Les Chakachas	"Love is like a Violin" (track 4) (Listen: Pop-up)	Arriba!	A great, phat sound. Feels like it's the slow song at the record hop.

Set 2: from warped & uneasy to acid funk-hop. (Listen to this set: Pop-up)
Simon Wickham-Smith	"Ave Regina Celorum (2000) part II" (track 4) (Listen: Pop-up)	Extreme Bukake	Like a piece of Christian liturgical music that's more like occasionally distorted waves of dark, warped and swirly experimental acid.
Coil	"Something" (track 1) (begun at -4:12) (Listen: Pop-up)	Musick to Play In The Dark 2	Similar to the above piece, except we hear the word "something" repeated over an acidy background.

Remora	"Hangin' Tough" (track 4) (Listen: Pop-up) ""Hangin' Tough" (track 4)" by "Remora"	Teen Feeding Frenzy (comp.)	Reverberant, drugged-out and dreamy. Somewhat warped, actually. It's also a cover of The New Kids On The Block.
Spacemen 3	"Sometimes" (track 9) (ended at -0:09) (Listen: Pop-up)	Recurring	Ephemeral, floating, highly sentimental. It's like a melancholic ballad for a lonely western.	***
