Music

Most people like music. Some people love music. I am obsessed with music. I’ve been making mixes since 7th grade, and in 1999, Sensei dubbed these compilations “Baa Mixes.” Here are some old mixes, along with a few soundcloud/youtube links for your enjoyment. You can find my newest musical choices on my Instagram page: @sabaatahir

Summer 2018: Baa Mix 92 and 93

And to make up for my lateness, here is an extra-long Baa Mix 92 and BONUS, Baa Mix 93. Fave songs include “Turn” and  “Pray For Me” off 92 and “Higher Ground” off 93. Enjoyyyyyyy.

AN AURAL ALTERNATIVE: BAA MIX 88

Ah, yes, fall in California, a time of endless raking, ridiculous drinks, and an overuse of sweaters in weather that doesn’t really merit it. And yet I still love it. Mostly because fall is when all the BEST albums come out.

Looking at this now, I realize that it’s a bit dude-heavy. Sorry. I also left off Glass Animals, tho I do like their new one. But you all know about that album, judging from the number of people who have mentioned it to me, so hopefully you don’t mind.

If you listen to one song–War, by Nas.[su_expand more_text=”See Playlist” less_text=”Read less” height=”0″ link_color=”#ffffff” more_icon=”icon: chevron-down” less_icon=”icon: chevron-up”]

1. Nas Feat Raye: War (I mean, it’s Nas, what else do you want.)
2. Kings of Leon: Waste a Moment  (Caleb’s voice aaaaaaaa *dies*)
3. 888: Crucial Mistakes (Great Video. Very early-2010s anthem rock, but I like.)
4. Colter Wall: Sleeping on the Blacktop  (Nobody says “moon” like Colter Wall)
5. Grouplove: Good Morning (Why is everything they do so great? Total Laia song.)
6. Atlas Genius: A Perfect End 
7. Atlas Genius: Molecules
8. Tkay: Carry on (feat Killer Mike)
9. Garbage: Push It  (Ok, this is a 20-year old song, and I blame Jay Kristoff for getting the 90s back into my head, but whatever, Shirley was Queen before everyone else and this has aged so well. Video is really weeeird. )
10. Taking Back Sunday: Tidal Wave  (V. old school TBS)
11. Snow Patrol: Mysterious Ways cover (One of my very old favorites, particularly while I was writing AEITA, but it’s popping up again for Book 3. I might like this one better than the original b/c it’s so much sexier. From 3:08 on is perfection…)
12. Lecrae & Leon Bridges: On My Own (Yessss)
13. Rag’n’Bone Man: Human  (Got this from the trailer for 13th.)
14. Sylvan Esso: Radio  (This song is utterly ridiculous and yet strangely catchy.)
15. Daughter: Numbers (*Swoons* )
16. Dirty Heads: Sound of Change (Very addictive, this one.)
17. Silversun Pickups: Nightlight
18. Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness: Fire Escape (Also very Anthem-y, but Andrew is a F-ing badass, so that’s cool.)
19. Yelawolf: Daylight  (The hook on this, dayum)
20. Judah & The Lion: Take It All Back (This one grew on me.)
21. The Lumineers: Angela (This one definitely builds to something, but it’s worth the wait.)
22. Anthony Green: You’ll Be Fine (I loved this song, so I watched the video, which was meh. Then at 1:56, it changed and suddenly I related to it about 1000 times more. Probably like 4 people will agree with me, but that’s ok.)
23. Circa Survive: Drain You (Nirvana Cover)
24. OneRepublic: Kids  (Not loving the new album, but this is solid)
25. Martin Phipps & BBC National Orchestra of Wales (War & Peace): Andrei  (Ugggh, this part of the miniseries was SO SAD so naturally I found the soundtrack.)
26. Chris Stapleton: Outlaw State of Mind  (Currently my Book 3 Theme song ha ha ha)

SUMMER ROADTRIP MIX: BAA MIX 87

There is nothing like listening to a new mix right as you set out on an adventure. If you’re going to listen to one song, then it’s a tie between Fiction and There Will Be Time (Live in South Africa version, plz) because both are incredible. In fact actually, the whole Kygo album is great so just get it. Oh and the new Grouplove is pretty great.[su_expand more_text=”See Playlist” less_text=”Read less” height=”0″ link_color=”#ffffff” more_icon=”icon: chevron-down” less_icon=”icon: chevron-up”]

