“Let’s Just Chill”, the mix that started what I call the “Chillogy”.
Originally only meant to be a one off singular mix, it was created with the thought of being something you could enjoy with your significant other or just to kick back and enjoy by yourself. It brought back the soul and hip-hop sounds that were reminiscent of my earlier 2011-2012 mixes however it still manages to span several different genres. Every time I listen to it I instantly feel the vibes, this was a pure joy to put together.
The second “Let’s Just Chill” or “LJC” for short, was something I was slowly putting together over the 4 years since the original mix. 25 of the 38 songs in this mix were specifically meant to be in the 2nd mix with the remaining songs filling in where needed. Rather than make a “Special” mix, I released the mix as the 10th in the “Weekly Mixup” series. It’s a strong follow up to the original if you had to ask me :).
The third and (I believe) final in the LJC series was made as a celebration of the 150,000 listens milestone on Soundcloud. The mix was also inspired by the 2nd time I DJ’d for JMSN (So those at the show may remember some of the tunes included here). I think for a final mix it really was a great send off to the series.
*Bonus* I recorded a video of the behind the scenes of recording this mix. Now that I’m back to using the website again for content we’re one step closer to to it being shared. Stay tuned and check the “Behind the Scenes” page of the site from time to time :).
Cheers and thanks for coming along for the journey down “memory lane” with me!
