In the age of total one-click availability I take perverse pleasure in some things remaining &#8220;under the counter&#8221;. It was never my intention to have this mix available for download and I have stuck to this despite several people offering to host it. (However some of these tunes were played on the first two episodes of RSI Radio.)<\/p>\n<p>I shall relent slightly be letting you have the tracklist &#8211; that way you can use it as a guide to checking out the tunes and maybe buy them yourself:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best of 2006 mix<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.
