Hi, thank you for taking an interest in my mixtape! I'm hosting the .mp3 files here on my website instead of using a streaming platform like Soundcloud, but this should be easier for everyone because you can download the files to your Spotify and listen to them ad-free and offline. :) You just have to enable local file storage through the app, which I will tell you how to do at the bottom of this page. If you use Apple Music it's pretty streamlined; you can just download the files and they'll open in the app. Or if you don't feel like messing with any of that, you can just stream the mix below.
I will also be recording this mix onto a very limited run of 10 translucent pink cassettes (hence the A side/B side), so if you want to get one of those when they're ready in a few weeks, drop me a line! I'm estimating they'll be ready by the end of April. I won't accept payment as it's not my music to sell -- I'm just spreading the love.
And on that note, I hope you love listening to this mix as much as I loved making it ♡

SOUNDS LIKE: round shimmering prismatic tones, deep and textural bass, mumble rap and breathy vocals in a jeweled dreamscape
TASTES LIKE: melty pink rock candy, soft and drippy, jagged in places and refractive throughout
FEATURES: Bladee, Yung Lean, Ecco2k, Ninajirachi, BABii...

"Tracing your airwaves, your neon pink, the jeweled prism,
my fingers can only press so far into your halting breath
or your lungs, I fear, would give way like the waxy skin of an apple, juices pooling on fluorescent tile.
How am I to touch such inchoate softness, this rapture that gives way to innocence..."
A NOTE FROM THE DJ:
Thank you to A and L for giving me the inspiration for this mix, and thank you Taranee, Rachel, Landon, and Zack for hanging out with me while I made it and giving me feedback. I just want to take a moment to appreciate the wonderful people in my life who inspire me and encourage me to express myself, since I know many of you will end up seeing this. I love you, thank you for being my friend! ♡
HOW TO LISTEN ON SPOTIFY:
Open your Spotify app and navigate to your settings. Under the "Apps and Devices" section you will find a toggle option for "Local audio files". Enable this option, then download the files using the links above. They should appear in a folder in your Spotify called "Local Files," and you can play them anytime ad-free because they will be downloaded locally to your device! You might have to fiddle with your file system a little to get it to show up on Spotify; navigating to the file and selecting "Open with Spotify" usually does the trick. You can do this with other songs too -- so if you have some .mp3 files from an old computer or iPod, you can upload them this way and listen to them through Spotify. Preserve the media you love! :)
