\"\"<\/a>20 years ago, during my sophomore year of high school, I put together the first of what would become a nearly 20 volume collection of mix tapes, containing my favorite songs that I had gathered either from the radio, a cassette tape, or (eventually) CD. We last looked back at all 20 volumes three years ago<\/a> to see which of my “favorite” songs still resonated in today’s digital world. Today, we revisit those mix tapes and see how, or if, things have changed in the past 3 years.<\/p>\n

Volume 13 takes us into late spring of 1994 and my the end of my sophomore year of college. The song selection is now mostly completely\u00a0alternative, with just one or\u00a0two\u00a0hip-hop hits to go along with it., with a little pop and Aerosmith on the side.<\/p>\n
