Indie Affinity: Mixtape No.2

For this winter inspired mix, I took a slightly different route, using more electronic music than the previous acoustic guitar-filled mix. The following is a collaboration of tranquil yet unexpectedly upbeat songs. The warm tone to this collection makes it ideal for listening to when staying indoors during this chilly holiday season. To me, these tracks represent the state of euphoria everyone is in as the temperature drops and the holidays near. My aim was to relate to that specific emotion and I hope it’s evident in my selections. Enjoy…
