתות החברתיות, ושמחתי מאוד על שהסכימה לערוך עבורנו מיקסטייפ. מיד היא תספר לכם מה היה הדבר שחיבר אותנו אז:

I was very happy to apply myself to the task I was given by Dovi and prepare a mix-tape for his blog. Me and Dovi met as children and were joined by our intense love of music. We were both avid listeners to Ofer Nachshon's 'Hit Box' on Reshet Gimmel Radio and avid pencil-winders (and unwinders) of cassette reels. Recreating the enthusiasm involved in sharing the music that you love is certainly great fun!

It was nonetheless very difficult to select a list of songs from the huge variety of music that has accompanied me throughout the years. I vacillated, re-considered, and erased, and ended up with a selection of eleven songs. The common thread running through these songs is that that they got under my skin at some point in my life. People who know me know that I've experienced some tough times in the past decade and had more than my fair share of disappointments, and that I have not always been the calm and complacent person I am today. Each and every one of these songs expresses the essence of my experience at one point or another. Each of them contains that one verse that brought me to tears. Each and every one of them reflects a situation I was in at one time or another, one that agonized me and threatened to eat me alive. Some of them evoke people that had passed through my life in one role or another and that I shall always remember. Another evokes the wonderful person who is now my partner.

The song-writer's intentions might have been entirely different, but it was Stuart Murdoch who said: "It's the inherent power in any piece of artistic expression that it may kick off in someone else, feelings completely unimagined by the creator". The original version of this post had a few lines about each of my selections, but at some point I understood that any attempt to explain their magic simply ruins it. I shall therefore leave their interpretation as an exercise to the listener. Enjoy!
