Skylord99: Naked Light – a mix of rock, alt rock and prog rock for your weekend

As mentioned in my post yesterday – the long hot summer we’ve been having has limited my computer time and so I haven’t been putting mixes together or posting very much.  However, I was enjoying my Naked Light mix last night and thought it was about time I shared something.  I particularly like this mix as it draws down music from rock, alt rock and progressive rock genres and then blends them together.  As with some of my mixes, I try to include some homegrown Kiwi music and so on this mix I’ve added a local Auckland band called Villainy with a track titled “Paradise Lost”.  I finished with a cover of Sounds of Silence by Phyllotaxis.  I know this is a much covered track but they are a favorite band of mine and I particularly like their rendition of this classic. 

Feedback always welcome….
