Comment:

Made in late December 2003

I was trying to do sooooo many things with this mix...but I was (and still am) quite happy with how it turned out.

#1 - it was for a girl I liked, who at that stage had been confusing me about whether she wanted friendship or more or nothing at all. So it had to get across some of my frustration...and let her know that I really wanted her.

#2 - It was pretty much going to be her introduction to hip-hop. So I had to stock up on my favorite artists and favorite songs (i.e. Quannum) that were also easily accessible for non hip-hop fans.

#3 - Attempted to get a day's passage theme, from waking up from a bad dream to going to sleep at night.

#4 - I'm a big fan of Radiohead, that song had blown my mind when i saw it live a few months prior to making this mix...and it so perfectly described my thoughts on the whole thing, that I had to include it. Of course it didn't fit with the rest of the mix, so thats why i seperated it, making it a hidden track.
