Designers.MX | Aug 2011

Designers.MX is basically my dream website; “Music that drives our favorite designers, and allowing them to create a unique cover design for each of their individual playlists. A daily music and design masterpiece.” They were kind enough to ask me to submit a mix, which went live today, titled It’s Not Forever. It’s a mix of songs by some of my favorite artists, complimented by some songs from friends of mine. Go have a listen.


A Summer Mixtape for You


I felt like compiling some songs for a summer-time mix. A bunch of songs I’ve been digging lately. Download HERE.

My Favorite Songs from 2010 – Part 2

My sequel to yesterdays set of songs that I posted. Compared to the way it starts out, it’s completely different by the end, but it works. This time the photos are from the Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico, again taken from The Big Picture.

I don’t do this as much as I should, but I put together 2 playlists of my favorite songs from this year. I divided them into two, because they are two very distinct sets. The photos are of devastation from the earthquake that happened in Chile earlier this year, and from one of my favorite photo-blogs, The Big Picture. I’ll post the second half very soon (as soon as I finish it).

Additionally, I put together a list of my favorite albums from 2010, here.
