This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.

“If you see yourself creating something - art, cooking, music, writing, acting, dancing - I would suggest (to those who are not faint of heart) that doing a little bit daily is very helpful and incredibly empowering.”
Here's the 12th instalment of the bi-weekly Mixcloud series where I go back to the iTunes organizational system I had setup when I used to run a 24/7 internet radio station, and then I shuffle up a selection of 95-tracks that have been rated as 'Mix Tape Radio approved' and put together an 18-track HI54 Mixed CD.
A monthly playlist for the Soundcloud-linked submissions that get approved on Submithub for a HI54 Mix CD feature during the month of March 2021.
Since I'm on the road / away from last Thursday to this Monday, I figured I’d postpone putting together a new HI54 YEARBOOK MIX and instead upload another "lost episode" from back in the day when I was making mixes for Folk Radio UK. So here’s a taste of my headphones from December 2013 \m/

“Listened to this album on a Sunday evening driving through downtown LA during a pandemic. Cool air breezing through the car, sunset in the back, feeling spiritually elevated. That's how this album makes me feel and will forever make me feel.”
Episode 175 of The Mix Tape Radio Show features 8 gems pulled from my personal Bandcamp Collection - ft. Alastair Ottesen, Twig Palace, The Caretaker, Le Ren + a bunch more Available-on-Bandcamp-flavoured headphone goodness (ps: this Friday, February 5th is another special ‘Bandcamp Friday’).

“If we don’t individually start taking time out of our busy days to practice tuning out all the outside noise, we’re never going to collectively see the same forest from the trees, and they’re going to keep on grifting us until we’ve got nothing left to grift.”
“Incredible work like always. Serious head nodder. Boom bap married with the ill flows.”
