ARCHIVES | MIX TAPE RADIO on FRUK - EPISODE 026
Since the week between Christmas and New Years Eve kinda feels like a chunk of days that don't actually exist/count, and because I'm currently knee-deep in trying to wrap-up my End Of Year posts for later this week, I figured I would post one more "lost episode" from back in the day when I was making mix tapes for Folk Radio UK and there was a 13 episode stretch where MTR episodes got posted on the FRUK Mixcloud page instead of the HI54LOFI one.
So I hope you enjoy this headphone jump back in time (all the way back to December 2013) & I hope you have as happy of a whatever is left of this holiday season as is possible given all the heaviness hanging around the air these day…
…and then I should get back to the usual mix tape / mix cd making schedule in the New Year.
Episode 026's Playable Track Listing
If you find your ears enjoying what they’re hearing, there’s some pretty decent odds that following HI54LOFI over on Mixcloud for future/more episodes would not be the worst use of one of your internet clicks today (and new episodes will return on the weekly next week/next year).
And if you ever want to shuffle thru every track that’s ever been played on an MTR episode (well, all the tracks currently available on Spotify – which is still A LOT) you can do so at anytime OVER HERE +++++ PLUS, if you’d like to extend the ‘soundtrack-by-mixtape’ vibes all day, I hi54lofi-ly recommend you go press the play button over on MOUN.TOWN/AM (which is a mountain town “collaboration” project I am currently doing with myself — but more importantly it’ll play one HI54 mix tape after another all day for you once you press play).
ALSO also: HI54LOFI was accepted into the Mixcloud Select program a little while ago, which means you can now support the making of these mix tapes & the artists included on them with a monthly subscription — if you’d be interested in something like that (or nobody would be mad at you if you’d prefer to make a one-time “thanks for the stuff” donation of your choice to HI54LOFI over here instead, or even if you just told someone else that they might like what they’d find over on the ol’ HI54.BLOG… that stuff helps too!).
And, final finally… if you hear something you like in this episode (or just in general out on the internets today), make sure to check out the people making the stuff you like out further and show them a little bit of love / support / appreciation (in whatever ways you can) — because everybody wins if we all start sharing some more metaphorical coffees/beers/cheers with the people making the things that make things a little bit better (and maybe start giving a little less to the people out there trying to keep things shitty). Every little bit counts.
