It's a Sight to Behold


I've been itching to travel lately. My hopefully planned trip/volunteer experience to Uganda is still up in the air and I just wish a decision could be made soon. I watched this video and was completely absorbed in all the rich colors as well as the culture of this beautiful country. When I do happen to begin my travels, considering on the destination, my playlists would have to suffice. Who better to serenade me than Devendra Banhart?

Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself..


I should apologize for my absence, it's been much too long. Alas, here I am again and ready to spill. I've been obliged to share my mixes I've worked on recently. Although this is not necessarily a substantial mix and may not have much significance to anyone else, this is the music I've relied on lately to get me through my busy days. And when I'm sitting anxiously awaiting for the subway to whisk me away in the late hours, I have something lovely to accompany me on my long wait.

Most of these tunes are relatively new and fresh off the hypeworthy totem pole. An essential piece to this mix is Young the Giant. They have finally released their self-titled album today and it's safe for me to say that it's one of my favorite albums of the year. I expect an exquisitely beautiful future for these fine men.

So here it is, a special mix from me to you.


Time To Wander - Gypsy & The Cat
Strings - Young The Giant
Headspace - We Barbarians
Coming Around - Hungry Kids Of Hungary
Lucidity - Tame Impala
Young Blood - The Naked And Famous
Rill Rill - Sleigh Bells
Bodysnatchers - Radiohead
Plane Temp - Glasser
Out, Don't.. - Gauntlet Hair
Masters In China - Priscilla Ahn
And If My Heart Should Somehow Stop - James Vincent McMorrow

Enjoy,
R. Dearlove
