Making two mixes for my girlfriend and her roommate for their mini roadtrip to Santa Fe this weekend. Fun stuff. This is a more pop themed mix, songs to sing along to, songs to have fun with, blah blah. A decent celebration of the summer to be. No real theme other than that. Just songs I like from different time periods, whatever. I think that it turned out really well. I used Mixmeister to edit a handful of tracks as well as blend/mix the tracks. So if you download you basically have to listen in order or else you'll hear fades that don't make sense. Just makes sense with this type of mix. Title comes from the first line in the Animal Collective song, pretty silly. Anyway, tracklist follows. Enjoy.

2. freestyle fellowship - inner city boundaries
3. kleerup - until we bleed (ft. lykke li)
4. kelis - millionaire (ft. andre 3000)
5. the-dream - walkin on the moon (ft. kanye west)
6. common - new wave
7. abstract rude - thynk eye can (ft. haiku d'etat)
8. animal collective - summertime clothes
9. phoenix - 1901
10. robin thicke - lazy bones
11. private - my secret lover

I remember buying this album. *Gasp* Andy bought something?
Yes. In 2005 I was half-assing my way through community college, living at home, and not doing much.
I remember forgoing Border's (which in the town I grew up in was the sole source for anything remotely "indie rock") for Everyday Music. You see, I had worked a crazy job the summer prior, making a lot of money for a kid just weeks outta high school with no work experience. And I blew almost all that money on cd's and other things I didn't need.
I'd had some Sea and Cake albums on my computer at the time ("Oui", "Nassau" and "One Bedroom") and though I never really listened to them, I decided that Sam Prekop's album was one that I was going to buy on that trip. (I'm unsure, but the other might have been Fiery Furnace's "Blueberry Boat")
Prekop's voice is so likable, the smoothness of his music so enjoyable, I immediately fell in love with the record. It was around this time that my mom and I got close and I accompanied her on some of her sales trips for work. The cd that I brought along that we both enjoyed a lot was this. Fond memories of driving to the beach with "Who's Your New Professor" just capturing the serenity of the Oregon Coastal passages.
It's not the best album ever, but it's one that I come back to every so often. Today was one of those days.
