The Chameleons

I made a Chameleons mix for friend who wasn't familiar with their music. Found the artwork I designed for it tonight by chance and I have to admit I think they look pretty sharp! I'm posting the designs for whomever wants to use them and make their own mix (if you already have the songs, and you should, right??).
On a similar note, I should make one for The Sound and put it up because I think they're sorely overlooked and just as good as The Chameleons.

The Chameleons - Splitting In Two

Fucking brilliant cover of an Alternative TV song. When I saw them play this in 2001 Mark jumped off the stage and sang surrounded by the audience and I gave him a hug resulting in my being covered in his sweat. Doubt I'll ever see a more transcendent show as that one.

mix

here's a mix i made last nite. no particular theme or anything thoughtful. just some old and new favorites that i thought would go well together and maybe someone could make a new discovery from it.
