This mix builds off the second track from Rampen (apm: alien pop music), "Ist Ist." This track was actually the one that got the series started as I noted while re-listening to Tago Mago that "Oh Yeah" reminded me of "Ist Ist." A few days later, I had a similar feeling with Kim Gordon's "I'm a Man," and after that I started being more systematic/committed to noting down when a song reminded me of a track off Rampen (apm: alien pop music).

As with the first mix, I'm hesitant to make explicit the connections that drew these songs together for me, though I suspect some amount of red string is fairly obvious with the track titles of "Isis" and "Was Ist Ist"... Though re-listening to the mix as I finalized the order of tracks, I was much more struck by the sonic connections than the scattered but more explicit connections of titles and lyrics.
