Lately - well, now and then for the past few months - I've been queuing this up on YouTube from time to time, whenever I'm in the mood for a good, loopy, old-skool track.
High art, it ain't, but it's part of an old mixtape I got from a music penpal long gone. I got it right before a FL vacation and it was on heavy rotation on the drive down. And during (it rained the entire week). I have happy memories of that vacation (turns out it was one of the last I took with my extended family before graduating college/moving away) and so the associations are really good :)
Now and then I'll snoop teh intarwebs for the MP3s of it and 2 other tracks very similar to it (MIG 31 and MIG 33), partly for sentimental reasons but also for the thrill of the chase - given the ready availability of just about ANYTHING online I'm pleasantly surprised that these are genuinely hard to find!
Sooner or later I'll probably just get them on vinyl and make digital copies, if I can find 'em cheap (these aren't, after all, some limited edition Aphex Twin or the like - Wax.fm seems excellent for this), but right now I'm too busy enjoying the hunt :P
