Resistance Is Futile, the 13th full-length studio release for Manic Street Preachers hit the streets this April.

Q Mag dedicated 12 pages Manics. The article featured a small piece about Richey Edwards´s DIY cassettes, compiled during his years with Nicky Wire at Swansea University (´97-´89).

The mix below is made up by songs mentioned in the article on two specific mixtapes, named:

• CRISIS introducing the blue beats

A compendium of punk/post-punk and classic ´60s

• ROCK ´N´ROLL is here to stay

Curates from punk, glam-metal, more post-punk and som acknowledged classisc, some unapologetically uncool.