1. Kygo Feat. Tom Odell: Fiction (OB-SESSED. But annoyingly, this is just a snippet, and it’s not on youtube, so you’ll have to trust me that it’s amazing.)
2. Grouplove: Welcome to Your Life
3. Mumford and Sons & Baaba Maal: There Will Be Time (This is the M&S I know and love)
4. DREAMERS: Sweet Disaster
5. The Middle East: Blood
6. Sigur Ros: Ovedur (Jonsi ily you amazing man. Also if watching the video and you want to skip the first two weird minutes, you won’t miss any of the song..it starts around the 2 min mark. )
7. FIDLAR: Sabotage (Cover, but oh what a cover.)
8. Carter Burwell: Trees Have a Life (I have loved this instrumental piece since 2000, when I first heard it in Before Night Falls. But I’ve never been able to find audio of it that I can download to iTunes, which is really frustrating. If anyone knows where I can get an mp3 of it PLEASE TELL ME)
9. Kaleo: Way Down We Go
10. Brand New: I am a Nightmare
11. Juicy J, Wiz Khalifa and TM88: Bossed Up
12. Death Cab for Cutie: Good Help (Is So Hard to Find) (How do they keep making such amazing music after so many years.)
13. Kygo Feat. James Vincent: I’m in Love
14. American Authors: Right Here Right Now
15. Good Charlotte: Life Can’t Get Much Better
16. The Head and the Heart: All We Ever Knew
17. Twenty one pilots: heathens
18. Indigo Girls: Galileo  Horrible video but just listen to the audio on it
19. DMX: Blood Red
20. The Naked and the Famous: Higher
21. Austin Jones: Welcome to the Black Parade (acapella) Don’t listen to a lot of acapella, but this is a pretty interesting rendition of one of my fav songs.
22. My Heart Borns: Dug My Heart  I didn’t love this one at first, but it grew on me.

BAA MIX 86: WINTER/SPRING 2016

I was in the writing cave for the past 8 months or so, so while I was listening to music, I never had the time to put it all in one post. So this is a weird hybrid mix of stuff I’ve listened to during that time, divided into Winter and Spring.

If you’re going to listen to one song—Water by Ra Ra Riot. Favorite line is from “Shovels & Dirt” by the Strumbellas: “I gotta a head full of darkness and darkness is good.”[su_expand more_text=”See Playlist” less_text=”Read less” height=”0″ link_color=”#ffffff” more_icon=”icon: chevron-down” less_icon=”icon: chevron-up”]

WINTER 2015

1. Ra Ra Riot: Water (This was my theme song all the way through the end of writing TORCH)
2. Bob Moses: Tearing Me Up (Another TORCH theme song!)
3. Bishop: River (OK THEY ARE ALL TORCH THEME SONGS WHAT.)
4. Farro: On a Wire
5. Grimes: Venus Fly (feat. Janelle Monae)
6. Grimes: Kill V. Maim (This. Song. Is. Life.)
7. Beach Slang: Bad Art and Weirdo Ideas
8. Julien Baker: Something (sobs)
9. A$AP Rocky: Everyday (Just ignore the fact that Rod Stewart is in this song and it’s so great)
10. Vance Joy: Mess is Mine
11. The Lumineers: Ophelia (very sing-able)

SPRING 2016

1. Freedom Fry: Smells Like Teen Spirit (Thank you KCRW).
2. Marvin Gaye: Sexual Healing (Kygo Remix)   (I don’t know why I love this song, but I absolutely blame April Tucholke and Maggie Thrash.)
3. Bon Jovi: Living on a Prayer (Teaching the kids to air guitar and this seemed fitting for instruction, and then I remembered how great it was so here it is)
4. Rae Sremmurd: Look Alive
5. The Strumbellas: Shovel & Dirt
6. The Strumbellas: Spirits
7. The Brinks: Temporary Love
8. Boosie Badazz & C-Murder: God, I’m Sorry (A man’s convo with God.)
9. Lewis Del Mar: Malt Liquor (So obsessed with this song)
10. School of Seven Bells: Open Your Eyes (The back story to this whole album is so damn sad.)
11. Basia Bulat: La La Lie
12. The Young Wild: Not a One
13. Fitz & the Tantrums: Handclap
14. Miike Snow: Ghengis Khan (Obviously)
15. Beyonce: Formation
16. Oasis: Champagne Supernova (Idk, I just remembered it and then started listening to it obsessively exactly like in 9th grade. Weird time warp. Also, this video is so horribly 90s OMG. )

[/su_expand]

BAA MIX 85: FALL/WINTER 2015

Woo! Fall and Winter Mix! A lot of songs that build to magnificence on this one, including “Hello”, “Devil’s Whisper” and “Seven Hours”.   And new Joanna Newsom, yes! I always learn new words when I listen to her.

