I’m going to keep today’s show notes short because it’s late and I really need to go to bed.
Each week I get anywhere from a dozen to 50 or so tracks to review for upcoming shows on solipsistic NATION. I will then load them on to my iPhone and play them at random throughout the week, or in some cases, months.
As I listen to the tracks I will give them a one to five star rating. Anything that gets one star I just delete because let’s face it, who wants to hear that dreck. Any track I find mildly interesting gets a two star rating. Tracks that I think are solid get three star rating and the few tracks I think are top notch get a four to five star rating. Ninety percent of the time it’s the tracks with a three to five star rating that make it on to the show.
When it comes time to put together a mix for solipsistic NATION I usually review the tracks that I gave a high rating to and see if I can form some sort of theme or narrative out of them.
Sometimes I will jot down notes on my iPhone which tracks I think would be great for a mix, which is how today’s show came together.
And what is the theme for today’s show? Bass! All the track’s you’ll hear on today’s show are guaranteed to make your sub woofer throb. In fact, you might want to crank your sub woofer up a notch or two for extra effect.
Okay, that’s enough for today. Time for me to saw some logs.
See you next week!
