My 2019 Mixtape is done and dusted. My boy Noah played a large role in introducing me to much of the music featured here, so big shout out to him (He also made his own mix this year - and it is fantastic). As most of you know, I make one of these mixes every year. if you need to check out older ones - click here.Though I love each of these songs dearly, my album of the year was easily Oso Oso's Basking in the Glow. I was fortunate enough to see them play with the Sidekicks this Fall and they were incredible. This new record combines loud guitars with beautiful melodies - and it scratched every itch for me. It has certainly been the soundtrack of my 2019.
(My cover was inspired by my acquisition of the Ace Frehley solo record from 1978 this year. More on that here.)
I made a handful of hard copy CDs of this mix, but it is easiest to find the mix here, through Spotify.
