I’m walking the streets at 2 A.M. Crimson clouds huddle around the building tops. And the silhouettes of ships blot the already-smoky air.

I’m tempted to just put up Burial’s entire Untrue tracklist. But, believe it or not, there are some other songs that are pretty good for walking through a city late at night. Not as good, but pretty good. By the time you get to the end of the mixtape, it’s almost light out, so you might as well start your day/hit the sack and give up on morning with a brighter mood than you had at 2 A.M.
