Thanks and blessings to all those artists and producers who created the music for me to play.

This tape was part of the Mau Mau submission to the 12 Days of Xmas art show at Bristol Police Station in December 2007. A load of street artists took over the old police sation and converted the prison cells into art exhibits. Legendary artist Mau Mau (www.mau-mau.co.uk) made his cell into a grow room and part of the scene included a stereo on which this ganja inspired mix was on constant rotation in the CD player.
