First of all, I always forget how much A Separate Peace is one of my favourite books. So when I saw
josephinestone was doing a fic for this fandom over on
smallfandombang I couldn't pass up the opportunity. I really love the fic that came out of this, which you can find
here and I'm so glad I got to make
this mix. I challenged myself to make a mix that sounded like it came out of the early 1940s to match the setting, and with some artistic license in terms of period (as well as several vintage arrangements of 21st-century hits) I think it worked out. Also, you'll notice I drew the cover art as well; usually I do digital covers but I felt inspired to draw the boys being angsty so that happened. Hope you like it!
