A style olio. Variety is the spice of life, I've heard. This journey is cohesive enough to bring much joy on a day like this. Starting with some exotica that everyone should recognize, then touring the middle east and back through Europe before hitting a beatnik inspired toon from a crooner. Transitioning into my favorite Sugarcubes song, enhanced by the Reid brothers to great effect. Then alternative rock country with a great take on My Bloody Valentine, followed by some interesting and appealing electronica and remixes. Then Tori doing a classic 80's tune in her inimitable style, and ending with some of the Velvets doing a more country styled version and another of those great Bjork covers by a fellow Icelander. Lots to digest and all worth the price of admission.
