Hold Music Volume 6

After "Hold Music Volume 5" I was on a roll and had a whole lot more music to share.  And I do mean a LOT OF MUSIC.  This is like two and a half hours of music. 

I also started playing around more with Garageband at this time and I wanted to share my experiments.  This mix starts off with a loop that I made one evening, just to teach myself how to actually do something like that.  Later in the mix I played around with a track by 101 Strings to learn more about Garageband.  In the end I feel like made something kind of cool.

Another thing that was happening last summer was that I spent the month of June digitizing all the 78s in my collection.  I then spent the next 6 months cleaning up, and labeling all the tracks.  From that project I got really into Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys because I had a bunch of his records that I only first listened to last year.  So there is a Bob Wills track on here.  

There is also a track from a Godzilla film, because last summer I bought the Criterion collection of Godzilla films and my wife and I were watching all the films in order.  That was a fun journey and so "Go! Go! Godzilla" made it onto the mix.  

There is a track from Judy Garland because I watched the movie "Judy" around this time and so she was on my mind.  

There is a track from Coriky which at the time was a record I had just gotten in the mail.  I ordered it earlier in the summer and it took a month or two to arrive.

Tracks from "True Romance" are at the beginning and end of the mix because I rewatched that film last summer and was revisiting Hans Zimmer's score.


For some reason I put the non remix version of "Favourite Shirts" by Haircut 100 after putting the remix on a previous mix.  I honestly can't remember if I did that consciously of whether that was a case of just forgetting.  It is worth noting that when I was initially making these mixes I was releasing them as one track and I wasn't publishing any sort of track listings.  So there are times where I forgot that I had used a track.  So there are tracks that show up on multiple mixes.  Besides the Haircut 100 track, the Le Matos track shows up later.  The Tiny Deaths track was used on Volume 4.  And the Tales from the Loop track was on the first version of Volume 9, but by that time I realized I needed to track what was on the mixes better and I replaced it and so it isn't on the final version.  It was also at that point where I thought I could break up the tracks, make track listings and post this on this blog.  I then spent a couple weekends prepping this mixes to share and so here we are.

Enjoy
