This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
All in QUICK HITS
SO MANY CAROLINES | #HI54MIXCDS
There are a lot of songs written about Carolines. To be honest, the amount feels disproportionate to the amount of actual Carolines I have met in real life. But some names just roll off the tongue better than others I guess.
FANDCAMP: That Bridge Washed Away In The Storm
“great discovery - please make more music. Love the chill, folksy, in-the-woods vibe”
SubmitCloud | December 2018
The Soundcloud playlist for this month’s approved Submithub submissions is now up & running for December 2018.
2 MINUTES OR LESS | #HI54MIXCDS
Sometimes you’re in a hurry and only have 2 minutes or less to get a song down your ears before you have to get back to work. Well, this playlist is chock-full of quick headphones fixes like that.
Fandcamp: WARM
“Love this new album from Jeff Tweedy. It has the melodic simplicity and catchiness of Uncle Tupelo and Wilco's early records, but with songwriting by a seasoned hand, someone who is emerging on the other side of middle age -- kids raised and out of the house, distractions receding, and existential questions front-and-center.”
CHANGES | #HI54MIXTAPES
I made this mix tape around 2011, which was around the time I was quitting a stable market research job to head back over to Europe without any plan or career path. I guess one could make the argument that I’m still on the same bullshit all these years later.
HUMANANATOMY | #HI54MIXCDS
You’ll never really understand how your body works, but it’s important to be reminded about all the parts so you don’t lose touch with the fact that, for the most part, your body does work. And one can only listen to ‘Head & Shoulders, Knees & Toes. Knees. And. Toes’ so many times.
Fandcamp: Evening Machines
“As Dan Mangan returns to his roots, Isakov still ploughs his land reaping many rewards.”
HI54LO5: Joe Rogan Experience #1137 - Duncan Trussell
“Joe Rogan can be hit and miss—which would be true for any of us sharing daily 3hr conversations—but I'm a pretty consistent fan of what Duncan Trussell has to say and this chunk of their talk about socialism / intentional communities is a message more of us should be contemplating on the regular.”
FANDCAMP: days of sleepwater
“End of the night, loitering in the kitchen listening to music instead of going to sleep kinda vibes.”
