I'm a dork, I take making mixes seriously, High Fidelity John Cusack style, and put a lot of thought into it...I mean sometimes there's party mixes which come together quicker but I've been known to spend months making a mix. A lot of times it takes about a month. Well anyway, lots of life changes, winter settling in, I was thinking about my least favorite thing to hear in a weather forecast: the wintry mix. A shitty mix of snow, sleet, and rain, that just fucking absolutely sucks. Miserable. So I tried to make a mix that made me imagine being in my cozy apartment with a snowy shitstorm going on outside...here's what I came up with...give it a listen if'n ya like. Download link at the bottom of the post. It's a .zip file made on a virus-free mac.
Wintry Mix (or, Falling off the Floor)
1. Modest Mouse - Styrofoam Boots/It's All Nice On Ice, Alright 2. White Williams - Route to Palm 3. Simple Kid - Serotonin 4. Radiohead - Kid A 5. Air - Clouds Up 6. Richard Hawley - Dark Road 7. Drug Rug - Winter Time 8. Panda Bear - Bros 9. Blind Boys of Alabama - Motherless Child 10. Morphine - Cure For Pain 11. Neil Young - Winterlong 12. Set and Setting - Skyscraper 13. Bjork - sonnets/unrealities: XI 14. Elbow - Any Day Now 15. Khonnor - I was everything you wanted until I quit 16. The Notwist - Consequence 17. The Sea and Cake - Sound and Vision

I numbered the tracks in the .zip but you'll have to put them in order on a playlist yourself..

or just go to winamp -> sort by folder and filename :P
i listened to it and it's pretty legit. you have good taste.. you should probably be a dj..
my buddy does it (he does like house/techno/dance stuff) and makes a couple hundred a night for a few hours of dj'ing..

really nice mix! I felt it all flowed together really well. The only one that felt a bit out of place to me was Bjork, but thats not a big deal. I'm gonna give this one plenty of spins I'm sure.
Thanks for the upload!
