EPISODE 104 | THE MIX TAPE RADIO SHOW

Episode 104 kicks off with a stroll thru the blues, and before backs are arched and things fade to you, there’ll be some Allen Toussaint, Faye Webster, Lady Lamb, Frog and a whole bunch more audio niceness to treat your ears with. So grab the headphones & meet me over at the play button for pick-up.

The Mix Tape Radio Show is a series of digital mix tapes that I’ve been putting together on Mixcloud for more than a few sporadic years; sometimes there were new episodes every 2nd week, sometimes there was nothing for months. Having a music blog is sketch like that.

But all that really matters is that the show manages to keep on keeping on, and because of that keeping on, episode number 104 is sitting right here, ready for you to press the ‘play’ button…

…because as inconsistent as the mix tape posting schedule could sometimes get over the years, the quality of the music featured on every episode has never been in question. At least not by me (and I’m basically just talking out loud to myself here, so…).

I mean, just check the individual goodness of Episode 104’s playable track listing below if you’re feeling sceptical enough that you haven’t already started listening to the full mix tape yet.


Episode 104's Playable Track Listing


As always… if you find your ears enjoying what they’re hearing, there are 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. Neither would be hitting the ‘follow’ button on this huge archive playlist of every track that’s ever been featured on an episode of The Mix Tape Radio Show (well, all those available on Spotify).

ALSO: HI54LOFI was accepted in the Mixcloud Select program, 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 (my plan is to start doing at least on mix tape a week & I’ll probably do some exclusive ‘themed’ mixes for subscribers if/when that happens).

And finally… if you hear something you like in the latest episode (or just in general out on the internets today), make sure to check out the artists further and show them a little bit of love / support / appreciation — because everybody wins if we all start sharing some more metaphorical coffees/beers.
