tracklist
| 1 | Christie Front Drive : Radio |
|
The start of this song is a hum of pure, unspoilt Christie Front Drive guitar feedback. It's like their trademark guitar sound pouring straight out of a mountain spring. It's pretty much what I would imagine rays of sunlight to sound like if they were audible. The riff that comes in after this is life-affirmingly good. Perfect to get you in the mood for the rest of this mix.

| 2 | Very Secretary : Trade-Off |

Lovely song, lovely band. Just nice twinkling guitars and melodies and soft singing. Slow-ish but still fairly upbeat. The little snare roll bit at the start of this song makes the transition from the previous song pretty cool.

| 3 | Brand New : Logan To Government Center |
|
The first note of this is the same as the ending note for the last song, so it fits great. Nice poppy MTVmo song this, it keeps the balance good too because after the slow VS song another slow song would have made this mix get boring.

| 4 | Cap'n Jazz : Little League |

Another cool transition, one song fades out and the start of this song fades in. The coolest, most uplifting, youthful band ever. This song is a classic.

| 5 | Boilermaker : Slow Down |

Time for another slow song. This one is less energetic and uplifting than the others, but still nice. More contemplative (?).

Slow song again. My favourite Van Pelt song... their twinkly guitars doing their thing while Chris Leo emo raps about how beautiful the puppy's chin/steam ship's muscle/etc are. Fabulous.

| 10 | The Promise Ring : Red And Blue Jeans |

Even though the album is called "nothing feels good", and even though red and blue jeans sound ridiculous, this song is a total smile fest. It's got a slightly sad feeling, but it's more like, happy sad. You know? It comes in cool after the Van pelt song too because they end/start with just drums.

Time to bring the mix to an end, which is good because I think about 40 minutes is the perfect length of time for these things. This is a godmo classic. You can just listen to this and watch birds hopping around on the lawn and feel great.

Amazing mix. Definitely not my style, but damn entertaining. I'm glad that there is someone else who can craft a damn good mix from start to finish with no definitive lulls in quality. Well-thought out and well documented.
Thank you.
Thank you.

While I haven't heard the vast majority of these bands, you get huge props for honoring The Sequence of The Mix and putting lovely effort into describing the songs themselves. Yay!
