Secret Thirteen Mixtape

Justinas Mikulskis of the Lithuanian media conglomerate Secret Thirteen Journal was kind enough to make us a mix. Please enjoy in excess:

It is an intuitive and arhaic mix that mirrors half of mine surroundings at the moment (summer and autumn splice). Instant personal coldness and knowledge fused with the passionate sex, everyday sarcasm, desire to be ascetic in the rotten world, senseless information and seen fuck faces. In all it is a weird, immoral and lustful part of me pulled out of my unconscious shadows. There is no need to block negative, it accelerates progression of personality. Depressive, provocative and thoughtful music can evoke much more than non-religious eligenlightenment but deeper understanding about the existence. There are no polished sound angles. Penetrating guitars, original vocals, meaningful lyrics and improvised rhythmics should do the job with a vengeance from the emotional inertia. I believe this mixtape has enough of potential to break through the listeners tempered skin and inspire in the different ways. Inject this digital tonic drug.
