A monthly playlist for the Soundcloud submissions that get approved on Submithub for a HI54 Mix CD during the month of September 2019.
This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
Thoughts from a blogger @ the All-Candidates Forum in Kimberley BC (Oct 2019)
“Life doesn’t need to work as stupidly as we keep letting a very small percentage at the top continue to sell it to us. Please vote accordingly.”
FANDCAMP: Live at donaufestival
“The back-to-back punch of the last two tracks had me 'I'm not crying your crying' in the mirror. If you've spent anytime with Ben's songs (or even Ben himself) in the past, there is a lot of really special moments in this live album.”
FANDCAMP: Jaime
“First track made me wanna hit a split so hard and by the end I was ready to write a lengthy journal entry. Full spectrum.”
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ WOOZLES
“Read (and write) more poetry! I feel like poetry can sometimes be looked on negatively, especially since I think a lot of people see it as something kind of pretentious, but it’s actually so lovely!”
SHUFFLE UPDATE: September 23, 2019
Another SHUFFLE UP’D EIGHT has been pulled & this week’s featured shuffle update is from my ongoing ‘HI54… AUTUMN’ playlist — which features 95 tracks that shuffle nicely with the new vibes, leaves & clothes that come with that change over from summer to fall.
EPISODE 103 | THE MIX TAPE RADIO SHOW
Episode 103 kicks off with Haley Heynderickx plotting a garden, and before things close out with all Selmer wants, you’ll hear Bill Callahan Fighting Kites, Doctor Pockets Scuttlebuggs, and a bunch more audio niceness.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ TAYLOR VICK from BOY SCOUTS
“Doing: organized games with friends (I like ping pong, tennis). Using: the ‘do not disturb’ feature on your phone while you sleep. Thinking: nice things about your friends and telling them. Eating: kimchi.”
FANDCAMP: Then I Try Some More
“Songwriting at its best. An album of unimaginable intensity written with a surprising, straightforward honesty. Joanna Sternberg is a voice to listen and to cry with.”
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ PAUL BERGMANN
“Elevate your legs for at least 10 minutes a day. Helps relieve stress, improve circulation, and boost your mood. I've also had a lot of revelations when doing this so I equate it to a gentle high.”
SHUFFLE UPDATE: September 9, 2019
Another SHUFFLE UP’D EIGHT has been pulled & this week’s featured shuffle update is from the HI54 Mix CD ‘NOT LOST / NOT FOUND’ (which is a 95 track playlist featuring a bunch of tunes that nicely soundtrack those ‘wandering around whilst lost in your thoughts’ vibes).
FANDCAMP: Bare EP
“A beautifully arresting voice and intricate arrangements.”