Let’s see, if you listen to one song, it should definitely be Adele, but as most of the planet has listened to that song, my second choice would be “Male Gaze.” Wait…no, it would be “Sitcom.” Actually, no Magnets. STOP MAKING ME CHOOSE.  Ok, ok, final answer…..Devil’s Whisper. B/c it’s different and awesome.[su_expand more_text=”See Playlist” less_text=”Read less” height=”0″ link_color=”#ffffff” more_icon=”icon: chevron-down” less_icon=”icon: chevron-up”]

1. Adele: Hello (or, Hallo, as she so charmingly croons it. If you haven’t seen it, WHAT ARE YOU DOING.)
2. Borns: American Money (lyrics are a little basic, but it’s smooooth).
3. Borns: The Emotion (oh the angst.)
4. The Zolas: Male Gaze (The Zolas can do no wrong, imho)
5. Raury: Friends (this video looks like it was a blast to make)
6. Raury: Devil’s Whisper (OMG when that bass kicks in at 2:23, holy wow.)
7. Wolf Alice: Moaning Lisa Smile (Video is awesome)
8. Firekid: Magic Mountain (Is he talking about the theme park? That’s what I think of…)
9. Forest Blakk: Love Me (Love Me)   (Couldn’t find this one on youtube either, or soundcloud, but I promise it’s good. Not my usual jam, but it spoke very powerfully to one of the characters in TORCH. Reminds me a lot of “Reverse” by SomeKindaWonderful)
10. Baio: Sister of Pearl  (This original vid is so awkward that I put in the KCRW live version, which is quite stunning in its own right.)
11. Joanna Newsom: Leaving the City
12. Nothing But Thieves: Wake Up Call (The hook on this is surprising compared to the rest of the song and I love it.)
13. Seinabo Sey: Younger (Kygo Remix) Though the original is great too.
14. FFS: Police Encounters (This band is just so fun)
15. Coleman Hell: Sitcom (couldn’t find a vid or soundcloud for this one, but trust me, it’s good.)
16. Jack’s Mannequin: My Racing Thoughts
17. LCD Soundsytem: I Can Change (This is an old favorite. Weird, yet strangely compelling)
18. Blondfire: Pleasure
19. Little May: Seven Hours. (Builds to an incredible ending.)
20. Magnets ft. Lorde: Magnets

[/su_expand]

BAA MIX 84: FALL 2015

I threw this one together, so it’s not as well organized as usual. Reflects the chaos of life, I guess. This is what I’ve been listening to over the summer and what I’ll be listening to this fall. Comments in parentheses.

It’s killing me that I can’t listen to any of the new stuff off the Zolas EP yet, but sooooon, and at least there is Molotov Girls (which is on Mix 83, if you are interested, which you should be, b/c it is fantastic.)[su_expand more_text=”See Playlist” less_text=”Read less” height=”0″ link_color=”#ffffff” more_icon=”icon: chevron-down” less_icon=”icon: chevron-up”]

1. The Neighborhood: R.I.P. to my Youth (ha ha ha)

10. Motion City Soundtrack: Lose Control

13. Meg Myers: Lemon Eyes (I am obsessed witht his one.)
14. Banners: Shine a Light

16. Wiz Khalifa: Slow Burn

[/su_expand]

BAA MIX 83: SUMMER 2015

I couldn’t sleep last night, so then this happened. No hip-hop on this one, I’m sad to say, but lots of very scrumptious indie, and, of course, a little Taylor on the side. I might have added some commentary this time.

Every mix has one song you MUST LISTEN TO. This time it’s This Wild Life’s cover of Sleepwalking, which is phenomenal, esp. if you know and love the original. Links attached, as usual.

Fav line from The Zolas (as usual): So tired of being told to keep polite, this is called being alive.[su_expand more_text=”See Playlist” less_text=”Read less” height=”0″ link_color=”#ffffff” more_icon=”icon: chevron-down” less_icon=”icon: chevron-up”]

1. The Zolas: Molotov Girls (I’m obsessed with this one.)
2. Bring Me the Horizon: Sleepwalking (see next.)
3. This Wild Life: Sleepwalking (cover of the BMTH version. Love the original, but holy cats this one is beautiful.)
4. Painted Palms: Disintegrate (if you don’t at least tap your feed to that bass, then you must not have a pulse.)

