For a couple of years now I’ve been aware of Yewknee’s Summer Mix Series but until now I have never participated. In fact, I have never made a mixtape (well, when I was younger I would try and tape my favourite songs off the radio and then play it to death upon completion… but it’s not the same thing).
I’ve made my mix, just thirteen songs, to the theme of “Scottish” although you could say it’s a little more specific than that - but that’s the theme I picked when I set out to make my mix, so I’m keeping it.

01 - Arab Strap - The First Big Weekend
02 - Sons & Daughters - Gilt Complex
03 - Belle and Sebastian - Another Sunny Day
04 - The Pastels - Nothing To Be Done
05 - Vague ( ) Space - Waiting To Fall
06 - Orange Juice - Holiday Hymn
07 - Teenage Fanclub - When I Still Have Thee
08 - Cocteau Twins - Lorelei
09 - 1990s - See You At The Lights
10 - Frightened Rabbit - Swim Until You Can’t See Land
11 - Idlewild - When I Argue I See Shapes
12 - The Jesus And Marychain - Darklands
13 - Camera Obscura - The Sweetest Thing

The Story:  This mix is signifying my leave from work in South Durham (I40 MM 270) at approximately 8:15pm, driving west towards the Blue Ridge Mountains.  It begins when I crank my car, and ends as I pull over for a quick break at the Davie County rest stop (I40 MM 177).  These songs are representative of the atmosphere, my surroundings, and my mood as I make this drive.  The tracklisting matches perfectly with scenery and time of day, and hopefully can do the same for others, regardless of where they live or how fast they drive.

1.  Future Islands – Walking Through That Door 
2.  Cinnamon Chasers – Luv Deluxe
3.  M83 – We Own the Sky
4.  The Arcade Fire – Half Light II (No Celebration)
5.  !!! – Infinifold
6.  Asobi Seksu – Thursday
7.  Glasser – Mirrorage
8.  Fuck Buttons – Surf Solar
9.  The Antlers – No Widows
10.  Broken Social Scene – Lover’s Spit (Feist Piano Acoustic B-side)
11.  Benji Hughes – Do You Think They Would Tell You?
12.  The Knife – Silent Shout
13.  The Weeknd – The Knowing
14.  Frank Ocean – American Wedding

Tricking grandma into listening to the Clash
I started making mix CDs for my grandma on her birthday.  The first one had Perry Como every other track, and some traditional Irish folk songs, and some Tony Bennett.  But she asked for more music, and I thought I'd get her up to speed on what the kids are into these days.  Maybe if the progression is gentle, she'll listen to the Clash without even realizing it.
Mix cover is of videographer Phyllis Rodan, and comes from lovolution. She's not my grandma.
