This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
All in QUICK HITS
This playlist is an ongoing collection of all the songs that have ever been featured on an episode of The Mix Tape Radio Show. Well, all the songs available on Spotify, which is not quite all of them, but is still a heck of a lot of nice songs to throw on shuffle whenever the mood strikes.
“Honestly so refreshing to have an artist that reflects reality and inequalities due to capitalism. While continuing to use her platform to educate and for calls to action.”
An ongoing mix of artists from Central Europe (which I'm classifying as Austria, Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, Netherlands, and Switzerland - not because it is 100% accurate geographically, but because it makes sense with some other regional playlists I have going).
“Kool Keith is in the zone on this one. L'Orange has been in the zone for years. Nothing but win.”
Sometimes it's nice to just freestyle your own yoga routine, one that you make up with whatever yogi pose knowledge you currently have + whatever feels right with the music you're listening to. This playlist is chock-full of music that is good for that vibe.
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.
The HI54 ‘Provincial Playlists’ idea continues, this time with 95 nice tracks from 95 different artists being carefully exported from the Canadian province of Nova Scotia for your listening pleasure / headphone tourism needs.
“Every Fog Lake album is the best album, but this one might be the best of the best.”

Here is my annual ‘20X Current Year’ feature— which features 420 great tracks from 420 different releases, all from the year 2021. Because 20 x 21 = 420 and I am a crazy music blog person.
Sometimes you don't want the wheel reinvented, you just want someone else to do their version of an already solid wheel so you can take that new version of the same old wheel out for some fresh new spins around the block. Or maybe that's a rubbish analogy about cover songs and I should have just said something like "Who doesn't like a big ol' playlist full of cover songs?"
