Deep Breaths

Winter's at full pace and I'm doing all I can to ward off the inevitable sadness I always seem to feel around this time of year. At least the Winter gives me the opportunity to funnel some of that sadness into mixes of gorgeous music I can't bring myself to listen to during other times in the year. Inspired by three images I found I decided to create a set of mixes for Winter much like I do for the Summer months. I hope you love them like I love them. Like a cozy blanket. Like the warm sun shining on my face as I look at the barren trees through my window. Like the hug you desperately needed but didn't have to ask for.

StereoType Winter Mix-Tape Vol. 1 :

Awake

The first in the trio is actually the second mix I had complete. I decided to release it first because it's of a slightly brighter feeling than perhaps the others. I tried to keep some of the heavier stuff in check with a bit of optimism. By using a remix of a particularly weighted song or pairing a darker track with something that has a nice bounce to it. All in all I hoped to achieve something that has some mass to it but doesn't feel like a backpack full of lead. Like a long, deep breath of cold winter air through your nostrils. Something to wake you up. Remind you you're alive.
