If you'd like a copy, just e-mail either
rafaela or myself with the pertinent info. If you ask reeeeeaallllyyyy nicely, we might—just might, mind you— be persuaded to do a custom mix for you. Be warned, though, that we've been known to wig out quantity-wise in the past (just ask my friend Betsy, who received an eight-disc manifesto), which we may or may not inflict upon you.
To those who receive our handiwork: Enjoy!
