Hello, hope everyone is enjoying the mix! I thought I
would attempt to give an explanation to the assemblage
of these seemingly random songs. Originally I was
going to title this mix, “penguins on the equator” (to
juxtapose the month of January, coldness of winter,
etc. and it so happens the typical January has yet
occur (here), so I abandoned this idea). I planned to
strictly use tropicalia music, but I decided to infuse
and tie to together with music that influences one
another, for instance: Tropicalia has ties to the
psychedelic and experimental genres which tie into
some folk which tie into regional music…even though
this may not flow together in a traditional sense – I
believe it flows in sort of an evolutionary sense?
Hmm…maybe. Well, in any case, I hope it is appreciated
in some way. I look forward to next month!
