This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
All in QUICK HITS
Since yesterday was my birthday, I figured I’d postpone jumping back on the grind of creating new content and rather than make a new episode of the Mix Tape Radio Show I’d 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 January 2014 \m/
“Boundlessly free, euphoric? There is a grace to this music which perhaps owes a little to the fishing village in Senegal where the Wau Wau Collective congregated. If I want to feel in love with the world again, I play music like this.”
Episode 180 of The Mix Tape Radio Show features 8 gems shuffled out of the ongoing HI54 Mix CD ‘STOP TALKING… I’M TRYING TO THINK’ - ft. Haraldur Thrastarson, Michael A. Muller, Emily A. Sprague, A Winged Victory for the Sullen + a bunch more lost-in-thought-flavoured headphone goodness.
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/

“Perfectly unhurried and introspective indie rock to be played with the windows rolled down on long deserted highways.”
Nothing fires up the travel memories / fantasies like putting on some tunes that are in a language you don't fully understand. Close your eyes and all of the sudden you're in France or Spain or whatever language that one is. Works best if you're a philistine like me who can only speak one language.
Episode 177 of The Mix Tape Radio Show features 8 gems shuffled out of the ongoing HI54 Mix CD ‘LATE STAGE CAPITALISM BLUES’ - ft. Hurray For The Riff Raff, Radiohead, Open Mike Eagle, Spanish Love Songs + a bunch more ✊-flavoured headphone goodness.
