About the playlist: “I grew up in Central California, though my parents moved up into the mountains 40 minutes away from my hometown a few years ago. It is insanely beautiful and peaceful, and I really enjoy visiting my parents up there. Whenever I spend time with them, it turns into a taco and scotch fueled romp filled with tons of laughter and sarcasm. It is important to note that I really hate flying and get super nervous at take-off and landing; The only thing that consistently helps distract me is loud, fast, punk rock. But once I make it up the mountain, the relaxation begins.”

About the playlist: “On a seemingly endless journey from Eugene to San Francisco, a new friend and I relied on music to get us through the trip. It wasn’t long until we found that we had similar music tastes, turning the ride into a delightful exchange of songs and stories. Through rain, snow and sunshine, we reminisced on hip hop classics and our favorite reggae jams, sharing new beats along the way.”
