The “mixed tape” concept has been around for quite some time. For me, it started in junior high, trying to be quick enough to catch a song from the radio onto a cassette tape to be able to enjoy it whenever I wanted it. Then it sort of morphed into making a mix of sweet songs for a boy that I felt was deserving at the time (which is still known to happen) … but for the most part these days it’s about stitching together a group of songs that will make people stop and listen. Providing another method to make better known songs and artists I believe in. Sometimes these mixes send a message, sometimes they set a mood, and sometimes, with a little patience, the universe randomly guides my mind to merge a series of songs that leaves me with a sense of accomplishment, like I’ve solved an audio Rubik’s Cube. Like so many things in life, when you just let go and step back a bit, really beautiful things can happen. I really love this mix. I hope you do too.
