“Such sensitivity, such grace captured by the preeminent poet of our days... the guitar playing is stellar and cellular... a timeless relic of the pandemic.”
This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
THE MIX TAPE RADIO MIX CDs | DISC 05
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 05.
Fandcamp: Kept
“This fantastic band offers the best aspects of math rock and folk music. Interesting! Eloquent! Technical! Innovative! Sincere! Relatable! These people are genius.”
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ ELSKAVON & JOHN HAYES
“Exercise, get outside and stay active. I think as artists we can loose sight of the world beyond our DAW, studios and music in general. There’s a whole world out there that wants to get explored, you just might find some inspiration while you’re out there in it.”
FANDCAMP: Projections
“Like cupping your hands to keep time from seeping through the space between your fingers. Protecting moments by staying awake, learning what everything looks and feels like in that room within the silence, and then projecting it back on the wall.”
FANDCAMP: Radiations
“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.”
EPISODE 163 | THE MIX TAPE RADIO SHOW
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’).
FANDCAMP: Arguably OK
“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.”
Hi! Here's FIVE titles FOR your Tubi Watchlist | October 2020
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…
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ SIMEN MITLID
“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).”
SubmitCloud | October 2020
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.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ BEAT RADIO
“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.”
