September Mix: Bullet Time

Inspired by my girl group listening a few posts back, I thought I'd make a mix of my faves. Then I decided to throw in some Motown and Stax stuff. Even stretched a bit to some Doo Wop and some 70s soul. Maybe even a little disco. This is what I got. 150 songs and 6.5 hours of pure goodness. At the start, I tried to arrange the order of the tracks, but it was too much. If you're gonna listen to it, best to use shuffle/random play and just turn that shit up.
August Mix: The Rise & Fall of Sanctuary Moon

Hi, here's your mix for August. Because Spotify sucks, it's missing a couple of superb songs (Curve's Missing Link and Morpheme's Infection). And then, the acoustic version of Julia Michael's Lie Like This isn't available on the platform, so we get the original album version, which is still a great vibe, but a different vibe. Sucks that Spotify is the easiest way to get these out there, but that's a whole other conversation. Anyways, I just made this mix in the past week and a half, so it's fresh! It started out as a shoegaze mix and just turned into...

Late for this month's mix, had a week off last week, but I'm here now. Been listening to a lot of metal lately and I've been growing this playlist for a while (and I'm still adding to it). It's got a ton different styles, comment if find something you like.
June Mix: Possible RomCom Film Soundtrack

Getting this one in a few days early thanks to the long weekend. This is the second to last of the Possible Soundtracks. The previous ones are sci-fi and horror, check previous posts if you're interested those. Again, pretty simple; romcom-y type songs in my head that might work. Some you might know, others you might not. I think it all flows pretty well. Enjoy!

Coming in late for this month's mixtape. I like this one a lot, hopefully someone else out there does as well. Next month's will almost assuredly be late if life goes to plan. We'll see what happens.
