This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
Since I have a blog that shares things I like, I figured I would start compiling monthly lists of available-on-Tubi titles that I think are worth adding to your own Watchlist, just in case anyone else out there is also looking to fish from the same free-to-stream waters. So here’s five for September…
“Words and performance that cuts like a knife. It hurts to listen to, in a good way. There is nothing else like it. Can't fit it into a pigeon holed format. It has neat jagged edges. I don't know what else to say. I just like it. And that is all!”
Episode 156 of The Mix Tape Radio Show features 8 gems shuffled out of the ongoing HI54 Mix CD ‘FROM THE SUBMITHUB ARCHIVES’ - ft. Strand Of Oaks, Gold Light, MUNYA, Karima Walker & Katy Kirby + a bunch more found-on-Submithub headphone goodness.
For when you want to keep your body motivated while doing cardio but you also want to listen to an audiobook / podcast at the same time (or just straight-up read old school style if you're on a stationary bike). Also works good if you just want to do some undistracted thinking while you get a sweat on.
The HI54 Monthly Sunday Mass Email for September 2020 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?
“Say hello to an amazing blend of blues, jazz, country, gospel, and alt-folk brilliance! Pokey LaFarge pulls off the Tom Waits trick of seeming to come from another time without sounding dated, and the songs are so cool and catchy they feel like newly-minted standards of the genre. This record's just impossibly groovy from start to finish.”
Episode 155 of The Mix Tape Radio Show features 8 gems shuffled out of the ongoing HI54 Mix CD ‘EVERYTHING LIKED IN: INSERT CURRENT YEAR’ - ft. Field Medic, Robert Chaney, Sara Rachele, Young Jesus + a bunch more 2020-flavoured headphone goodness.
“Quit your phone. Delete all the apps that aren't absolute necessities. Just do it. It's not as impossible as it feels.”
“Very relevant subjects discussed here, done in a way only this band can. Once again, Nana Grizol refuses to release anything that is less than spectacular, and I hope for many many many more releases to rate 10/10 like I have with all the other albums these beautiful people have put out.”
Throw this playlist on shuffle and let the music determine when you hit the pedals hard and how hard you hit them. If you're ADD like me, run some NBA highlights on Youtube in the background.
Episode 154 of The Mix Tape Radio Show features 8 gems pulled from my personal Bandcamp Collection - ft. Icarus Phoenix, Fighting Kites, Noname, Julia Jacklin + a bunch more Available-on-Bandcamp-flavoured headphone goodness (ps: Friday, September is another special ‘Bandcamp Friday’).