6. Twenty One Pilots: Stressed Out (Oh adulthood. You are here, and I don’t like you.)
7. Girlpool: Ideal World
8. Born Cages: Don’t Look Back
9. The Karma Killers: My Killer Queen (angst.)
10. Sundara Karma: Flame (album cover is so creepy. song is great.)
11. Pretty City: Melt (LOVE this one.)
12. FFS: Johnny Delusional (this song is hilarious but also really sad. every time i hear the ‘paging johnny delusional’ part, i start cracking up.)
13. FFS: Piss Off (my husband’s theme song for me as I write book 2)
14. Tove Lo: Like Em Young (Get it, Tove Lo.)
15. BØRNS: Electric Love (This one is so addictive and fun—you’ll find yourself dancing. Video is whatever.)
16. San Fermin: Jackrabbit
17. Passion Pit: Until We Can’t (Let’s Go)
18. All Time Low: Satellite
19. Matt and Kim: Can You Blame Me (there’s a long speech at the beginning of this video, but video itself is worth it.)
20. Mumford and Sons: The Wolf (Still like their older stuff better, but this isn’t terrible.)
21. Hozier: Work Song (Been wanting to work this onto a mix for like, a year. Finally shoved it onto this one. Also, possibly one of my favorite videos ever.)
22. Taylor Swift: Bad Blood (If you don’t like this song, you are lame. It’s KENDRICK LAMAR AND TAYLOR SWIFT, FOR GOD’S SAKE.)

[/su_expand]

BAA MIX 82: SPRING 2015

Managed to squeeze this in before EMBER launches. It will be the last one until summer, I think, which is why it’s so massive. 😀 I love everything on here, of course, but favs are Vagabond, Hide, A Beginning Song and Prisoner 1&2.

BAA MIX 81: WINTER 2015

Lots of people asking me for a new mix, but I’m suddenly short on time. 🙁  Boo, hiss! Anyway, I threw this one together based on the last few weeks/months of listening. Resilience, revolution and plenty of angst. Notes: George Ezra’s voice is SO UNFAIR. The way he delivers the hook on “Did you Hear the Rain”? Wow.

Enjoy![su_expand more_text=”See Playlist” less_text=”Read less” height=”0″ link_color=”#ffffff” more_icon=”icon: chevron-down” less_icon=”icon: chevron-up”]

BAA MIX 80: FALL 2014 (PART II)

Julian! Lupe! Andrew! Cold War Kids! Theophilus! IT’S TOO MUCH GREATNESS. *Swoons*

Fav line of this mix is from the Zolas’ song Strange Girl.  “I know you oh so well/since we were 15/so well I feel my joints/when your weather’s shifting.”

But if you’re going to listen to one song on here, let it be the spectacular musical chaos of “Where No Eagles Fly” because WOW. (Oh, and “Tribe”. For the love of God, listen to “Tribe.” That’s two. I know, I’m cheating.)

P.S. The video for “Where No Eagles Fly” is not so good, what with the fake blood and the creepy close-ups and the 80s effects. But the music is YES.[su_expand more_text=”See Playlist” less_text=”Read less” height=”0″ link_color=”#ffffff” more_icon=”icon: chevron-down” less_icon=”icon: chevron-up”]

1. Theophilus London/Jesse Boykins III—Tribe
2. Kasabian—Eez-Eh
3. Wiz Khalifa—Promises
4. Cold War Kids–First
5. Julian Casablancas—Where No Eagles Fly (From about the halfway point on is basically one of the best things I’ve heard EVER EVER EVER IN MY LIFE.)
6. In the Valley Below—Lover
7. In the Valley Below—Dove Season
8. Iggy Azalea—Walk the Line
9. Broods—Mother and Father
10. Bear’s Den—Above the Clouds of Pompeii (Warning: If you listen to this song closely, it might make you sad.)

12. Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness—Cecilia and the Satellite (About his daughter, SO SWEET.)
13. Lupe Fiasco/Jennifer Hudson—Remission (This song. Oh this song. Created for Stand Up to Cancer, so GO BUY IT. Original is great too.)
