There’s something about a culmination of a years accomplishments that brings out seldom seen character traits in humans. We make resolutions to live better, eat better, strive for everything closer to what we deem as perfection. The first of January marks a mental milestone for many folks around the world with good intentions. If you choose to live your life the way you did the previous day – more power to you. For the folks who strive for a change, best of luck in maintaining the resolution but lets not let one day of the year strive for us to grow. 2011 was amazing but 2012 has much to teach.

With that out of the way, here’s a 16 track compilation for you to get fitted for an epic evening with family and friends, for you to throw up and swear for change the next morning, for you to reflect and rebirth. Just a little taste of 2011 and what’s in my iTunes. Get it here.
