13 mixes taggedfreak out

When you realize you're actually going crazy....this playlist might help... It's probably my most eclectic mix yet.

Wild thing, aww shucks. A smattering of songs from psychedelic sixties that screw the rules, freak out, let everything explode in a flurry of sound and color, float out in a new dimension, set it on fire, walk away, and leave little drips pounding in your brainwaves for eons. 10 tracks including music by The Velvet Underground, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, and Pink Floyd.

For when you just need to freak out a little over all the work you have yet to do... (With songs from Kaiser Chiefs, Beck, Nellie McKay, etc.)

When you need some inspiration to make moves. Turn this sh*t up!

Twenty-six tracks including music by Arthur Russel, Beatles and Chad Vangaalen. I'm not particularly religious, but this playlist has been the root of countless breakdowns and the antidote to many a panic attack. Sometimes feeling sad is better than not knowing what you feel. Listen when life gives you appendicitis and there isn't anything you can damn well do about it.

neurotic songs about love and stuff

Spanning genres such as psych, jazz, garage and early-electronica, this American music pushed the limits of sense, producing an anarchic cacophony that undoubtedly scared the shit out of your common hippy.

it may not be what you think or it may be exactly what you are... but it'll keep your brain on the move

...The Avalanches, Crystal Castles, Passion Pit...

It's just been so damn quiet around here, lately. Eff that, I say! Eff that right in the A! So this week we went with the noise-mongering, yelp pop conglomeratives for your sweet angst consideration. Future of the Left, The Mae Shi and Die! Die! Die! are all present for your pleasure. Rock it!

For those times when all you want to do is throw your hands up and party hard.

Twelve tracks including music by The Knife, XTC and Prince

Nine tracks including music by Bush Tetras, Fugazi and James White and The Blacks.
