Midnight Beach Mix by Youth
5 Mar
Here is a mix that should be played exactly as its title describes, on a beach (or the 6 train if you live in NYC) at midnight. It’s a great blend of new and classic synth pop songs that carry the listener through peaks and valleys. I admit that the first couple times I heard this mix that I wasn’t super into it. I was working on-location one day and this was one of the only mixes I had available on my laptop so I gave it another try and I’m really glad I did.
It’s the perfect background or driving music but every now and then a familiar song or blend will come on and make your ears perk up. There are also some really great custom mixes and blends in here that give a unique perspective on classic sounds.
