This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
The 2000s is one of those weird transition decades, where we slowly moved out of our pre-internet media consumption, some of us more slowly than others, and then, all of sudden, we started moving exponentially less slowly & suddenly everyone can download/listen/stream ANYTHING online & carry it all around in our own dang pockets! — this playlist is from that era |-> OPEN ON SPOTIFY
A monthly playlist for the Soundcloud-linked submissions that get approved on Submithub for a HI54 Mix CD feature during the month of September 2020.

In search of way to start uploading more + longer mixes to Mixcloud, I ended up rediscovering some iTunes organizational tools I had setup back when ‘Mix Tape Radio’ was a 24/7 internet radio stream, which eventually led to a new mix series idea called THE MIX TAPE RADIO MIX CDs —and here’s DISC 01.
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?
