I MADE A MIX CD FOR YOUR COCHLEA. Volume 1

Mix tapes, remember those? Yeah I used to be one of those kids that had mix tapes. I’d record them off the radio when I was around 10. I’d slip the tape into my Sony Walkman and take it everywhere with me. The joy that gave me is incomparable to how music mixes are done nowadays. Today everything is computerized with playlists etc. Back then I’d sit next to the radio and press record as soon as I’d head a song I wanted…. sometimes recording over songs accidentally, or catching the last few words from the presenter’s sentence. It gave the term ‘mix tapes’ its’s charm. We were so easily amused when we were younger. This new generation is missing out! iTunes and YouTube are the Walkman killer.

Moving along… I MADE A MIX CD FOR YOUR COCHLEA. Volume 1. is the first of many volumes to come (or so I intend). Music I’ve come across over the past month. The album will take you through a journey. A bit emotional, and slow at first but the tempo gets faster, the beats get louder, and the voices get higher. The CD is a blend of indie, electronic and house. Most of the songs are new and recent from 2012; there are a few songs from 2011 that I only came across recently which I felt were worth sharing. The mood set for this album is to celebrate the beginning of Summer. It’s getting hot so its the season of minimal clothing moving forward. 22 tracks and a thumbs up to that.
