When I received this mix I wasn't sure what to expect, especially as I hadn't heard of a lot of the songs.



One listen and I realised exactly why the songs had been chosen. I'm so impressed that [livejournal.com profile] kuperkeikka managed to capture the feel of the story through music, especially in a pinch hit. I've listened multiple times now, and on every listen I picture Ryan and Mikey's journey. Especially Mikey's, how he sunk so low before struggling to pull himself up.

I fell in love with In Front of Me by Infected Mushroom, and it's the stand out song to me.

Why can't I see what's in front of me (x2)
I see the doors that I can't open
Adding locks from time to time
When it opens something blocks me,
and I'm asking myself why
Did I take the steps I wanted?
Was it just a state of mind
I feel sorry for myself everytime I close my eyes



To me, that's when Mikey's at his lowest point. He's made bad decisions and as hard as he's trying he can't make things better.

But then the mix progresses, and each song picks up a point in the story, and does so in such a way that it feels natural and right

I loved this mix so much. Thank you [livejournal.com profile] kuperkeikka. For taking the time to create such a fitting, gorgeous mix that's introduced me to new music to enjoy.

I adored your story, and was really sad because I didn't have more time to come up with the mix, it might've been a bit better if I had had the time. But I'm glad you liked the mix! Thank you for the amazing story :)

That you managed to create such an excellent mix on the short time you had amazed me. So don't worry about about it not being as good as it could have been, because I love it a lot. Also, have listened to it a lot.

Thank you! Both for creating something for me, and for your comment about the story.
