Edit: Yeah, that didn't work as well as it did in my head. Plus my mixing skills are primitive, so that didn't help. I tried.
Yeah, i stuck 'em together last night...LBT->P4E->IABS... i had to cut the end of 11 Hundred Hz (the distorted part) to get it under 80 minutes.
"Witness" merged with "Food A Ready" doesn't sound great because the keys are different. But crossfading them helped make it less jarring. The transition from "Play Pig" into "Peach Tree" sounds cool, though.

i plan to force this on some friends as an introduction to the experimental side of UW.

Interesting since these are rr03, 04 and 05...wonder if they're supposed to be mixed as such (from loud to soft in style)? I also noted when making some artwork for my compilation that the coverart provided with the coded text goes from black (LBT) to dark grey (P4E) to grey (IABS). Neat from a graphic standpoint (i wonder if misterons mix will be light grey? )
