This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
This playlist is partially made up of the music I spent countless hours listening intently to in the actual 90s and partially made up of a bunch of “discovered after the nineties” 90s music (ie. things I would have liked if we had the internet in the 90s instead of the local area FM radio stations & Columbia House mail orders for new music discovery). |-> OPEN ON SPOTIFY
“This album is a reminder that one can have many different faces and voices, and yet be completely genuine.”
“The song titles alone were enough to purchase these 9 little tracks. In all seriousness though, a really nice find from Asheville and a sound not so commonly found in that music rich blue ridge city.”
“After taking a beat to go from 'wow I can't believe that Will Smith thing happened' to 'ok but nothing to do with me', now all I can think is how I've been working on a 90s mix & listening to 'I'm All That' all weekend *LITERALLY* saying to myself "dang this song slaps".”
“Sounds simple but most people are walking around totally dehydrated. We drink sweet, salty, caffeinated, alcoholic drinks without question, but water is always like, meh. Iʼm making an effort of drinking more water every day and it helps me feel better in my mind and body.”
I asked a local cocktail lounge if they’d be interested in playing a 54-track 1970s mix cd (aka: a 3hr-ish playlist) and they said ‘ya!’ and then on Thursday March 24th, 2022 this 54-track 70s soundtrack was pressed play on at Hourglass in Kimberley, BC. And now you can press play on it too, whenever/wherever you are.
Here's the 35th 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 'Mix Tape Radio approved' tracks and put together an 18-track HI54 Mixed CD.
“I spend way too much time on chess.com. I’ve played thousands of 3 minute blitz games against people from all over the world since the pandemic started.”
“Take a month off whatever your vice or choice is. The mental/physical reset and exercise in discipline is wonderful.”
“Closest thing I've found to a Grateful Dead album. And yet, with a totally different sound and direction, but so catchy. Zamrock gold.”
“Fantastic -- as if Chrissie Hynde were backed by Crazy Horse, with incredible songwriting depth.”
