mixtapes make your ears go happy.

this is the first of two mixes i will be posting tonight. it's title is "For A Friend" because it is just that: for a friend. now, i don't necessarily mean one of mine (though it is), it can be for anyone. this is a great mix to make copies of and give to people for a few reasons: it's fairly accessable in content and sound, it's pretty fun and thoroughly enjoyable, and it's a great way to expose people to new bands and sounds that they may never have previously heard (and much easier than getting them to sit and listen to a whole album). so make a copy, or even better, MAKE YOUR OWN MIX and give it to someone you care about.

also, for those of you who may have downloaded my other mixes you will notice that this time i unified them and made the tags for one album so you can listen to the tracks in order without having to search your itunes (or whatever program) for each track. dumb dee dumb dumb.
