a july 2026 mixtape
for about three years i've been making monthly mixtapes, gathered up out of stuff i've liked listening to that month. i make these on plex and then usually translate them to youtube, spotify, and the like. this is kind of a pain, and i feel like once it stopped feeling like everyone was on spotify it was harder to make a single public-on-the-web playlist anyone could use, so i stopped making those.
so, anyway: here's the playlist. there's a .zip of it on soulseek somewhere if you can manage that. but otherwise, like finding the kitten in the photo below, i'm leaving the rest to you.
