Mixtapes
I tend to make mixtapes a lot. I've been in this group on last.fm for a few years where I make mixtapes every month and I recently joined a similar style group on livejournal. I thought it'd nice to put all my mixetapes in one place because they always seem to get deleted on itunes. It's really more for myself so I have one place to keep them all organized, but feel free to download.

Too Beautiful..
About: The prompt for this mix was about sex. It kind of tells a story of people who meet dancing or already know each other and they're not really supposed to be together, but they do anyway. At the end, at least one of them thinks they went too far and feels they made a mistake. So it's kind of about a forbidden love, but I guess you can get whatever you want out of it. I found that I had more songs that could relate to sex than I thought.
