connecting friends through mix tapes
We used to trade mixes with a dear friend in a series called “Pure Torture.” Think schlock jock radio mixed with Dr. Demento but with VERY gay queer sensibilities. From our end there were 23+ mixes over a 10 year period. I recently came across the one and only Christmas themed one. As usual it mixes some very good and some fucking terrible tracks together. Enjoy!
