It is August 1st and the album is out and I am barely holding it together.
Mixtape Mindset is available right now on all streaming platforms and I want to tell you what this album is before you press play.
It is twelve songs that flow together as one continuous experience — the way songs on a great mixtape always belong together. Not in sections or categories. Just one song leading naturally into the next the way a really good mix always does. You let it take you somewhere.
Where? Somewhere specific. The school bus pulling away on the first day of school. The Blockbuster parking lot on a Friday night. 3am with the modem screaming and a blank CD in the drive. The living room floor on a Saturday morning with cereal and cartoons. A phone number you still know by heart that you haven’t dialed in twenty years.
This album surprised me. It started with one song and kept going until it was twelve, and somewhere in the middle I realized I was building something about memory, connection, and the specific rituals of a decade that shaped everyone who lived it.
It is funny. It is heartfelt. It will make you text someone. Go listen.
