The last time I swam at night was at my friend's mansion in third grade. This is a tribute to those sleepovers. Except I like better music now, such as Boards of Canada and the Field Mice.

Another downer playlist for your average nostalgic drug-addict heart-broken psycho. Mostly downer anyway.. enjoy.

9 tracks total, featuring: Buckethead, The Brian Jonestown Massacre and School of Seven Bells.

Music by Chet Faker, Thievery Corporation, RAC, jj, Pinback, The Stone Roses, Jai Paul, QOTSA, Elliot Smith,

For the days when the world outside your window isn't beautiful, you can always turn on some music and look at your shoes

This mix includes a couple of songs by Memory Flowers, I haven't been this excited about a new act since Bon Iver, I hope you'll like 'em too.

Fionn Regan and Message to Bears are some other highlights.

This is the magic carpet that will take you up to cloud 9. Blissful grooves, smooth vocals, and melodies to keep you soaring. Don't worry about the pause or skip button, just relax, open your mind and be swept away!

Mystical states enter and depart with a spontaneous evanescence, generally lasting for only brief periods before fading into the light of common day. Yet in that sudden opening of a window to another reality, as in the fleeting moments of poetic apprehension received in a state of intoxication, such states give evidence of an intrinsic ‘mystical faculty of human nature, usually crushed to death by the cold facts and dry criticism of the sober hour’ —Richard Tarnas

He's just a kid and he never knew
He would be a sleeper in the valley so soon
