I like to make mix CDs. I feel like I've always been pretty decent at it, but I do allow my own personal tastes to creep into the mixes. Maybe it's that funky touch that makes it perfect. So every summer for years now, I've been making a summer mix CD and giving it to all of my friends. Usually it's songs that we can't get out of our heads, what's popular at the moment, and songs that are associated with a certain memory or event. And then I throw in a few new songs here and there to give us something new to make memories to.
This year is no different, it's a fusion of music from upbeat to chill. Some songs have specific memories attached and others just made me feel awesome, windows rolled down driving down 630 at 10 PM at night. So I'm sharing the mix with you, just incase any of you wanted a different summer mix. I got the music from various tv shows and commercials I've seen, from recommendations like the Rolling Stone, and some just randomly stumbling upon them and falling in instant love. I hope you enjoy - and send me your mixes! I always love discovering new music!
