I’ve got a series of mix cds that I started making in the summer of 2001, the last one was put together last year. The first one started as kind of a pity party breakup music kinda mix, but as time went on and I made more of them, they kind of became a general downer/lazy/chillout/stoney kind of thing. I can spend a whol rainy day with these 8 discs on random. They definitely got better from vol. 5 and up. I’ve always handed them out freely to whoever wanted 'em, so if any of you want a copy of any of these, shoot me a message and I’ll send ya a megaupload link or something. Sorry in advance for the long ass list. And yes, by the very nature of these mixes, some of this shit is pretty corny. Feel free to mock me.
