I made this mix a while after I switched swim teams and met this fantastic girl who shortly after i made this, I started dating. It had been a while since i had made a mix, so it's not perfect and the flow isn't exactly great from song to song, but that doesnt stop me from listening to it, which is usually while I'm driving. To me, it's a good mix to drive to.

4 Explosions In The Sky... : Your Hand In Mine
I only used the (Goodbye) portion of this song from the Friday Night Lights soundtrack. Transitions from heavier first 3 songs into the rest of the mellower tracks.

7 Last Days Of April : Life Companion Murphy's Law
I don't really remember the exact reason I put this song on, but I know that I like Last Days Of April's general sound. The word "April" in the name might have provoked it.

+3 for the Pink Floyd and Explosions in the sky songs, -1 for Coldplay. I think that ending a mix with pink floyd is just fine, especially Wish You Were Here. I like the melancholy aftermath! ;)

What a wonderful first mix! Though I disagree with the chopping of the Fugazi track, you still included Fugazi, so that's a big plus.

Also, following up with my favourite EITS track is pure magic. That song is nothing short of amazing.

And then, despite the fact that you've included Coldplay (sorry, I have a strong dislike for them), you throw some Her Space Holiday in the mix.

Good shit. Keep up the good work.

I forgot to add that I bookended the mix with some of the spoken word from the song "For Meg" by On The Might Of Princes.
