Hauntingly beautiful folk/indie folk/singer/songwriter music.

A mix of sexy, haunting, and emotional songs with a hint of jazz. For those late nights when the lights are dim and your mind is left to wander.

just run away and get lost. and never let them find you.

Beautiful calm melodies which are guaranteed to give you goosebumps. Icludes Bon Iver, James Vincent McMorrow and Mumford&Sons.

yes, children have gone missing. no, they were not pulled out of their beds by gnashing teeth and blood-soaked paws. it’s not that I don’t believe that there are wolves in the forest that lies at the edge of our property. as Jackson said, we’ve all heard them crying out into the night. it’s just that unlike the older generations, I don’t believe that they are beasts in man suits looking to haul away our young.

For all the beautiful nightmares that draw you in and repulse you at the same time. Close your eyes, relax, and let the madness commence. Ten tracks including Fever Ray, CocoRosie, and Oh Land

A curious feeling swam through him
That everything was beutiful there
And it would always stay beutiful there

Tom Waits
Elliot Smith
Aphex Twin

Mist covered sidewalks under a full moon, shadows dancing in the allies...the taste of mystery and romance in the air... the only thing missing is a detective's hat...

we died on a wednesday

I've been working on this one for quite a while. Yikes, it's 61 tracks! Just think of it this way: bookmark it (shameless suggestion) and listen to it incrementally. Is that the right word? Or just waste all your skips on it. Or don't listen to it at all. It's up to you, really.

Most of these songs consist of crushing despair and sadness. I may or may not have shed tears to some of these tracks. Disclaimer: the FotC song that I named the mix after is not included.

We'll be blind and dumb before we fall asleep.
