vlaskerbean's Mixtapes

A Logical Progression I

The beginning of the relationship mix. The tracks aren't so much about flow and complimenting one another, but stand testiment to a great love that ended just as tenderly and sadly as it started.

We met at a party, and the parties probably ended it. This is the ode, the great soundtrack, to the greatest year of my life. I made it a few weeks ago. Christmas makes everyone a little crazy, I think.

Songs for a Hindu Sage

“The truth is that we live out our lives putting off all that can be put off; perhaps we all know deep down that we are immortal and that sooner or later all men will do and know all things.”

~ Jorge Luis Borges, from Funes the Memorious (1964).

I made this mix when I realized I was headed south. It has a theme; hurt women and the men who beg for them, and everyone plays the guitar.

A Logical Progession II
