“Some classic singer-songer vibes radiating throughout — pairs so nicely with a Sunday afternoon mood that there is even a song called 'Sundae Afternoon' on it.”
This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.

Episode 163 of The Mix Tape Radio Show features 8 gems pulled from my personal Bandcamp Collection - ft. Fred Thomas, Megadead, Cut Worms, Carver Baronda + a bunch more Available-on-Bandcamp-flavoured headphone goodness (ps: this Friday, November 6th is another special ‘Bandcamp Friday’).
“There’s no arguing the rowdy country rock on this album as anything but amazing. The raucous twang meets honky punk rock hammers down harder than a 12er of banquet beers on a muggy summer sweat. Imagine all 3 Hank Williams morphed into a raspy, psychedelic orchestra kicking their shit across the Pacific NW then rubbing it in the modern face of Nashville.”
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 October…
“During these very weird months, I recommend everyone to pick up something they love to do, but maybe haven't had the time to do in a ‘normal situation’ (if it's safe and still allowed with your country's restrictions).”
A monthly playlist for the Soundcloud-linked submissions that get approved on Submithub for a HI54 Mix CD feature during the month of October 2020.
“Sounds pretty basic and obvious but I'm super aware of the connection between my own happiness/mental health and making stuff. I get joy out of completing tangible tasks with my hands. I built a table the other day.”
“This album is so good. I can't stop listening to it. Makes me want to take a road trip to Nashville.”
“There’s just something so magical about picking up a release on vinyl from your local record shop and the curated process of browsing through what a store has is an added bonus. It’s a great way to support local businesses and artists so put your mask on and go do that!”
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 03.
The HI54 Monthly Sunday Mass Email for October 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?
10 more retro titles that I’d recommend adding to your hacked Sega Mini if you’re an old millennial like me who pretty much stopped playing video games in the late 90s but is now looking to revisit that golden era of gaming with hard-to-impress 2020 glasses on (Sega Master System + Turbo Grafx-16 edition).
