PASSING ALONG A SMALL MESSAGE FROM BLOG FOUNDER JIM MUTANTSOUNDS

I was just in touch with Mutant Sounds blog founder Jim for the first time in ages regarding the new Rapidshare changes and he's asked me to pass along word that there's a reason for his extended absence from Mutant, as he's undergone dramatic surgery and has been the recuperating at length from his ordeal this last year. Here's hoping this is all behind him now and that he'll be able to contribute to Mutant again at some point in the future, but until then, feel free to offer him a small shout out and wish him a speedy recovery in the comment field.

    Jim, very best wishes for a full recovery. MS has doled out so much vital medicine over the years. Hope you have all you need...

    Dear Jim.

    Been following Mutant sounds for about 5 years and found much weird/beautiful/obscure music here.

    Hope you will be free from your ordeal very soon!

    Thanks from the Netherlands.

    Ever since I discovered Mutant Sounds several years ago, it has been an essential resource for obscure jazz, psych, prog, dark-wave, minimal, etc. I hope that you know that what you have already given us is a fantastic gift in itself. Best wishes to you and your family!
