Comment:

The sixth volume in a growing list of the music that I'm either ashamed that I remember or ashamed that I don't. Like all even-numbered albums in this series, this mix is mostly the latter.

Tracks I do remember are mostly the hip-hop tracks, which boomed in the gym classes and crosstown bus rides of my middle school years. The other tracks, I think, flow pretty well into each other--especially "The Message" into "A Forest" into "White Horse."

Geez, there a number of these tunes I think are still quite awesome and relevant. Mind you, I don't really care much about other people's musical preferences.
