“Listening, reading, looking at stuff, even when it’s not related to your practice/your approach, is crucial in nourishing a singular creative process. We are largely made of the relations and the inclinations that have moved us in the course of our trajectory, so better be open and constantly search for great connections.”
“Kool Keith is in the zone on this one. L'Orange has been in the zone for years. Nothing but win.”
A monthly playlist for the Soundcloud-linked submissions that get approved on Submithub for a HI54 Mix CD feature during the month of January 2022.
“Every Fog Lake album is the best album, but this one might be the best of the best.”

In an attempt to free up some headspace for other work during these last couple weeks of October, I’ll be taking a break from creating new Mixcloud mixes EVERY Thursday and instead will be sharing some old mixes that were posted to Mixcloud before HI54.BLOG even existed. This one goes back to March 2012 :)
