This mixtape is a collection of songs that I thoroughly enjoy when I'm in one of those mellow, contemplative and somewhat antisocial moods. Most of them are real calm, a few are somewhat upbeat, but they all contribute to the mood in some way. The songs are arranged for a swelling effect that keeps feeling, but doesn't put you to sleep.

mmmm cellos, so tastey. This track is very calm and beautiful. Actually comes at the end of the album, but works perfectly as the start to this mix. Strings have an amazing calming affect on me and cellos are at the perfect range.

Track 8 from To A Friend
Length: 00:05:24
Year: 2000
Track Description:
This is a track noone else will know, but this mix is about me - so fuck you. That being said, it is by a guy I met who was a LDS missionary. One of my buddies converted and I had a whole bunch of mormon friends anyways so I came to meet this guy. Great piano player who actually ended up in the Guiness Book of World Records for fastest playing of chords on a track on this album called Invictus (amazing song). This song starts very quiet and pretty, builds up to some intensity and eases back down to near silence at the end.

Track 7 from A New White

Year: 2004
Track Description:
The first time I heard this song was actually watching the awesome animated video. It was everything I wanted in a song at that moment, and I didn't even know it. Likewise, Subtle turned out to be everything I was looking for in a group. Both of which was suprising since I hate pretty much everything else Doseone has done. This song is a magical journey of music.

Ran across this song by accident. Saw a post by Alias on a message board and decided to download it. Completely kicked me in the ass. Amazing amazing remix by Alias. In fact, my favorite remix by Alias. Everything about this song is great. It has an energetic beat, but the music combined with the lyrics still has the mellowing affect on me. It is available for free download and I recommend everyone track it down.
