Red light
Green light of love
And death rides a horse; National disgrace
Chateau in virginia waters of march
On the table for two months
Off into the white light
In the black history month
This mix fills up the tape (2 secs off!) and takes full advantage of the open contest. No theme, just match the words. Well, I wanted this mix to have a diverse, uh, mix, of genres, and I wanted the tracks to work well together while maintaining their uniqueness. I think it works.

tracklist
| 1 | Charizma & Peanut Butter Wolf : Red Light Green Light |
|
Ok, so not really knowing what song to start out with in a competition like this, I just picked one of my favorite songs and went from there. This song is courtesy of Charizma, a gifted MC who was taken from this world before his time. If this track is any indication, he would have done great things for the world of hip-hop. But this track isn't sad like that story is. With its stop and go beat and smooth-ass flow, you will become a fan. You have no choice. It just happens. "Red light."

I have to admit I started to like The Cult ever since my friends started playing Gran Tourismo for about 12 hours a day. The voice just gets stuck in your head.

This is one of those songs that just puts me in a trance. It is so consistently quiet, while still having the low buzzing sound that makes you feel like you are in a sci-fi movie.

| 12 | Loretta Lynn : Table for Two |

Ever since Travis put Merle Haggard on one of his mixtapes, I have been listening to a bit of country from that era. This woman here is an angel. And her story-telling and voice are second-to-none.

Here's my fake ending for the mix. This song takes it down a notch with some Finnish lounge/soul/R&B. One would think it would be a nice way to end the mix. Soft like Charmin.

After starting the mix with my favorite hip-hop artists, I decided to end it with another one of them: DFA1979. This mix is a little more dancy than the original track, leaving you bobbing your head and smiling as the final track fades...
