Comment:

I stared at my music library for a while, then I realized just how many cities are in song titles. Which brought me to think, I bet this has probably been done before, but why not make a big city mix. I spent a chunk of time looking up big cities, then I put it together. It just had to have a city name. That, and it had to blend with all the other songs in the mix. I hope I did it well. Songs 2-16 are cities, and Songs 1 and 17 reiterate the mix's theme. And Beth Orton and Nick Drake are so soothing. I love it. Feedback is always welcome!

It was Adam Pascal. :) After I uploaded the mix, though, I realized that he didn't quite go with the vibe, so I switched him out for Interpol's "NYC".

For anybody who wanted to know: the original Track 4 was Adam Pascal's "New York State of Mind" (Billy Joel cover).
