Comment:

This mixed was finished towards the end of april 2003 in the early morning before my return home from school. I'm unsure as to the exact date. It was created as an autobiographical mix of sorts; each song had to have resonated in some way in my life because of the song itself and not because of external emotions that I attached to the song. For example, if I hear a song and am immediately reminded of a period in my life, that would work, but if I had only formed a connection between the music and the point in my life because of forced repetition (songs that cheer you up after break ups, etc) they were a no go. I narrowed down the list by only admitting songs that I can listen to for hours on the "repeat: one" setting of any stereo. 60 min.
