Introducing Mixtape
I 💦 music
There was a time when discovering a song felt like an event — a friend slid a tape into a sleeve, side A’s first track became the soundtrack to a season, and the year had a sound you could go back to.
Streaming handed us every song ever sold, all at once. Quietly, it took something else away: the act of recording when a song moved you, and the place to find it again.
Mixtape is my attempt to return that act to my own listening. A time capsule of a small and honest playlist of tracks you discovered, in the order you found them — to revisit, and to share with the people whose taste you trust.
Automatically remember the songs you discover
I have been doing what Mixtape offers manually since January of 2018. I have created a monthly playlist ever since then. I created Mixtape to automate the process for me but I suspect more music lovers may want this.
