In true Slicing Up Eyeballs fashion, we’re quickly running out of room on the calendar to be able to legitimately call this the April installment of the Auto Reverse mixtape — but we have, in fact, delivered, if just a few days under the wire. Thank you for your patience.
This month’s mix — two 45-minute slabs of music that you can stream via Mixcloud, or download, at least for a limited time, courtesy of the link included below — rounds up some tracks both popular and rare from the likes of New Order, The Cure, The Hindu Love Gods, Concrete Blonde, World Party, Easterhouse, King Missile, The Smiths, Let’s Active, Voice of the Beehive and more.
Check it all out below — and enjoy.

Some great choices. A few new names new to me here… Easterhouse, Concrete Blonde, King Missile, Let’s Active…
I’ve never understood how anyone can stand that Gang of Four song.
Let’s Active! Excellent choice. (Mitch Easter was REM producer as well, kids!)
So glad to see these mix tapes back……Great stuff!
Suggestion: With the download, any chance of a track listing being included!?
Its great listening, but when that track comes up I want to know who and what it is!
Keep up the fantastic work Cheers (Australia)
