The Songs

1. Album cover for Back to School Shuffle
"Portions for Foxes" - Rilo Kiley (Back to School Shuffle, 2004)

A brisk indie-rock cut with a sharp hook and a restless undercurrent.

2. Album cover for Like, Omigod! The '80s Pop Culture Box (Totally) (Disc 1)
"Let My Love Open the Door" - Pete Townshend (Like, Omigod! The '80s Pop Culture Box (Totally) (Disc 1), 2002)

A cheerful power-pop favorite with a singalong chorus and a classic lightweight feel.

3. Album cover for Lost and Gone Forever
"Barrel Of A Gun" - Guster (Lost and Gone Forever, 1999)

A jangly college-rock track that keeps its momentum up with steady guitar lines.

4. Album cover for World On The Ground
"I’ll Be Gone" - Sarah Jarosz (World On The Ground, 2020)

A spare, rootsy ballad that leans on clear vocals and acoustic detail.

5. Album cover for Holy Roller
"Bad Reputation" - Reverend Horton Heat (Holy Roller, 1999)

A fast, tongue-in-cheek cover that pushes the song into a rougher rockabilly edge.

6.
"Slack Motherfucker" - Superchunk (Superchunk, 1999)

A noisy, DIY-style punk song with a blunt title and a quick punch.

7. Album cover for Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) [Expanded Edition]
"Da Mystery of Chessboxin'" - Wu-Tang Clan (Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) [Expanded Edition], 1993)

A dense East Coast hip-hop track built on sharp verses and tight production.

8. Album cover for DGC Rarities Vol. 1
"Einstein on the Beach (For an Eggman)" - Counting Crows (DGC Rarities Vol. 1, 1994)

A loose, playful alt-rock rarity with the kind of offbeat charm that suited mid-’90s compilations.

9. Album cover for One Fierce Beer Coaster
"Why's Everybody Always Pickin' On Me?" - Bloodhound Gang (One Fierce Beer Coaster, 1996)

A sarcastic novelty-leaning alt-rock song that mixes humor with a nagging chorus.

10. Album cover for Psychedelices
"Mademoiselle Juliette" - Alizee (Psychedelices)

A French pop track with glossy production and a bright, danceable pulse.

11. Album cover for One Cell In the Sea
"Think of You" - A Fine Frenzy (One Cell In the Sea, 2008)

A polished piano-driven pop song that settles into a reflective mood.

12. Album cover for The Wind
"Keep Me In Your Heart" - Warren Zevon (The Wind, 2003)

A gentle farewell song, recorded near the end of Zevon’s life, with a plainspoken emotional weight.
