In search of a routine more likely to get a new mix together for MTR - FRESH TAPES rotations on the weekly (back when I was doing a stretch of “a new Mixcloud mix EVERY week!” ambitions), I started mixing my mix tape making headphone time with my mix cd playlist shuffle updating headspace near the end of 2019 and I’ll be damned if it didn’t turn out to be one those rare “this seems like a good idea” ideas that actually turned out to be a good idea (as far as getting new mixes out the door every week goes)… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ … perhaps I need to look into bringing back some kind of version of this idea back here in whatever year it is now.

But, for now:

MTR: EPISODE 117

 {a ‘Winter-Flavoured’ episode}
See this content in the original post

Episode 117 was created while shuffling around in the ongoing HI54 Mix CD ‘HIGH FIVE FOR… WINTER’ — which is a Spotify playlist I keep stocked with 95 tracks/artists that pair nicely with that time of year when the days are both shorter and colder (so follow on Spotify for future updates/extended listening) — because, not sure what the weather is looking like outside your window right now, but up here in the mountains of Canada… it’s beginning to feel a lot like Winter.

So press play on the player above or jump over to Mixcloud (or tune into the MOUN.TOWN/RADIO ‘SIDE A’ player for a string of HI54 mix tapes playing one-after-the-other ALL DAY, including this one) AND make sure to have a browse thru the listenable/clickable track listing below — odds are pretty good that there’ll be a track/artist or two that your ears are gonna want to spend more time with:

If you find yourself enjoying any of the above, there are some pretty decent odds that following HI54LOFI out on the internets would not be the worst use of one of your internet clicks today (I tend to share things like the above on the regular-ish… so maybe we operate on similar wavelengths?)…

…and it probably wouldn’t be too bad of an idea to follow/shuffle thru the rest of the ‘HIGH FIVE FOR… WINTER’ Mix CD that this week’s Mix Tape Radio Show episode was pulled from, because something tells me if you liked the 8 songs featured in the latest MTR episode, chances are good you’ll probably like the extended Winter-vibes on the full Spotify playlist.

And speaking of extended listening vibes, 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/RADIO (which’ll play one HI54 Mixcloud mix after another, ALL DAY — with new/old HI54 Mixcloud mixes like the mix tape above added to the front of both the ‘MTR - SIDE A’ and ‘MTR - SIDE B’ players every Wednesday).

ALSO: HI54LOFI is 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 (while also unlocking offline listening of hundreds of HI54 mix tapes for yourself) — y’know, if you’d be interested in something like that (or nobody would be mad at you if you wanted to make a one-time “thanks for the stuff” donation of your choice to HI54LOFI over here, 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 latest episode (or just in general out on the internets today), make sure to check out the people making the stuff you like 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 we can also start giving way less to the people out there always trying to keep things shitty?).

Put good things in, good things come out.

Put good things out, good things come in.

Put good things on loop.
