THE MIX TAPE RADIO MIX CDs | DISC 30
Here's the 30th instalment of the (mostly) bi-weekly Mixcloud series where I go back to the iTunes organizational system I had setup when I used to run a 24/7 internet radio station, and then I shuffle up a selection of 95-tracks that have been rated as 'Mix Tape Radio approved' and put together an 18-track HI54 Mixed CD.
HI54… WINTER | #HI54MIXCDS on MOUN.TOWN/FM
When trying to put together a playlist that "sounds like winter", sometimes it is best not to think too much about what *exactly* that means, and instead just go with what feels "winter-like". These songs feel like that to me.
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT WHEN I GET A SONG APPROVED BY YOU ON SUBMITHUB? | #HI54FAQU

THE HI54 HOT 95, EH | >1 MILLION MONTHLY LISTENERS
I started playing around with sorting my Spotify ‘liked’ music by monthly listener counts, and since I’ve accumulated + continue to accumulate a lot of ‘liked’ music, I thought it might be interesting to keep ongoing 95-track playlists for certain listener thresholds. This one is for those with more than 1 million monthly listeners.
