After taking it back to the classics with last week’s mix, it’s time to return hard with artists pushing limits and setting high bars in their respective scenes. Some have been doing it for years, while others are relatively new on the radar, but regardless of tenure each of the tracks below is sure to mix up stale collections in need of random infusions.
Considering the over abundance of pop and rap in recent mixes, this week’s selection is solely focused on classic artists who’ve solidified their legacy as musicians who will never be forgotten. All released sometime between 1965 and 1975, each of these songs have been played on constant rotation on FM radio stations across the country for decades, and yet somehow they never lose their touch.
The theme of this week’s mix is decidedly grounded in a relaxed mindset. Most of you probably have a play list set up that you throw on when it’s time to unwind or put your mind at ease, and each of these songs were selected to fit right in.
Musically it’s hard to point to a consistent sound from this batch of five tracks, so we’ll dismiss any claims of themes for this segment. Bouncing from Indie Rock, to Electro Pop, to Rap and back again, this collection is random, but designed to serve as a great starting point for all of you music diggers in search of new threads to mine.
