At the risk of Rafael Anton Irisarri overload—after all, we’ve already shared exclusive mixes from his Sight Below project and new Orcas pairing with Benoît Pioulard—we couldn’t help but pass on his “Valentine’s Barf Mix,” a collection that’s meant as the antithesis of the painlessly cool Spotify playlist we posted earlier today. Or as Irisarri put it on his Tumblr page:

I was Tweeting last night back and forth with the folks at Self-Titled mag, talking about depressing songs, as they were compiling a very depressing Valentine’s mix. So I thought, “hmm, maybe I should make a mix for my listeners too.” As I started to compile, with some gems from Slowdive, Scott Walker, Lee Hazzlewood, Nick Cave etc, I thought again, “well, this is rather easy for me to do.” Most of the music that I love is all about heartaches and loneliness. I deleted what I had and decided instead to throw that idea out the window. Instead, I tried to remember songs I despise or make me want to barf. After all, my hatred for mainstream America and their Hallmark holiday is greater than my good taste in music. I couldn’t remember much, so I turned to my lovely wife, who grew up in fly-over America and with her help, I compiled the worst, cheesiest possible mix in existence. So, with that in mind, here’s the “Valentine’s Barf Mix.”

Proceed with caution below, alongside a complete tracklisting/rather hilarious track-by-track commentary…
