I'm going to "transfer" a bunch of my mixes from Art of the Mix over here. Since there's not a ton of people using the site during this "dead time", I figured it would be a good time to do it. These next few submissions are all from a time when I was just sort of listless, etc. I don't blame anyone who finds it all a little too much of a cloud-gazing affair.

Another from a few years ago. This is what I wrote about it back then:

This mix is also bookended by dialogue from the classic noir film, D.O.A. Hikkomori is the Japanese word for social withdrawl due to extreme anxiety. I seem to have a case of that plus a case of unrequited love/limerence. I feel a little better about it all now.
