3am Mixtapes: Episode Two: Driving at Dusk

Hey look, it's another episode of 3am Revelations' very own podcast!

Each week on 3am Mixtapes, I will present to you, in my dulcet tones, the Top Six Songs of a certain subject. The topics can be as broad and vague and Best Drinking Songs, or they can be as obscure and specific as Best Songs by People Named Matt.

This week, I was thinking about driving songs. There are plenty of "roadtrip mixes", for speeding down a highway on bright and sunny days, but what about other times? So this week, I give you the Top Six Songs To Listen To While Driving at Dusk. You know, when the sun is just setting, but it's still warm enough for your window to be rolled down, and you are just cruisin' along.

Featured on this weeks podcast is:

"Welcome Ghost" by Explosions in the Sky
"La Façade" by Karkwa
"Bring It On" by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
"Come and See" by Young Galaxy
"Hearts Trompet" by Brasstronaut
"Chasing the Sunset" by Imaginary Cities
