Well, I haven't been on here in a very long time, for which I apologize, There has been too many complicated reasons to mention. But I want to echo the sentiments of those that have given a huge "thank you" for maintaining and running this site.

I know I speak for many when I say I will miss all the wonderful mixes posted here each week and all the wit, candor, insight and sheer good company that comes with those from my fellow mixers.

You have been the wisest, warmest online community imaginable and I thank you for giving me the richest musical education of my life  - it's been a privilege and a joy to be a part of zen.

As I look back, this site has become a weekend staple for me and I really don't know what I'll do without it.

I've discovered new music, new ways of listening to it and met new people.

So here we are and as you know when you can't, or won't, say the words yourself, a song can do the talking for you.

so I now hold my lighter aloft and I sing these songs to you - wishing you all the best and I'll see you on the other side (of the record).

Goodbye, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu Adieu to yieu and yieu and yieu and yieu

Enormous thumb up in the air. So many highlights here.

And it's been a privilege having you as part of the community.

Arrivederci, WG.  Hope to see you at the next campsite.

Clever use of that Sound of Music closer, and that Neil Young track makes me feel nostalgic.

This mix pulls a few heart strings..  I'll miss the moral support I've received here at ZeRO, much of which came from a few mixers that I consider friends, including yourself.  I probably didn't express my appreciation enough.  I didn't thank the creators/maintainers of the site enough either and for that I am sorry.  For one who utilized it as much as I did, I shouldn't have taken it so much for granted.  Peace brother and keep on truckin'...

Lovely.  I don't get to spend nearly as much time on this site as I'd like, but maybe that's a bit of a blessing.  When it finally gets archived, at least I'll still have lots of cool mixes to explore.

Very nice sentiments, many of which I echo. Congrats on a great mix of the week!

Very nice send off. Sad to see it coming to an end.

.....and I've got a lump in my throat; especially after that perfect final track

parting is such sweet sorrow eh! I'm trying not to dwell upon the demise of the site, find it too upsetting. Family life kind of prevented me from spending more time round these parts but I'm proud to have been a part of it all. The kindness and support I've received from folks has been truly humbling and I'll certainly miss everyone. Who knows what lies round the corner though? Musically speaking what a fabulous send off.
