Clyde's Monthly Mixtape

[Alex]

They were both really good. I enjoyed the second more, but I think I was just in the right mood for it.

[Clyde]

So the group decided to go back to a partner system, which means that there will probably be a new mix posted every month.

Here is the first one for January.  It was supposed to be a "New Beginnings Theme" but I did a recap of all of last year's themes instead.


My (late mix) for jonny_m.

The theme for this month was extremely hard for me. I just couldn't make it work. Since Jonny left the group for a few months, I decided to make a recap mix of what he missed. Basically, I merged the last twelve themes of 2010 into this mix.

Also, normally I make a cover but Photoshop was being a jerk.

Sigh, I am getting pretty bad when it comes to finishing mixes on time.  This mix is for [user]yodel[/user].  It was a tricky mix for me this month since I wanted to throw in some songs she hasn't heard before, but she listens to nearly everything I listen to and then some.  I hope I succeeded in giving her some new music at the very least!

The songs I chose revolve around seasons (mostly winter, although the second half has a more summer-y vibe) with a few other songs thrown in that fit the overall mood.
