FANDCAMP: Colour Green
“German actress & folk singer recorded a capella (voice & guitar) these songs on a home tape recorder in the early 70s, they were never intended for commercial release. That explains the personal intimate nature of the songs, imagine a Leonard Cohen without the bible or literary allusions, about her friends and her own personal life at the time. Delightful.”

The long story short is that if you’re looking for a good self-quarantine project to take on, as it seems like society is going to be doing the opposite of our parents telling us to “turn off that video game and go play outside” for the next few weeks/months at least— I HI54LOFI-LY RECOMMEND that you look into hacking a Sega Mini.
HI54… GUEST MIX CD W/ MUTE FOREST
“Every summer my father would drive my sisters and I from Denver to Phoenix to stay with my grandparents. It’s a 14 hour trip and we listened to tons of music. My dad had insanely good taste. He’d play us Kraftwerk, Big Audio Dynamite, Massive Attack, The Beatles, Neil Young. It shaped me forever. So an ode to him with a mix you can drive at night to.”
