EPISODE 121 | THE MIX TAPE RADIO SHOW

In search of a routine more likely to get a new HI54 Mix Tape out the door every week, I started combining my mix tape making with my HI54 Mix CD updating near the end of 2019 and I’ll be damned if it didn’t turn out to be one those rare “good ideas” that actually turned out to be a good idea… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ … maybe the rumours are true and one does get better at things if they just keep plugging along?

MTR - EPISODE 121

 {a ‘Twenty10s-Flavoured’ episode}
See this content in the original post

Episode 121 was created while shuffling around in HI54’s recently put together new end-of-decade mix cd ‘HI54… THE 2010s’ — which is a Spotify playlist I keep stocked with 95 sweet tracks from 2010 to 2019 that I’ve liked at some point over my years of music blogging. It not meant to be an attempt at picking “the best”, I just shuffle up some archive likes and put together something that sounds nice top to bottom or shuffled up (so follow on Spotify or Soundsgood for future updates/extended listening).

So press play on the player above or jump over to Mixcloud— and make sure to have a browse thru the listenable/clickable track listing below (as odds are 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 (tend to share things like the above on the regular-ish)…

…and it probably wouldn’t be a bad idea to follow/shuffle thru the rest of the ‘HI54… THE 2010s’ Mix CD that this week’s Mix Tape 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 2010s-vibes on the full 95 track 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/AM (which is a mountain town “collaboration” project I am currently doing with myself).

ALSO also: HI54LOFI was recently accepted into 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 (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).

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 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.
