Mix CD

My buddy Mike and I came up with a cool project a few weeks ago: let's make mix CD's! It's something I haven't done since high school, when our friend Amanda was the queen of mix CD's. I thought it was a cool opportunity to share what kind of music really resonates with me, and I'm glad that he really enjoyed the CD. Without further ado, here's the playlist:

1. Rjd2 - Ghostwriter
2. Royksopp - What Else Is There?
3. Bonobo - Flutter
4. Antaeus - Motherese
5. Thievery Corporation - Facing East
6. Caia - Summer Lightning
7. Moodorama - The Bushoong
8. Bjork - All Is Full Of Love (You Tube the music video - it's amazing!)
9. Dan Black - Stewing Scintillation (from the real Dan Black)
10. Yoshida Brothers - Blooming
11. The Bravery - Believe
12. Mattafix - Big City Life
13. Andy Hunter - Come On
14. Hybrid - I Choose Noise
15. Kid Cudi - Alive (Nightmare) feat. Ratatat
16. Huey Lewis & The News - Hip To Be Square (just for fun)

The mix definitely starts with slower "working music" and progresses to a more accelerated "city beats" feel. If I could only listen to 1 CD for the rest of my life, this would be all I would need. Thankfully though, I can continue to broaden my horizons when it comes to music.
