Working sucks. Living at home with your parents for the Summer sucks even more. Studying for the LSAT might be the worst one (I take it next month). So yeah, I don't get a lot of time to relax between all of this. Here's a mix that I threw together to relax and get my mind off of all this other shit. Here ya go!

| 3 | Peter Bjorn and John : Up Against the Wall |
|
I just started loving this band/cd. Young Folks might be the catchiest song, but this might be the best song. It also fits awesomely into this mix.

| 5 | Neko Case : Hold On, Hold On |

I think heavy reverb is a theme on this mix tape. For some reason, this along with a lot of bass relaxes me.

| 7 | Destroyer : European Oils |
|
Honestly, I've never been able to really get into Dan Bejer's stuff (with the very notable exception being the New Pornographers). A couple of his songs, however, can be flat out beautiful.

| 10 | Karate : With Age |
|
A song that I've been obsessed with for the past month or so. The lyrics really get to me - it talks about how you can never really let go of your first love, which is brutally true.

An appropriate way to end the mixtape, with just solo piano. Hopefully I'm relaxed by now, and have forgotted about all the shit I have to deal with.

This looks awesome. And ending with minimalist classical is kind of dope.

This is great all the way through. I'm especially liking the Philip Glass bit at the end.
