Well my metal mix didn't seem to go over too well so here's a more diverse mix.

It's basically all the songs I've become addicted to since I have come back to school. My friends listen to alot of emo so finding indie as common ground isn't hard. I've also had a sweet tooth for good rap for the last 3-4 months and post rock is amazing to chill out to.

If you notice in this mix I go from hiphop over to indie to a little bit of post rock. The mix starts out on an upbeat note and leaves you chill and maybe even thinking about political issues, basically whatever you do when your relax and your thoughts are well collected.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

1	The Fugees : No Woman, No Cry

	Track 12 from The Score Length: 00:04:33 Year: 1996
	Track Description: I love this, it's a cover in an original way. I hate covers for the most part because they try to take the song and make it sound too much like the original and end up coming up very short. But groups that take a good song and give it their own creativity usually get a gold star in my book. SHOW LESS
2	Talib Kweli : Joy
	Mos Def and Talib Kweli make an insane combo. This is a great track off of Kweli's great cd Quality. I don't [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 7 from Quality Length: 00:04:14 Year: 2002
	Track Description: Mos Def and Talib Kweli make an insane combo. This is a great track off of Kweli's great cd Quality. I don't know what it is about them but I can't get enough. I've been listening to New Danger from Mos Def for the last few weeks and i'm still not sick of it. SHOW LESS
3	The Roots : Break You Off
	The Roots are great! If you are a strictly rock guy and can't stand shit like 50 cent, listen to The Roots. [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 9 from Phrenology Length: 00:07:27 Year: 2002
	Track Description: The Roots are great! If you are a strictly rock guy and can't stand shit like 50 cent, listen to The Roots. It will ease you into rap. They are basically a band with smooth lyrics and vocals. It's not like Limp Bizkit rap/rock shit it's so good. And this song is actually with Musiq and he has a voice that will make men want to fuck him. SHOW LESS
4	Mos Def : Blue Black Jack
	Ok, I glorified Mos Def earlier, why the fuck leave him out? This song makes me cream my panties. It's a rap [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 6 from The New Danger Length: 00:05:47 Year: 2004
	Track Description: Ok, I glorified Mos Def earlier, why the fuck leave him out? This song makes me cream my panties. It's a rap song but blues instrumentals in the background. Mos Def does an amazing jobs of taking all these genre specific sounds and making them his own. This guy really is a God of Hiphop. SHOW LESS

	Track 1 from Bluebeard Length: 00:02:22 Year: 2001
	Track Description: Bluebeard is kinda rare from what i've seen. I found them randomly on soulseek and they have easily made it into my top 10. They are japanese indie, there's another band i found on itunes with the same name that speaks english and sounds like some version of rock. These guys have a little emo feel to them but defiantly a good indie band. I have good news for you though, this is an instrumental song so if you did happen to listen to this you wouldn't have to deal with foreign languages. SHOW LESS
6	Desaparecidos : Greater Omaha
	I can't say I'm much of a Bright Eye's fan. I'm just not into Indie Folk so much but I freaking love Desapare [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 3 from Read Music/ Speak Spanish Length: 00:04:14 Year: 0000
	Track Description: I can't say I'm much of a Bright Eye's fan. I'm just not into Indie Folk so much but I freaking love Desaparecidos. The vocals aren't as harsh and i love the upbeat feel of it. This is one of their more popular songs but the whole "Read Music/Speak Spanish" cd is incredible. SHOW LESS
7	At The Drive-In : Alpha Centauri
	I've been addicted to In/Casino/Out for a while now. I had to include one of their songs. The mixtape is goi [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 1 from In/Casino/Out Length: 00:03:13 Year: 0000
	Track Description: I've been addicted to In/Casino/Out for a while now. I had to include one of their songs. The mixtape is going to start to slow down so this is the best fit really. I know i could have probably found a better one but this is a last minute addition and it fits perfectly after Desaparecidos. SHOW LESS

	I absolutely love The Hold Steady. My favorite song would have to be Charlemagne in Sweatpants but this song [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 8 from Seperation Sunday Length: 00:02:21 Year: 2005
	Track Description: I absolutely love The Hold Steady. My favorite song would have to be Charlemagne in Sweatpants but this song works perfectly with what im trying to accomplish. SHOW LESS

	Track 4 from Wholeness & Separation Length: 00:04:23 Year: 2006
	Track Description: I'm subscribed to Indiefeed podcast, which i suggest to anyone who wants new indie music, anyways they released this song one day and Halou became one of my favorite bands. I thoroughly believe Wholeness and Separation is the best album of 06. I don't think anything can top it, althought i could be proven wrong. SHOW LESS
10	Death Cab for Cutie : I WIll Follow You Into the Dark
	Holy shit am i hooked to this song. I've been listening to Plans over and over just to hear this song. I kno [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 5 from Plans Length: 00:03:09 Year: 2005
	Track Description: Holy shit am i hooked to this song. I've been listening to Plans over and over just to hear this song. I know it's on MTV and popular but i don't give a shit it's amazing. The only song that tops it is the next song which is... SHOW LESS

	Track 10 from Silent Alarm Length: 00:03:52 Year: 2005
	Track Description: ...This song. I've been listening to bloc party for over a year and Silent Alarm is on my all-time favorite cd list. I heard this song on a car commericial and it's been stuck in my head ever since, good new is i don't remember what car it was adversiting. This is by far my favorite song by them, i can't get enough of it. SHOW LESS

	Track 12 from Happy Hollow Length: 00:04:16 Year: 2006
	Track Description: This song caught me off guard. I was use to their normal sound and this one seemed completely out of character. I absolutely love it and it fits perfectly in this part of my mix. Happy Hollow is another great of 06 and i've been listening to it quite a bit. SHOW LESS
13	Anekdoten : For Someone
	I don't know how to describe these guys. They are basically a progressive metal/rock with an indie rock feel. [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 8 from From Within Length: 00:03:30 Year: 1999
	Track Description: I don't know how to describe these guys. They are basically a progressive metal/rock with an indie rock feel. They are very unique and amazing. Whenever i listen to them i think of Radiohead with amazing bass progression. Easily one of my favorite bands. I guess this mixtape could also bit a mix of some of my favorite bands. SHOW LESS
14	I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness : We Choose Faces
	Someone told me about this band a while ago so i picked up some stuff by them but never listened to it. When [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 6 from Fear is On Our Side Length: 00:06:09 Year: 2006
	Track Description: Someone told me about this band a while ago so i picked up some stuff by them but never listened to it. When i did, holy crap was i pleased. It's like indie rock with post rock influences and the musicianship to go with it. Another band i highly suggest. SHOW LESS
15	Red Sparowes : The Soundless Dawn Came Alive as Cities Began to Mark the Horizon.
	Post rock at it's finest. I wanted a few good post rocks songs to go out on but nothing too long like GS!BE. [...] SHOW MORE
	Track 3 from At The Soundless Dawn Length: 00:04:19 Year: 2005
	Track Description: Post rock at it's finest. I wanted a few good post rocks songs to go out on but nothing too long like GS!BE. If this was a shorter mix i would have thrown some GS!BE in for sure but I think Red Sparowes really does the trick. SHOW LESS
16	Mogwai : Auto Rock

	Track 1 from Mr. Beast Length: 00:04:18 Year: 2006
