Something different from D.K. who records virtual landscapes for Antinote, while moonlighting as L.I.E.S. artist 45 ACP. With ideas that never walk a straight line, he uses the entirety of his mix to pay tribute to New York musician Tommy Mandel. A former keyboardist for Bryan Adams, Dire Straits and The Clash, Mandel sparked legend with his 1981 solo EP of cosmic synth-pop before a series of tapes and CDs. Soon to be reissued by Invisible City Editions, some of the best Mandel material is here, hand selected and sequenced by D.K.
