"Tumor n´ Crutches"

By Martin Erlandsson

Date: 050122

Despite Martins first mixes lacks proper mixing techniques they make no compromises as they use a beat driven meld of underground sounds.
It contains a wide range of musical gengres, starting of with one of Martins favourite Four Tet tracks titled "My Angel rocks back and forth". The mix ends with a bang in form of an epic Moby track calling out for hope.

"Looking for Heights"

By Martin Erlandsson

Date: 050602

Even if the English translation of the title makes little to no sense, Martin continues his tradition of making beautiful swift changes between musical genres while still maintaing the core feeling of the mixtapes. This one features references to logic and mathematical problems. A result most certainly coming from Martins search for an undefinable meaning of truth. It is the first and only mixtape that closes with a love song, UNKLEs "What are you to me?".

"Hitler is dead"

By Martin Erlandsson

Date: Unknown

"Hitler is dead" is filled with uptempo, bright, sunny music featuring The Avalanches and The Beach boys. A clear departure from his former work and showcases Martins love for trippy, sampled, jazz-oriented big beats with hints of electronica. Simply put, a straight up party mix.

"Requiem"

By Martin Erlandsson & Mojib (Staffan Ulmert)

Date: 2007

Below is Martins own description.

The Requiem mix is produced by Martin Erlandsson and Staffan Ulmert.

It consists of everything from dusty drums and jazz to experimental electronic notes.
All taken from both Martin and Staffans vinyl, CD and movie collection.
Mashed into the mix are self produced songs, two of them written under Staffans synonym Mojib.
We hope you enjoy this mix and take the time to send us, both the positive and negative, feedback and comments.

To really understand and appreciate harmony and happiness in life it is necessary that you've also experienced disharmony and met misfortune, or at least seen misfortune closely enough to really understand that it exists.

At the end of January I received news that the skeletal cancer I had been treated for a year earlier, now had spread throughout my skeleton, that there was no known cure and that it was so far gone that both radiation and operation were out ruled. Since then I've undergone severe treatment using chemotherapy that weakens my body at a tremendous rate.

During this time period contrasts were prominent in my life.
Overwhelming panic was followed by immense calm, loneliness was followed by feelings of presence and love in the company of friends and relatives.

This is what Staffan and I tried working with in our music - letting the listener experience disharmony, thus enhancing the inherent beauty of the strings and harmonies.
Requiem may seem a pretentious title, but while we were working with the mix I thought I only had a couple or months left to live.
He who lives shall see how right I was...
