“Devotional, methodical, and meditative organ nearly divorced from cultural context. It's spiritual music that worships sound and sequence. Gorgeous.”
This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ PANTHER HOLLOW
“Go dancing to music that you don’t know.”
HI! here's FIVE things FOR consideration… | JAN 2020
The HI54 Monthly Sunday Mass Email was sent out to subscribed inboxes today. Not subscribed? Well, you can still read the newsletter + maybe if that sounds interesting it wouldn’t be the worst idea to sign-up for future monthly newsletters?
EPISODE 121 | THE MIX TAPE RADIO SHOW
Episode 121 of The Mix Tape Radio Show features 8 gems shuffled out of the HI54 Mix CD ‘HI54… THE 2010s’ - ft. Angelo De Augustine, The Magnetic Fields, Shad and Skratch Bastid, Mount Moriah + a bunch more Twenty-10s-flavoured headphone goodness.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ ALEXIS CASTROGIOVANNI
“I recommend leaving your city/dwelling place for perspective every once in a little while.“
FANDCAMP: Morbid Stuff
“Pup just keeps getting better. Morbid Stuff is their most impressive release in terms of musicianship and songwriting, without losing an ounce of the sincerity and intensity of their earlier releases. A top record of the year for sure.”
THE MONTHLY SUNDAY MASS EMAIL
Starting on January 12th, 2020, HI54 is going to start sending out ‘The Monthly Sunday Mass Email’ — so, if you’d like to receive a ‘HI! here's FIVE things FOR consideration…’ email once a month, sign-up now. I promise, if you like HI54 stuff it’ll be a nice monthly email.
FANDCAMP: Insignificance
“This immaculate album has been addictive since I first heard it, jam-packed with quirky, intelligent lyrics and colorful melodies evoking classic pop music in a timeless fashion. O'Rourke succeeds on all fronts here, creating a record that is irresistible.”
EPISODE 120 | THE MIX TAPE RADIO SHOW
Episode 120 of The Mix Tape Radio Show features 8 gems shuffled out of the HI54 Mix CD ‘420 ALL DAY’ - ft. The Finks, Mal Blum, Lovin' Spoonful, Mighty Voices of Wonder + a bunch more all-day-flavoured headphone goodness.
THE HI54 BANDCAMP SHUFFLE | December 2019
A Playmoss playlist so you can shuffle up all the Bandcamp tracks that were in the HI54 headphones during the month December 2019.
THE HI54 BANDCAMP SHUFFLE | 20X19
Every year I make a Spotify playlist based on the equation '20 X CURRENT YEAR' — which means my 20X19 playlist contains 380 tracks from 380 different releases. I figured I'd see how many of those releases are available on Bandcamp so I could make a Playmoss playlist that links to where you can buy each release. This is that.
20X19 | 380 TUNES FROM 2019
So, with that in mind, what HI54 has to offer into the end of year hullabaloo is my 20X19 playlist — which features 380 great tracks, from 380 different releases, all from the year 2019. And, as ridiculous as a 380 track playlist sounds, I promise that the real ridiculous part is how good of a listen it is all the way thru.
