If you’re one of those students who is super stoked to be heading back to class, check out Side A of this mixtape. This compilation is full of good vibes and upbeat tunes that’ll have you rocking so hard in class the professor will ask you to leave.
If you’re craving some good music, but also like to experience an angsty funk often associated with the end of summer, see Side B. There’s a few strong, angry tunes to blast if you’re frustrated with something (essays), and also more mellow tunes with a bunch of minor chords to sooth your mind during homework-flooded nights.
