If you were asked to provide the music for an aftershow party, which involves nothing more than people chatting in a bar after an entertaining awards ceremony, what would you pick?
It's background music, and will on ipod, so it doesn't mean I'll be playing DJ, which is a relief. So nothing to loud, no jarring pop. I'm thinking mellow, Sixties, groovy instrumentals, the odd not too obvious Eighties curveball and lots of bossa nova. So far I've included the following (in no particular order). Does this look interesting to you? Any other suggestions?
