I despise mornings. Now that I'm not a lazy college kid, I actually have to get up at a reasonable hour and go somewhere to (hopefully) be productive. It's especially hard for me because sleep is like a glorious love affair with my bed and every morning, without fail, she attempts to seduce me to get back inside. A good soundtrack is my sleep-salt-peter.
Track 01 - 07: wake up.
Track 08 - 09: shower time.
Track 10 - 16: drive.
I know it's not the most cohesive mix, but it's got a lot of personal highlights from lesser mixes.

Track Description:
I've been waking up to this song's opening 'twinkle' for nearly two months. I know this song gets a lot of play, but this version is wonderful. It makes a dreary 5:30am winter morning a little easier to bare, for lack of better words. SHOW LESS

Track Description:
This song was my wakeup mix for the terrible Corvallis winters when I lived in a drafty house with no carpet and very little heat. I don't use it much any more, since I still get muscle-memory cringes that remind me of the bitter cold. SHOW LESS

Track Description:
I'll just get this out up front: this might just be the worst big-budget album ever recorded for a major label. Pharrell proves, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that he can't write a good song to save his life. "slow motion like a dream, but real time is what it seems..." But, nonetheless, I'm ridiculously nostalgic and this song reminds me of working a shit job and having a damn good time. SHOW LESS
