I’ve decided to reformat what was once the supposedly weekly but sparsely updated “Start” music mix into a longer format, bi-weekly mix of ten songs or less available as a full download. I hope to have these available every other Monday so, until next time, enjoy the first of (hopefully) many Mixed Bags.
This mix is inspired by two things: my plane landing and yesterday’s drive through a desolate road in Las Vegas. They both offer beautiful views of two aspects of this place—the bustling strip, the barren desert—but, to me, create a sense of melancholy in their juxtaposition.
I didn’t specify it in the cover graphic but the first song by Florence and the Machine is actually the acoustic version from her session with BBC Radio 2. It is amazing and one of my favorite tracks on the mix.
Here is the tracklist: Cosmic Love (Acoustic) by Florence + the Machine July Flame by Laura Viers Small Mountain by Midlake Walk In The Park by Beach House Dumb Lovers by Pearl and the Beard Brostjor by Olafur Arnalds Almost Crimes (Acoustic) by Broken Social Scene Roslyn by Bon Iver and St. Vincent Walk On The Moon (Acoustic) by Asobi Seksu
