Difficult Listening Hour 2022.07.24

Unrehearsed, seat-of-the-pants, let’s-see-what-happens mixing. You never know what might fall into one of these!

Since temperatures are supposed to be in the ’90s this coming week, the first hour is songs from the ’90s with “heat”, “hot”, “fire”, or “sweat” in the title. Then a few more songs just because I wasn’t quite ready to shut down yet.

Difficult Listening Hour 2021.01.09

Unrehearsed, seat-of-the-pants, let’s-see-what-happens mixing. This week ended up being (nearly) all ’80s alternative. Some of my favorite classics in here, and some transitions that I’m quite happily surprised by. Enjoy!

Difficult Listening Hour 2021.01.02: Happy New Year!

The first Difficult Listening Hour of the new year, and it’s all “new” music! That is, not “new” as in “newly released” or even “new to my collection” but as in “has ‘new’ in the title somewhere” (except for two, one of which is an acronym, and the other features the word ‘new’ rather prominently in the lyrics). Basically, I just did a search for ‘new’ in my music collection and then winged it from there.

Difficult Listening Hour 2020.06.06

Week sixteen of my unplanned, unrehearsed, seat-of-the-pants goofing around. As a way of getting back into practice and doing something regularly, I’ve started doing regular Twitch broadcasts, now on Saturday mid-mornings. These are the results. Anything goes.

Sounds From the Lost Abbey 10

Back in February, I took up a challenge from one of my friends (prompted by the Gigs mix I posted) to create a mix based around songs that I’d have played at the Lost Abbey, during the mid- to late-1990s. To get a little help putting together the playlist, I put out a call for requests on Facebook, and ended up with something around 14 hours of possible songs, almost entirely pulled from requests by people who used to see me spin at the Lost Abbey.

Since 14 hours is far too long to do as a single mix, I’ve broken the requests up into multiple 80-ish-minute playlists. Here’s the tenth in the series!
