When the sun goes, nobody knows what comes next. I think this mix is for when you're alone and taking walks, trying to right your heart and your head, and if you go out to a bar it's not to drink, but just to think and as far as companionship, on these kind of nights, you and can take it or just plainly leave.

What I will do with this mix when I listen to it really depends. I could have a mental breakdown or achieve inner peace, or, perhaps a combination thereof. I shall leave the decision to the fate of my future self, but odds are that my breathing will become relaxed and thoughts and memories will drift incense-like into a beautiful smoky dragon protecting me from the night and its many talented and treacherous accomplices.

(Trip-hop and laid back tracks make or break this mix.)

Yes, this might seem to go against the flow, but the beat is very relaxing, even at over 100bpm and even though it's a rapid-fire rap song, it still works.
