I’m turning 27 this weekend, and I thought I’d share a mix with you that I have been slaving over for the past few months. Is started out as two separate mixes: the first a collection of poppy catchy tunes, the other being a noisy racket. I started with a handful of songs for each, most of which didn’t even make the final cut after many changes (the final change being made two hours ago, when it was cut from 27 songs to 20.)
So, over time, the initial concept (poppy mix being 17 songs, noisy 10) comes to a leaner 20. 11 form the first part, while the noisy, in your face catastrophe I tried to build ended up at 9. That one was supposed to be only 10 songs to begin with, and it was a struggle to find 10 that I would classify as “punches in the face” or something. It went from being a bunch of short concise songs battling for space with longer songs to what it is: 31 minutes of what I think is something interesting to listen to. Maybe?
