Hey! It’s a break up mix! Maybe it’s a tad late, depending on how long it takes to dispossess another soul from their own. We all know these things come in groups so surely someone out there can use it.
I’m in that number, so this mix came easy and out well. Ideally, I’m hoping it will serve as a cathartic tool for anyone that needs it. For no, my friends, these are not all songs of sadness or despair. Each song feels naturally in its place within the progression. If a person could submerge oneself into this mix, then perhaps it could live up to its title and provide a truly cathartic experience to the listener.
So though my particular situation is not quite resolved, I can say that I definitely learned at least one thing from it so far: Your friends really don’t want to hear about this shit.
Fair enough…but everyone likes a mix tape!

illumination was submitted for the Tapeworms March theme: “Wake Up.” I am posting it today because it’s Easter Sunday and I find this to make for a pretty good Easter mix. My only regret is that I didn’t have it posted this morning so that someone might wake up to it.
