hwæt! moody mittwoch mixes

It's been a rough week with anger and sadness rolling through in waves, so, as I have done before, I focused on channeling those emotions into musical mixes.

First, hwæt! she’s looking down with sadness... Sometimes when the world seems full of muck and it feels like a great portion of humanity lets you down, you want to listen to some beautifully sad songs, so here are a baker's dozen of tunes for just that...
