Spring Fever

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 15:10:45 -0600

Spring is most definitely in the air. As the snow begins to melts, new life and color emerge into the world along with the possibility of new hope, dreams, and love. Is this asking a bit too much out of mother nature? Maybe so, but if given the choice I would choose the love bug over a mosquito any day of the week.

When you're driving down the highway in the summertime with the windows down and your cheap sunglasses on, you need the perfect mix of upbeat classics and slower standbys. So here it is.

Remember When... We First Got Together

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 15:10:45 -0600

Late Summer of 2007 was an beautiful time in my life. It was then that I met the guy I'm so incredibly in love with now. Music always brings back special moments, so I created a list of songs that were in heavy rotation on the radio at the time (with the help of music charts of course). This is my attempt at a time capsule of sorts. Maybe one day we'll be goofy and try to recreate our first date for our anniversary. Then, I'll just pop this playlist in and remember when...

Current Obsessions

Short but sweet. Some cool techno-ish songs that make you want to dance start this playlist off, a few oddballs in the middle, and 2 interesting ones at the end that i can't quite classify. Fun to drive or pregame/party to.

"it doesn't matter how many new haircuts you get, or gyms you join, or how many glasses of chardonnay you drink with your girlfriends. you'll still go bed every night going over every detail, & wondering what you did wrong, or how you could've misunderstood. & how in the hell, for that brief moment, you could've thought you were happy. & sometimes, you even convince yourself that he'll see the light, & show up at your door."

Audiophile Approved Hip/Hop And Rap

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 15:10:45 -0600

Playlist... So damn legit! "Welcome to good music!" says this hip/hop & rap enthusiast that continues to refuse accepting soldier boy's "crank that" as a real song. This playlist is pretty much the shit for pre-game drinking, just kicking it around the house, and for making sweet, sweet, love to my ear's everytime I turn it on.

This Can't Be Healthy

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 15:10:45 -0600

A playlist of my all-time favorite songs that are crucial to my well being. Alternative-rock-esque just because it simply happens to be. These songs come to mind whenever I feel really crappy. Why? Because I love them, but some of them are bound to make you feel twice as worse. Screw the rap music. Who wants to listen to that when they're miserable/depressed/miserable/ highly irritable!? That's when you want to listen to some highly depressing music. Just basically, more or less, a list of music that makes you feel... different then you already do. I reccomend this if you feel miserable, My Chemical Romance is oddly soothing. Definitely not music you want to fall asleep to....

Guilty Pleasures

Remember when boy bands were popular? Back in the days where N*Sync and Britney Spears ruled the radio? Ah, brings back memories. I'm not ashamed to admit I still listen to a lot of teen idol pop music on occasion--it takes me back to a time in my life when things were a lot simpler. So, here. Some songs that just might do the same for you--and that you probably still like, even if you're ashamed to admit it. Hey, if nothing else, they're catchy, right?

An Introduction into Dub and Deep House ... Although It can get alittle confusing about the defination of Deep House.
The first 6 songs touch base with Reggae on the dub side and the rest touch base with Chilly ... Easy Ambient side of house albeit real House not the commercial stuff. For more on the songs and artists check out http://www.discogs.com ... the best source of artist 411.
