He didn't know good music from grunge, a style derived from a movement in rock music characterized by unkempt clothing and aggressive, nihilistic songs.

Legends Never Die
Some things aren't meant to end.
The series reached its 10 year anniversary about this point. Maybe even longer since I don't have an exact date. I thought it'd be good idea to commemorate the time passed and heartbreak experienced over the years with a new volume and cover art that paid tribute to the very first one. Hope you enjoy!

Could This Be The End?
Quite a bit of time had passed, but I felt like there was still a piece missing. So I made Volume 4 with the intention of ending the series. Bury it.
Some things won't stay buried.

Struck Gold
At this point, making these country mixes was a total blast. Sure, some time had passed between this one and the last, but that just meant more music. Now I had 3 volumes and each had their own personality, with the cover art I created becoming like a face for each one. Volume 3? It had it'd bright spots and it's dark corners, just like a frontier night.

Attention Shoppers
Have you ever been shopping and suddenly notice the music they have playing? Usually pretty relaxing, right? Well, I guess it depends on the store. No matter, I decided to make a mix of my own. Take a listen while you browse the interwebs.

He Rides Again
I had tackled "country" once and it was a blast. I really enjoyed the process and discovering all these different sounds, but I felt like I had only scratched the surface. This time around I was going to pay a little more attention to the classic sound and add in a few modern ones to compare & contrast. I thought by doing this one, I'd be done. I was so wrong!

From The Middle Ages To The Wild West
"Oh, I like ALL types of music...except country of course." I hear this all the time. I've said it plenty, and I still do. But then you go through something, maybe heartbreak, and you think to yourself, "Might as well try this country music thing." What I decided to do though, was collect all the music I considered both country and actually good. It was a new frontier for me, and this here is what happened on my first ride...
Teen Movie
The best teen movies have a great soundtrack. From The Breakfast Club and Sixteen Candles to Dazed & Confused and Clueless, music elevates the material to a whole new level. What I present to you is the soundtrack to a movie that has yet to be made. Don't just listen, picture it in your mind's eye...

Sticky Sweet
Guilty pleasures. Well all have them. When I decided to peek inside the closet where I hide my guilty pleasures, I found it had turned into a club filled with some amazing pop music. After I stopped dancing, I realized there was nothing to be guilty about. I was a born again pop music fan (only a little) and it was time to have my Sweet Sixteen.

A Whole Year, A Whole Mix
I'm gonna take you on a year long trip, so pack your bags. Let's start from the beginning and experience everything - the birth of a new year, the seasons that change the world around us, and the months that go by like pages on a calendar. Take it all in and don't forget to breathe.
It's Summer
Summertime in California can get pretty hot, so it's best to keep your cool. Lay your blanket out on the sand, keep your frosty drinks nearby, and relax as the day passes you by.
