Episode #6: Late Night

Well, this mix is straightforward mood music. I simply chose songs that for some reason or another connoted the idea of being awake late at night and being in a pensive mood. That said, this is not a late night mix in the tradition of getting a second wind and partying into the wee hours of the morning. This late night mix is one of a more reflective, relaxed mood – a winding down of sorts. While it may be somewhat down-tempo, the songs here are no less powerful or poignant. And what better time to listen to such music than late at night, when the busyness of the day has subsided and you really have a chance to listen, both to the music and yourself.

Give it a listen and enjoy.
