liner notes

I rode from Ohio to Kansas on the back of a magic turtle to write a thesis on Star Wars and kinda teach some kids. Red states can be scary, though, so off I go to Mass. to do something or other.

Wow, one of your mixes is doing swell in the ratings! But remember, Bob Dole did 'swell' in the primaries...

You made bunny cry. Aren't you ashamed?
Most of the sadness captured here is relationship-inspired. Each track features an especially tear duct-draining quote. I tried to mix well-known sad bastards with a few surprises, and to play with tempo and tone a bit. Enjoy, you sad, hopeless cases.

Metromantic: A Love Letter to New York

When my special ladyfriend was leaving for NY, I made her this mix to captured the city in a way that we could share, despite the distance. It is silly and lonesome and covers numerous styles, which sounds like the city to me.

I attempted to make a mix based not on the music, but by song titles that I found interesting or amusing. Later, I edited the list and tried to pick the songs that made for the best listening experience. It has some tempo ruts, but otherwise it is a fun listen.

You: An Acrostic

I designed this mix several years ago for my girlfriend. It consists of love songs with the first letter of each song, save the first and last, spelling her name: Sarah E. Hewitt. The style is both silly and seductive, which, if you knew us, you would think was wholly appropriate. (I used R.E.M. twice, which I know is against "the rules," but it was necessary, and I think it works, especially given how different the two songs are in both style and content: the first is "awwww," while the other is “rarrrrrrr.")
