As always with these kind of list/mixes you could make a mix that last for years and of course in different genres. So to fit the hard task we had to cut it in to ten years skip and think about what tracks that has had an impact on us both, from when we where children following the yellow brick road to this day (almost).
Whit no further adu here is the Dirtytwo selected tracks from the age of zero to thirtyisch….
